Prep work for polishing!!
No pictures while polishing, because we were both busy at work
Then waxing!
The finished product
Things we used
Took 6 hours...it was most epic. Had white spot burger afterward, which was also pretty epic. Ken did an amazing job polishing my side skirts, not to mention that I learn a lot of new things! One thing that freaks me out when we were detailing was the amount of attention he paid to doing things right...I thought I was anal...lol
Just a little background info on my friend, Ken, who does detailing for fun. This is pretty much his part time job, so you if you are local in the greater Vancouver area, and you want your car detailed, PM me! Just trying to help a friend to spread the word that helped me! I hope this doesn't violate any forum rules, if so, I will take this bit off!
Thanks for viewing!

It was really cold outside, so we decided to wash the car in the garage as their was a drainer just out outside. And yes, we used warm water! We used a foam gun, it was fun to use lol

Thanks for all the kind comments. The point of this detail was to get it ready for winter, against all the shit from the roads!

Thats what I like to see. Guys out there in November polishing and waxing! The Colli 845 is a great choice for winter protection. How did you guys like the Gilmour Gun? I havent had a chance to test one yet.
