    owner had never left his car with anyone alone ever ever, kinda meant alot to me that he trusted me with the car.. he left pretty satisfied though!

    Pictures look good, what lens did you use? But more importantly what products/process did you use?

    lens is a nikkor 28-85mm
    my process was,
    I sprayed her down with a power washer real thoroughly
    Mixed some meg's gold class wash in the detergent attachment and sprayed down again
    Washed the car with a sheepskin wash mitt with 2 bucket method
    Cleaned the wheels, with a wheel brush and some mf towels
    Dried the car down with a shammy and mf towels
    Polished with Meg's off the shelf ultimate compound
    Polished the Exhaust with Mother's Alum/Mag Polish
    Then waxed with Meg's nxt 2.0
    Final wipedown with Meg's ultimate quik detailer.

    Meg NXT 2.0 is a great LSP, does not get much attention around here though. The car looks great keep it up

    i looked through the site, so if im correct 901 for wash, 501 for the polish/cleaner topped off with 105 for protection, should i get the pre polish bonding agent?

    =] i hope to get better and better, i ve always washed my car religiously, and now just started to explore detailing, it always amazes me the depth of any hobby or career, weather it be cars, photography, detailing... so little time to much to learn!

    will be placing an order for a gallon of each... dg 105,501,901,and 951 =] , ive read some threads saying its good for light colored cars, i have a pearl white and silver car, so i guess i can experiment on my own cars ^^

    Looks good. However, you ONLY used Ultimate compound? With a machine or by hand? Either way, it's probably gonna to leave holograms that you should never leave on a car and always follow up.
