Boy what a day, first I cleaned the engine with P21S total wash, than I removed the wheels and cleaned them with P21S wheel cleaner , at this stage my back was already killing me(got burried in a trench back in 1993 and my back was never the same), than I cleaned the door jams and bellow the trim line with Mothers California Gold Wash, than I washed the whole car again, I like to do it this way, it keeps my wash mitt away from the dirty zones:xyxthumbs , after I clayed the car with Mothers Clay:xyxthumbs I did it the BillNorth way:bow it works great, than came the Polish, I used 3M Perfect -it 3 Machine Glaze I used my Cyclo Polisher to apply it with the green pad wich I ended changing to the Yellow I did not think the green was doing a very good job at removing the swrills, I buffed the car with a terry cloth.



Tomorrow I will apply Zaino , Mothers Preserve Protectant on the trim and the glass will be cleaned with Mothers glass cleaner.



The interior I'll do next week:xyxthumbs



Am I covering it all or have I left any steps undone? Also correct my wrongs:wavey



PS: All this was done on the Explorer:xyxthumbs
 
:oSORRY ABOUT THAT ONE SCOTT, I DID ASK TO HAVE MY WRONGS CORRECTED :D :D
