Waxon Detailing Forum

Hi Guys

So today i decided to detail the SO's fiesta
This must have been the most boring detail known to man

For those who don't believe in avoiding the car wash and the 2 bucket method
let me show you what a 2 year old car looks like that's never seen a carwash


Here are some befores







The car was washed foamed and clayed followed by another wash





Now for the truth - ( 2year old car and check the paint!!!! )








50/50



Some semi reflection shots - White isnt the greatest for reflections







Final shots










Took me 9hrs to polish and I must say its alot brighter now and a crisper finish

Nice work bud...Hope the SO rewarded you apropriately for all the efforts

Looks good. Lol so how many hours?

Looking good - a well looked after car made even better!

@Carn - she bought be dinner

@ Lexi - I think 9 hrs

*Lambrose - thanks bud

I see you were having some Ford withdrawal symptoms and went looking for a blue oval to detail.

Having owned a white car for a number of years, I know how unrewarding it is to detail, but there is definitely a crispness evident after a good detail.

Not sure how your SO reacted, but my wife's standard response to a detail like this would have been "So what have you been doing for the last 9 hours?"

One of the things I used to do when I drove a white car was to look out for similar models in the parking lot when I went shopping and then making a point of parking next to it. Side by side comparison is the best way to emphasize the difference between a detailed and non-detailed white car.
