After spending a week cleaning, polishing, sealing, and waxing it is FINALLY done. Myself being a student, I had testing the week I was doing the car. Luckily it was my dads and he didn't need it for anything special. Now I know these photos aren't great, but this is my first correction, and doing it on the hard clear of this corvette was tough.

Wash
-2BM w/chenille MF washmit. Combo of CG Citrus Wash&Gloss and Dawn. Dried using shop-vac and plush MF towel.
-CG Sticky Wheel Gel 4:1 on wheels and exhaust tips.
-Simple Green 3:1 for wheel wells. Then 10:1 for engine bay wipe down.

-Clayed with CG Luber and CG Light Claybar. Wheels, exhaust tips, windshield, and headlights were clayed also.

Polishing
-M105 w/LC Purple Foamed Wool:7424XP
-M105 w/CG Hexlogic Orange Pad:7424XP
-CG NO.728(Paint Correction 1) w/LC CCS Black Pad:7424XP

Protection
-2 layers of BFWD sealant. Let cure 12 hours before reapplying.
-2 layers of BFMS Carnauba. Let bond for 3 hours before reapplying.

Interior
-CG Leather Cleaner 6:1 on leather seats, dash doors, etc.
-Simple Green 5:1 for carpets.
-CG VRP Dressing for all plastics and rubber.
-CG Leather Conditioner for leather seats and steering wheel.
-CG Window Clean for interior and exterior glass.

Engine bay, tires, and all other exterior trim was dressed with CG VRP Dressing. And wheels and exhaust tips were coated with CG Wheel Wax.

Yeah real hard clear. But with the products on the market today, beginners like me are able to get good results as you can see. :dblthumb2:
