What's the exact sequence of steps you went through to get your car to look like this?
last question....any reason why you chose not to clay?

thanks guys!
lol. i was just too tired to move my car to a better spot. i took that picture in front of my driveway.
ohhh screw the thunderstorms... i'll drive my car when i want to... but not after i just detailed it. haha. my car will be inside my garage if it rains tomorrow.
emon, i used the porter cable to polish the car, apply the sealant and wax. if you want to remove swirl marks, the best way to do it is with a dual-action polisher like the porter cable 7424. removing swirl marks by hand is possible but it's gonna take a LOT of time. you can apply the sealant and wax by hand, i just chose to do it with the polisher because it's easier.
the heat gun, i used that to get rid of the bug stains on the clear bra.
i chose not to clay because i was gonna polish the car anyway. the polishing compound i used is slightly abrasive to remove swirl marks and other crap from the paint.
steps?
1) vacuum interior
2) leather conditioner on the seats, clean the panels
3) wash
4) polish
5) wax
6) tire dressing
