Emperor Ming Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Just spent two days sorting out my mates Shogun. When it turned up I thought it was black LOL Turns out its a nice metallic blue. Outside. Pressure rinse, snow foam(cherry), pressure rinse, wash (meguirs shampoo), rinse, clay bar, wash (meguirs), pressure rinse, sonus no3 with the porter cable polisher, lots of buffing, hand polished with autoglym (i know its not flavour of the month but I like it and on a good surface it comes up well) P21 Carnuba wax to finish (again by hand) All exterior trim with meguirs tyre shine on a cloth by hand. Inside lots and lots of vaccuuming and time with my little detailing tool. Auto glym vinyl treatment. All leather cleaned (auotglym leather cleaner) and then treated (Autoglym leather treatment cream.) Just short of 14 hrs work and 30 cups of tea!! here's a few pics to show the results of my efforts. As I got her cleaning her My new tool for little nook and crannies after 1st proper wash And some shiney stuff my favourite a couple more Ming the tired Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emperor Ming Posted September 19, 2009 Author Share Posted September 19, 2009 nice!!!!! what sort of compund/pad mix did u use?!?!? god dayum i need that dyson tool. where to get it from!?!?!? ho the confused sonus 3 compound with a yellow sonus pad and worked the polish hard at 4500 rpm. Then sped it up to 6000 when the polish turned and then cloth polished the residue. The paint corrected quite well and as such I hand applied autoglym and the carnuba wax. That little tool came from ebay with a few other little attachments and plugs into any hoover mate. £9:99 if my memory serves me correctly and great for air vents and those annoying little bits by the seatbelts and chair sides that you cant get to. saw the shogun again today and although a little dusty it still looked good next to all the other vehicles. My mate has a 5 litre 7 series BMW and I soooooooo want to do his car. It would look a million dollars if done properly as opposed to looking like a skip refugee.
