Couple pics after a cs detail

I had forgot the memory card for my camera, I had to use the neighbors. Wasn't able to snap any befores as a result. I basically did a few quick shots w/ the neighbors camera as the owner arrived to pick it up and just as I had finished working on it. It took forever to get the pics.... and now when I did get them, I'm a little annoyed b/c they're very blurry. Anyway, I finished kinda late in the day, so I'm glad they turned out this well I suppose. Heres what she got:

prespray w/ an APC mixture
wash w/ super slick n suds
clay w/ fine grade clay
rewash w/ super slick n suds
Optimum Compound on UDM w/ Orange Pad
Optimum Polish on UDM w/ Blue Sonus Pad
then finished w/ collinite 476.


again, sorry for not having good/before afters.

Noticed you are local and wanted to see if you wanted to meet up? Have the same exact CS but had my H & Rs removed due to the ride and wanted to catch up with you. How have your spacers been treating you and what size are they? Also, wht detailing products/detailers do you use. Again, car looks fantastic.

Have a good new years.

Very nice Chris!

I'm curious, is it necessary to use compound on what is basically new paint or did you already have light scratches on the paint?

I've owned a black car in the past so I do know how hard it is to keep it looking good. Good job!

That looks great! Definitely reminding me it's time for a wash and detail.
