The big question what products and give us some ideas about the whole procedure from the wash through to the LSP. A list of products, times and chemicals would be of interest too!
lsp is top secret i'm afraid
polish and process used though as follows:
Jet car down with pressure washer,
apply diluted megs super degreaser (cut 10-1) on wheels and exhaust, leave to soak,
while soaking foam top part of car with super snow foam and megs hyper wash combo,
foam bottom half of car with poorboys bug squash,
while foam running off clean wheels with wheel brush,
once wheels clean and foam run off rinse car with medium pressure on pressure washer,
refoam using lighter foam mixture of hyper wash,
while soaking again clean wheel arches,
wash with 2 bucket method and lambswool wash mit- rinsing after each pass and doing the top section of the car before the bottom section,
rinse off with full pressure,
apply autosmart tardis to any tar spots and leave for 2 - 3 mins,
wipe with soft mf cloth,
reapply if needed,
foam again,
rinse fully,
claybar using megs aggressive clay and mothers showtime detailer,
rinse,
foam and 2 bucket wash again,
rinse,
dry,
polish with porter cable (pads & polish used in these cases were megs cutting pad and menz IP. worked until residue all but gone)
apply special step to whole car,
remove residue,
apply special chosen wax to half car,
remove residue,
apply wax to other half of car,

seal wheels with poorboys wheel sealant,

Awesome finish and congrats on keeping the LSP secret. Seen the write up on Scoobynet....LOL
Good to see you using Mother's too. Thought I was the only one.

Cheers for the comments. Have some pics somewhere of a p'headers red nsx with the same combo. cracking results on red too. I don't mind people knowing the combo. Just want them to work for it lol.Good to see you using Mother's too. Thought I was the only one.

who do you post as on snet?
Mother's stuff is cracking. I tried some of the Reflections Advanced Top Coat and was hooked. Ended up being a supplier of the range lol.
Not a registered user on SNet but a client is and we just finished his WRX Saturday. He mentioned your post.
Have used Mother's for a long time and even using other stuff seem to come back to it over and over. We also stock and supply Mother's. Do you deal with Richard at Crystal Clean?

I love the smell of the showtime detailer. reminds me of the fireball bubble gum from when i was a kid lol. for the price of the mother's stuff i think the quality is superb.
Yeah, need to give him a call actually as running low on some things.

bet the white wheels were fun to sort out.
They weren't in bad condition to be fair but now they have wheels sealant on them they should be much better.....Used 3M Perfect-it II for the first time on this one and the results were excellent....Usually go with Menzerna but we were having issues with it being hard to remove for some reason. Totally one off as Menz is what we tend to use...weird....so we switched to the 3M stuff and found it worked quicker and left easily as equal if not better finish. All topped with Dodo.
