Well, I did it. I got the big beast ready for my bride to drive with pride.

Here's the process:

1) Nero'd the interior (dash etc) with a little slick for the 'wood' bits
2) two bucket was with P21 total autowash to get off any wax/hydro residue.
3) clay with megs white
4) Black wow on the exterior trim
5) epic with my new PC from Octane Guy

will get pictures on soon but finished after dark last night and the sun wasn't shining when I left the house at 0530 this morning.

Just got to get the leather seats and wheelshield the wheels but I's too tired to do them for a day or two.

Wow, that looks amazing. How many hours did it take you so far?

 

What did you think of the P21S Total Autowash? I've got some coming.
Your Wife should be proud to tool around town now! Looks great.

 

Thanks. THe p21 worked pretty good. It wasn't like washing with Mystique but it seemed to take off everything pretty good, especially bugs. It also seemed to work really well on brake dust on the wheels.

I spent about 2 hours washing and claying a little over half the car in the morning. Finished up the clay in the garage during the afternoon so another 45 minutes or so (didn't look at the time but couldn't have been too long). The wax with the PC went really quickly - just about 25 minutes. I was trying to finish before dark but wanted to be sure and do it right. So a little under 4 hours for the whole thing I guess.

 

nice job, cadfael! that's a nice looking suv.
