Spent most of yesterday Detailing our new ride.
2009 Edge.
I really like this car, perfect size, great to drive and has all the options to boot.
We picked it up a few months back, wanted to get it sealed up before the snow flys, which should be next week.
Didn't get before pics, srry guys.
Hood was way scratched, had some sort of over-spray or some shit on all top services, few chips but all in all it came out great..
This paint color is called "Cinnamon" it's a really pretty color, lots of shade variance and metallic.
Steps:
-Washed
-Claybar'd
-Medium cut polish, rotary with CG V36, orange hex pad
-Fine polish, Orbital with CG V38, orange hex pad
-Poorboys black hole glaze, by hand (hood, second coat of glaze, CG ez cream cause it had lot's of scratches. (polished the hood 4x)
-1 coat Jetseal by hand
-1 coat 50-50 wax (saving wet obsession for my car
wiping off the jetseal, thought "hey I should'a taken some pics"
My wife Heather did help with the whole job which i thought was cool.
She went behind me with the orbital and did a good job. Cut a 12 hr job down to about 8 hrs.
Here's some finished shots:
Sweet feature of this car, monster glass roof/sunroof that opens way up
