    This was a detail that I tried to book with an Audiworld member 2 1/2 years ago but we just never could get a date.

    Anyway this car needed some TLC. Tons of swirls and light scratches as this is the customer's daily driver and unfortunately it sits outside 365 days a year.

    So we cleaned it up with Menzerna Power Gloss compound with an orange ccs pad followed it with Menzerna SIP with a white pad and then finished with Menzerna PO85RD with a blue pad. For our last step we used Swissvax cleaner fluid to prep the paint for Swissvax Divine.

    Tools and products used:
    Take a look:

    Exterior:
    Optimum Power Clean
    Optimum Instant Detail Spray
    P21S Autowash
    P21S Wheel Cleaner Gel

    Menzerna Power Gloss Compound
    Menzerna SIP
    Menzerna PO85RD
    Menzerna Top Inspection
    Swissvax Paint Rubber
    Swissvax Quick Finish
    Swissvax Cleaner Fluid
    Swissvax Divine
    Swissvax Autobahn (for the wheels)
    Swissvax Pneu (for the tires)

    Tools:

    Uber Drying Towels

    A+ work as always!

    As for the Cam PW, I would highly recommend it. Its just like the Karcher, but much more water flows through it and it cleans a heck of a lot better.

    The cannon foams better too! Its a solid machine and it cant compare to the Karcher!

    I am seriously considering it. First I need to measure the distance from my laundry room to my driveway to make sure the cord will reach. This is the only place where I would be able to plug in this thing.
