I had a LOT of work to do with this client's car.


Some of the scratches are beyond the clearcoat, and into the paint.

Naturally, all Meguiar's stuff...

Ultimate Compound (3x)
SwirlX (2x)
Swirl Free Remover 2.0 (2x)
NXT Tech Wax 2.0 (3x, 4x on hood)
Quik Detailer
Flagship Marine #69 Aerosol Quik Wax
Endurance High Gloss Tire Shine
Superior Shine Interior Protectant
Flagship Marine #67 One Step Compound/Cleaner Wax


Bar Keeper's Friend (to polish the windshield)
Cascade dishwasher detergent mixed with Dawn (to shampoo the carpet and seats)
Tide to wash the floor mats
Mr. Clean Magic Eraser for the Alcantara seats.

I noticed before that you use the Marine aerosol quick wax. What is the benefit of marine wax, more durability?

Exactly. I usually just use it on the bottom halves of the doors, the hood, and the roof. Anywhere that's gonna get bugs, leaves, and splatters.
