Quick Afternoon Detail Job [56K Death]

Well my (soon to be) father-in-law has been wating me to detail his 2001 Interpid. I can honestly say this car had some of the worst paint I have ever seen on daily driver. I wanted to take pictures of the entire detail but my lovely camera sucks the life out of batteries in nowtime and I accidently left it on after taking the first few. However I did get new batteries to take some "final" pictures.

My process was:

- Wash
- Adam's Clay Bar & Detail Spray
- Poorboy's SSR1 w/ Buff & Shine Black Polshing Pad
- Poorboy's SSR25 w/ Buff & Shine Yellow Cut Pad
- Back to SSR1 with Black Pad
- Meguiars NXT
- Adam's VRT on all plastic trim

I also cleaned the interior using Adam's Carpet Cleaner & Adam's VRT.

Now for some pictures

Before


AFTER

Re: Quick Afternoon Detail Job [56K Death]

are you using the batteries that came with your digital camera? if not you should buy some :O

i remember my brother threw em away cuz he didnt know they were rechargable and i would use normal alkaline batteries and after 3 pictures they would die, i would go thru a pack of batteries like no other. but then someone told me about cameras requiring diff batteries, and bought a panasonic pack with recharger.... jeeeeeez i can actually take photos and look at them without being pressured on time!!!
