I tried to get a quick detail in before the 400mi round trip to the water park w/ the wife and kids.
I work night shift 7p-7a. I got home around 0800, did the two buckets wash.
Meg ultimate wax and wash soap
Quick clay(Mothers clay from Advance auto)-car brand new but still see some dirt on the clay
Dry w/ stihl handheld gas powered leaf blower and MF
Ate breakfast and went to bed at 1000
Got up at 1530 and hit the car again.
First i california duster it real quick
Then hit it w/ CG Black light+Tangerine 5 1/2 x 7/8 inch Hydro-Tech Low Profile Pad using flex 3401(got it the day before)
I used medium pressure and hope it got some polish power in it(so i read)
Wipe it off w/ CG V7 because some of the BL dried up and hard to buff off w/ only MF towel.
By this time, it's almost 1800 and i had to get ready to go to work. Luckily my co-worker is driving today. We carpool to save gas :)
Here are a few pictures

These picture below were taken the morning before the 200mi drive to the water park. It was extremely cloudy. I got home from work around 0800, went in the garage, cali duster it, and then spray some CG V7 on it. This time i did the whole car, including windows and rims, headlight w/ V7.
The tires needed some shine because i didn't have time the day before. I mixed some PERL 1:1 and shine the tires w/ 3 coats w/ the ~20 min between the coats.

200mi drive and the weather clear up real well. Everybody is happy and i'm happy w/ the nice shine. However, i hit some light rain on the drive over. I'll take some post trip picture of the tires and see if the PERL hold up
