Well the pics will have to wait till tomorrow due to darkness. I owed my wife a detail on her car and since she's out of town I used the day to make her ride look new. It's a 2006 Lexus GX470 SUV metal flake green.

Got a late start due to cold weather but finished in about 5.5 hours right before darkness set in.

Pressure washed with CG HoneyDew
2 bucket wash
Clayed, rinsed and leaf blower dried
RB hex white pad BL ploish
PC hex black pad BL polish
V07 wipe down/buff
Bare Bones on fender wells
Natural Shine on black trim/tires
Light interior clean up; windows, vacume etc.

My go to combo is M105/205/Col845 but today I tried Chemical Guys BL/V07. Gotta say I was pretty impressed. Tried their Hex Pads as well. I think I may prefer them to the LC CCS pads. I even tried some diluted APC+ on a couple carpet stains and it worked great maybe even better than Simple Green.

Overall I think BL/V07 is a great combo, very easy to work with.

Okay still getting the hang of posting pictures. I didn't have a lot of time to take them and there wern't any clouds in the sky for better reflection shots. Overall like I said BL/V07 did a nice job.

Thanks guys I appreciate the compliments.

cartman57 I saw that reflection after returning home so I broke the DSLR back out. The color saturation looked pretty good.

DaveT435 & Jrocket thank you. Not bad for a 100K mile 6 year old daily driver. Trying to keep the wife happy, better than buying a new car. This economy is tough enough :dblthumb2:!
