just finished detailing the mugen for the first time, check her out!!!

steps i did,
-Wash/dry car,
-Drive to the local (self)car wash b/c i dont have a covered area at my place)
-took a quick run though the touchless wash (just to get off anything that might have gotten on the car on the way over)
-Dry her again
-Clay bar
-DC1 cleaner
-#7 glaze
-NXT2.0 for great protection
-DC3 final to give that deep look
-Vinylex on plastic/rubber parts
-Black Magic Gel on tires (I love shinny tires, but i need to get better stuff)

All done by hand, no DA polisher yet.

Dont have an issue out of the gel stuff, tends to stay in place, I put it on before i started waxing to give it time to dry.

I might try Vinylex on the tires next time to see how that looks.

Spray??? you still use tire shine in a spray??? NoOb!!!! The gels/wax like tire shines dont spin off if you give it 30 mins to dry.

I always feel like the biggest freaking detail tard on the 8th. My version:
-Go to self wash with a bucket, car soap, brush, and spounge
-Wet car
-1. Soap car. 2. Try and get it clean
-Brush wheels
-Spray car again, and look for dirty spots before the water timer runs out
-Tire shine
-Leave
That must be why my car looks like shit compared to everybody elses

all depends on what channels you want. we dont do internet so you would still need charter or embark(or whatever their name is)
