Default About to go all out

In preparation for the Winter weather I am going to be doing some serious detailing.

I plan to start off with doing some paint correction by doing some swirl removing. I previously purchased this kit:

* In preparation of that I will be giving the car a full bath in Dawn to remove any tough contaminates.

* Then clay the entire car with this:

* Then a quick wash in dawn again.

* Then into the polishing starting with the Meguiars 105 compound first on the orange pad then followed up with the 205 compound finishing glaze on the grey pad.

* After polishing is complete It will get a fine mist of:

To remove any excess polishing residue

* Finally I will begin with applying the final polishing glaze (3 coats):

* After that is complete it will get the final sealing coat to lock in gloss / wetness:

* For some final clear coat protection it will get a coat of:
http://www.zainostore.com/Merchant2/...roduct_Count=6

This is going to require A LOT of time, probably 20hrs+. Will be a 2 day+ job I am sure. I will probably have to break my efforts into stages which unfortunately will require more washes but the end result should be stunning.

I will be starting this on my vacation I have coming up on the 21st.
