Detailed A Mini

This was the dirtiest MINI I've ever seen. Ugh. Took my most of the day just to get all the mud, dirt and debris off the car. This was a two day job, and I am pretty happy with the results.

BEFORE:








AFTER:

Used Poorboy's wax for the first time on this project. I love how it felt. Great wax if you like working it in with your hands.















Products Used:
Zaino Z-7 Shampoo
P21S Paintwork Cleaning Lotion
Meguiar's Aggressive Clay Bar
Meguiar's M105 on an Orange Cutting Pad
Meguiar's M205 on a Grey Polishing Pad
Zaino Z-2 Show Car Sealant
Poorboy's World Natty's Blue Carnauba Wax
My "Special Blend" for all black trim
P21S Cockpit Cleaner
Cole Haan Leather Cleaner/Conditioner
Wurth Glass Cleaner
Wolfgang Plastik Lense Glaze

Looking good! I just detailed my wife's MINI over the weekend as well. That also was a 2 day job.

Thanks everyone. This is the 4th MINI that I've done. I'm always amazed at how long they take to do.
