My friend was on tour to Reunion Island, and it was the opportunity to work with his ride.The passenger’s side remained to be polished. But ultimately the whole car got detailed.So here we are:The unpolished passenger’s side <img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/001.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The True Color <img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/008.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Close-up pics<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/002.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/003.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/004.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/004a.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/006.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />It hurts<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/005.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />It’s not easy to be a Camy!Road Tar<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/007.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The headlights<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/009headlight.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The other side was worse<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/010headlight.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Water spots on glass<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/012.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/012a.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />My tools:Washing & claying: Local car shampoo and APC mix, Uber clay + ONRPaintwork: Makita rotaryMenz Power Gloss 34A, 203sMeguiars M80LC pads: Orange, White, BlackMenz PowerLock SealantGlass:Menz PG and LC orange padStoner Invisible glassPlastics:CG New look trim gel Some cotton swabs and a dressing applicatorHeadlights:Menz PG and LC orange padMenz PowerLock SealantWashed and Clayed:<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/011.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Polishing:I started off with Menz PG on LC orange pad, followed by Menz 203s on LC white pad. Actually, I stopped this combination shortly.I simply jumped to 203s on LC white pad then got a little more aggressive as needed. The change paid. For the deeper RIDS, I resorted to wet sanding. But it proved very dangerous. The paint came out as powder paint, like the one used by kids in schools. So I stopped. I did want to correct all defects (RIDS) as I would unnecessarily remove paint. Remember there’s no clear coat on this paint.Even my wife (though she’s against me detailing cars) remarked: “Are you not removing his paint?”<img src="https://zerotohundred.com/forums/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/idea.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":idea:" title="Idea    :idea:" data-shortname=":idea:" />I spot buffed the RIDS using PG on LC orange, significantly reducing my section. I just rounded the majority of the RIDS. They are hardly noticeable. The parts I detailed months ago got a touch of Megs M80 and LC white pad followed by same polish and LC black.Let the pictures do the talking:<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/013.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/014.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/015.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/016.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/017.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/019.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/020.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/020a.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Blood Bath<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/021.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> This is my white padI don’t have IPA here. So, I used a wet towel to wipe over the polished areas followed by a complete wash. Then I proceeded to the final steps:Plastics were treated with CG new look trim gel.<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/022.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />This was one the most time consuming part. I didn’t want to leave any spot untouched. I was wondering how it could be done, how others do it. And thanks God, I got an idea: “Use cotton swabs”. It was time consuming but at last I was happy with the outcome.Menz sealant was applied to the paint with a CCS red applicator. Too big IMO for sealant application. Headlights got their share too.Headlights Before<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/009headlight.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />After<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/025.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Before<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/010headlight.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />After<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/025a.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Some reflection picsA new style Toyota Corolla, Needs refining of course.<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/029.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Now look at this pic very well.Toyota versus Honda<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/030.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Cartoonized Woody Woodpecker vs Dapper Denver Dooley<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/030a.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />It’s the effect of watching cartoons with my kids <img src="https://zerotohundred.com/forums/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/biggrin.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":biggrin:" title="Biggrin    :biggrin:" data-shortname=":biggrin:" />The photographer photographed<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/026.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/027.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/024.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The work was completed early morning on the 26th following Xmas last year, my first major detail after i met KC, Seech, Daniel, Chris (Car Nanny) . All I got was beads. So I named these Santa beads.<img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/034.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/035.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/036.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/037.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad141/zckid/detailing/sameer%20camy%20full/038.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />And I dedicate the Santa beads to all those who share their skills and abilities in the nicest way, and from whom I learn so much (everybody’s included for sure) and above all, my heartfelt thanks to God Almighty for making this possible.Your thoughts and advice are most welcome.Wish you all a very happy detailing Zaid</blockquote>
