I'm pretty **** excited for tomorrow. Going to do the first car that's not mine, so couldn't wait till tomorrow to start the topic, will get pics up as soon as it's done tomorrow Gear is already packed in my car, everything has been cleaned up, and is ready to go!
Wish me luck!! And watch for updates!!!
Update: So the car was BADLY scratched up, there was a ton of overspray everywhere! (He was quoted 300 - 400 dollars to get the overspray removed too!!), broke out the SSR, SHR, and FMP, but didn't manage to get it perfect. Sadly, the heat in Texas killed me today, and ended up extending the job to many hours more than it needed to be with the constant feeling of passing out It looks alot better, but it's far from perfect... I'll post the pics in a later post (in a few minutes).
Process (Products - All Adams) :
1) Wheels (Wheel Brush, Fender and Tire Brush, PowerStick, Green Wheel Cleaner, Under Carriage Spray, APC)
2) Wash Engine Bay (Fender and Tire Brush, APC)
3) Hose Down, and Wash (Buckets, Grit Guards, Car Shampoo, Large Wash Pad, Small Wash Pad)
4) Dry (Detail Spray, Great White Drying Towel)
5) Clay, and Wipe Down (Detail Spray, Clay, MF Towel)

6) Polish (PC 7424, SSR + Pad, SHR + Pad, FMP + Pad, MF Towel, Detail Spray)
7) Wax (Americana, Double Soft MF Towel)
8) Plastic Bits and Engine Bay (In and Out Spray, VRT, Sponge Block, Tire Applicator, MF Towel)
Things I Need To Work On:
* Polishing: Need to get better and work on my process (SSR vs SHR vs FMP, order of use, number of passes)
* Glass: Need to get the Glass Cleaner, and Sealant
* Interior: Didn't even touch this, should probably start working on that at some point too
