    02 Accent

    This is a daily drive 2002 Accent with 160k on it. It looked really good from a distance. Once you get up close you can see it was swirled like no other. In the last 3 years it has never been properly washed. Driven through car washes and the "wax" of choice was Meguiars Quick Detailer wiped off with a cotton towel. Well onto the pics. One day I promise guys I will learn to take pictures.


    Washed with ONR
    Clayed with Clay Magic Blue and ONR
    Tires, wheels and wheel wells cleaned with Zep Citrus and ONR
    Tires dressed with FK 350
    Wheel wells Armor All spray
    Window cleaned with FK 228 window cleaner
    PC 4" Orange LC Flat pad speed 6 M105
    PC 4" White LC Flat pad speed 5 3 passes speed 3 2 passes M205
    PC 4" Black LC Flat pad speed 4 Prima Amigo
    Meg D151 on the plastic around mirror, wiper cowl, trim around windows and B pillar
    The cowl was real bad had bad water spots and very faded, used the 151 to clean it up then applied FK 350
    Optimum Opti Seal
    Optimum Car Wax
    Lots of Vroom Drying towels
    Lots of Superfly and Shag Rag Microfiber towels from the Rag Shack

    Headlights polished with
    PC 3.5" PFW pad and 105
    4" LC Oranage pad 105
    4" LC white pad 205
    FK1 1000p

    Nice cleanup. Good job in getting rid of the swirls and polishing out the headlights. Does the car have a clearcoat?
