On today's schedule I had a Red Chrysler 200 convertible to do. The customer just wanted a nice wash and wax to add some pop to the paint and have the inside vacuumed and wiped down.

The car itself is not look bad from far away but upon closer inspection there were many swirls and RIDS. The paint was a little rough so a clay was in order as well. Going with what my customer wants I give it my all as always and here is what I did:

Exterior
Wash with foam gun and 2BM Optimum Car wash
Wheels cleaned with Megs Wheel Brightener
Tires scrubbed with Megs APC+ 10:1
Wheel wells cleaned APC+ 10:1
Clayed paint with Nanoskin Auto scrub pads and G110v2
CG Black light application via DA with MF finishing pad
Sealed with Blackfire Wet Diamond Paint Sealant
Tires dressed with Hyper Dressing
All trim and chrome dressed
windows cleaned

Interior
All surfaces cleaned with Meg Quik Interior Detailer
Cup holders cleaned
Windows cleaned with DP Krystal Vision Glass Cleaner
Door Jambs wiped down with APC+ then V7
Floor and seats vacuumed

Looks great Evan.

How did Blacklight behave on the MF finishing pad?

Looks nice. What is the exact color? It has an interesting tone - not red but not the wine color.

Thanks Mike!

It was just fine. I have been using that combo on a few cars now and have nothing but good success. I use it with my G110v2 and setting 2-3 and go to work. I tried BL by hand on a hood was too much of a hassle so I have this a go and have had nothing but great turn outs. :props:

Sounds great Evan. I would have never thought of using BL on a MF pad.

Now using BL by hand, thats a different story. I dont bother doing it this way.
