2014 MINI COOPER Baker Street Edition - Mckee's Freshening
Sorry, this is more of a glance and shine as I did not take pictures during and snapped a few quickly after I was done.
This is a friends car, whom I told her Id wax it for her. She ran the car through a car wash before she came over. Once it got to my house I pulled it into the garage. After a minute of using my Nanoskin sponge, I realized this car needed more serious paint decontamination. I pulled the car back out, grabbed the McKee’s 37 Xtreme Iron Remover dissolves corrosive iron particles so your paint is smooth and glossy and gave the car a spray down. It turned purple of course. She was amazed.
While the car was outside, I hit the wheels to with the Iron Remover, and then gave them a quick spritz of McKee's 37 Hydro Blue Sio2 Coating . Always fun to see someones face when they see the difference that happens in 15 seconds.
I pulled it back inside and continued the decontamination process. Just those two steps, on a white car made a world of difference. I literally could have stopped there and she was already blown away.
I pulled out my PC7424XP with orange thin pro pad, and went over the car with McKee's 37 360 Corrects, Cleans, Seals 360 corrects, cleans, and seals auto paint! 360 is more than a cleaner wax, its a swirl remover, polish, and . It got 60% of the swirls and scratches off, cleaned the paint even more, and added a nice bit of shine while adding protection. This truly is a super easy product to use. While I was working on the paint, I put my friend to work on all the plastic trim with McKee's 37 Plastic Trim Restorer
These are the only two not so great after photos I took. I do want to point out one thing though. On the hood, I used the 360 on the vinyl stripes as well. They were badly faded, almost gray. 360 brought them back to life, safely.
A close inspection would still reveal some swirls and scratches, but making a show car finish wasnt what I was after. Just tried to freshen up her car as quickly and effectively as possible. All Mckee's37 products performed as intended and easily at that.

I'm sure it's a HUGE improvement. I hope she stays away from swirl-o-matics from now on. Do people always park on sidewalks in Miami?

Yes, why?

Looks great, although in my experience that car will need more attention paid to under the hood than it ever will need on the paint
