That was the most informative post I have ever seen! Thanks for the great write up and for sharing soooo many of you techniques. I now feel so much more confident to properly detail any car because of your awesome post! :props:

What products did you use? Hand or machine application? Did you learn anything new while doing these two vehicles and did you encounter any obstacles while restoring the finishes?

I think he's looking for some products that you used, any personal experiences with said products on the cars that might be unique. Also what process did you use on the cars? As far as we can tell you washed the G35 and did a 1 step on the caddy.

Just looking for more info is all.

EDIT: Nick got to it before I did.

It is Show N' Shine. Not "tell us how you did it". Take it easy there, Dr. Oldz. Op, it is helpful to get a little info on technique, products, etc. But thanks for sharing. The cars look really shiny.

both cars got the same process:P

here it is:

ONR wash
remove old wax with IPA 35%
clay with claymagic and ONR at 64-1 as clay lube
polish with M205 on a white pad with my GG
seal with poliseal

caddy was the first time i did a paint correction on single stage paint, i thought it would be softer than it was. also gummed up my pad pretty bad
