we started out TT very late & only have 2 hours plus

so what we cover

Basic car wash _ the most important of car detailing - begin with a humble wash

Proceed to clay (ONR 2 ounce dilutes in 500ml water) as lubrications the least aggressive but most effective (cost saving & good ROI) - it also prolong yr clay life spent , as most shampoo degrades & break it...

Moving on engine - spot cleaning - (optimum power cleaner) the far most better cleaner i ever use - so strong that can use as degreaser but so gentle can be diluted & safe for car paint & leather (safe for clear coat) i like to dilute 1:5 for engines & 1:8 for interior & leather cleaning

Paint correction - product comparison (between OTC & professional range)
*
Started with consumer product - OTC
proceed to Polish - Optimum hyper spray polish & M205
proceed to compound - Megs 105

*part 2 (advance level)
Wet sanding - levelling paint coat


ending with - LSP (protection)
10 minutes optiseal ( a prefect bonding & protection )5 minutes car wax by OCWax

ended past midnight




after Optimum power clean - dilution 1:5 parts water ( we are only going to do a spot cleaning test)

Wow those first pictures of the landscape were stunning. Beautiful country.

Really nice job on the cars as well! I've never seen that pigmentation stuff before, nice job removing it!

Also, it looks like a Galant VR4 to me. Not sure though.

KC, I love seeing your work. A real inspiration. I notice you use Optimum Spray Compound and Polish with great results. I plan on getting some as soon as warmer weather gets here. I've read where other people have had trouble with their sprayer getting stopped up and breaking. My question is how do you keep yours working properly? Is there a secret you can share with us?
