Default 4th of July detailing

Ok, 4th of July was my detail weekend. I was seriously scratched up and swirled up before this weekend!
I started with Zaino concentrated wash. Then on to a zaino clay bar, 2 passes of Menzerna SIP with a PC7424 and Uber green pads, then 2 coats of Z5, and then I finished it all up with a coat of Lusso Oro. Final touches were some neverdull on the exhaust and some Megs PlasticX on the headlights (probably amazed me the most)
The interior was all Zaino'd with leather soft cleaner, then leather in a bottle. The plastic interior parts were all cleaned with Zaino tire gloss.
Anyway, on to the pictures







All in all, I'm VERY satisfied!
Think it's time to go pro? The last pic is the best reflection I've seen yet!

Haha, perhaps I'll lead a class one day at a meet! I've already got a couple people at work interested in my services now that they've seen what I can do. Since I'm still a novice, I'm not charging TOO much, but it's far from cheap. There's a lot of labor and consumable expenses involved in doing that level of restoration.
