Well, I got the car clayed down and realized it's scratched to #### (swirls, hazing). I got lazy this winter and took it through the car wash
Before
You can see the swirl marks banging off the shop light...
Here's your after shot
Clay
Meguiars Diamond Cut 2.0 On a yellow CCS pad
Pinnacle XMT #3 on an orange CCS pad
3m Finesse-itII Final Polish (white pad)
P21s Paintwork Cleanser
P21s Carnuaba Wax
Good bye swirl marks.... (****ers)

Well, I just finished claying, compounding the car with diamond cut 2.0 and a woolie (I highly recommend the diamond cut 2.0. Awesome product. Cuts pretty hard on hard clears such as Audi's, Mercs, Bimmers, etc.... BUT>>>does not leave deep swirls (nothing terrible, lol, XMT #1 fixed it) even with a woolie. Here's a quick pic with the cell. I am going to lay down meg's polymer sealer then p21 both by hand when I'm finished then she should really pop.
My buddy casey is bringing his digicam over this weekend when I do his galant (needs TLC BADLY) This cell phone doesn't do my hardwork justice but it will have to suffice.

A few more from the peanut gallery. Damnit I need a digicam so you can really see how pimp ass flossin this car really is.
I have just a few products (these aren't all, all of my buffers, (pc DA and rotary (broken right now) as well as all pads and mechanical solvents are stored on the north side of the garage) this is the west side of the garage)
Good luck finding most of this #### at your local pepboys
Uh oh, sealant is going down

Those pics look better . A Galant hmm? I have a 92 Galant, what year and model Galant you gonna be giving some TLC to? You must love that P21S paint cleansing lotion. What's your favorite way to apply it? I have a bottle but still don't know the correct way to use it, I've tried rubbing it in till it's almost dry, spreading product and letting it dry on its own, using a little product, using a little more product, well that's about it, but I haven't played around with it much.

I apply it by hand with a wolfgang applicator (the orange side). I rub it till it starts to haze a little bit. You have to make sure you're doing verticle/horizontal wipes, if you do circular wipes you'll get some minor marring. Awesome products. Paintwork cleansing lotion can also be applied with a white polishing pad after compounding/pre wax
