Hello All,

Usually I post problems on this board, so in order to do something a little different, I wanted to show you guys what my car looks like after 8 hours of polishing/detailing. Its a 98 S90 SE with 345,000km.

I purchased the car 4 years ago and it had 165,000km.

Thanks for looking!

      Hello,

      This car is outside all year round and balieve me Southern Ontario gets its share of salt/snow..

      1. Give it a really good wash
      2. Go over the entire car with clay bar and spray with dishsoap/water for lube
      3. Polish with orange pad and Monzerna (didn't spell it right) medium cutting polishing compound
      4.Polish with white pad and Monzerna fine cutting polishing compound
      5. Apply Worlds Best Wax

      In some areas where there are light scratches/heavy swirls you have to go over them a few times with the orange pad but you can get them all out if you take your time (swirls that is)

      In total it's easily 8 hours of work. At least now the paint is protected a little better for the winter...
