Default Detail: 2002 Corvette
This was your typical 5 year old dark colored paint. Had some slight hazing and moderate spider webbing.

I started with a wash using Auto Magic EZ suds
Clayed
Rewashed with EZ suds
First stage was with Auto Magic XP Compound(Yellow pad on setting 5 with PC)
Second stage was with Auto Magic BC-2(White pad on setting 5 with PC)
Final coat was with Auto Magic Wet Wax(Blue pad on setting 5.5 with PC)
All trim, fender wells and Tires dressed with Auto Magic Dressing

Interior wiped down with Auto Magic Triple Seven and leather treated with Auto Magic leather conditioner

I wish...no I still haven't gotten anything to replace the SS. I've been detailing cars on the weekend for about 3 years now.
