Thanks guys, the detail is done and it couldn't have been better weather to do it other than the sprinkle of rain yesterday. It will be a year till the car gets detailed like this again. In 6 months I'll winterize but no paint correction. Though I would hardly call what I do correcting paint, I'm too much of a pansy to go aggressive on my paint. Below is the list of what I did for this detail, all together I invested 16 hours over 5 days...
