The Worst Car on AG - Trashed and Neglected, Washed 2 Years Ago - V7 Hybrid, Collinite Marque D'Elegance, Collinite 845 (Many Pics)
This car is owned by a friend and it was last washed about 2 years ago . Unfortunately, he doesn't care about his car whatsoever, and it's obviously a daily driver. The Toyota was covered with grime, salt, sand, bird droppings, water stains, scratches, and almost everything else you could imagine. I am definitely interested in reading your responses regarding experiences like these! I do this on weekends as a hobby, and this is the first time I've seen something like this.

Anyways, he asked me to detail his car since he will be trading it in/selling it to buy a new car. The car has about 190,000 miles. Well, I got to work, and it took about 18 hours to complete This is a brief summary of what I did:
-Griot's Garage 6" Orbital, Meg W-8006, Meg W-9006, GG Poilishing Pad, and GG Finishing Pad.
1- Presoak and Full Pressure Wash
2- 2 full washes using Meguiar's Gold Class and microfiber wash mitt
3- Gold Class Clay Bar
4- Compound @ 5,500 RPM
5- Polish @ 5,000 RPM
6- Collinite 915 Marque D'Elegance (what a beast!) @ 3,000 RPM
7- Collinite 845 @ 2,000 RPM
8- Another layer of Collinite 845 @ 2,000 RPM
9- Sealant CG V7 Hybrid
10- Dressing, tire shine, etc.
11- Interior air blasted, vacuumed, foamed, dressed, etc.
I'll let the pics speak for themselves!
