Wax: Meguiars #26

Those were my steps in that order. Overall the paint wasn't in bad shape, but it did need correcting in a few places (hood and trunklid mainly)

Just as a side note...the car is nearly 4 years old now and has over 50k miles. It is kept outside without a car cover and is daily driven in all conditions. Just goes to show what a little hard work and proper maintenance can produces. Pics below, but they dont really do the car justice.

What do you mean when you say correct the paint? What was wrong with it and how did you correct it?
Your car looks real good too, i love the yellow paint1

Suggestion- if you are not looking to spend 24 bucks on a 4 oz bottle of trim detail, buy Mothers Back to Black. I've used it for a while, and on quite a few cars that I've detailed. While I've never used Black Wow, I'm sure it is good, 24 bucks is a bit expensive. Just my .02

Car looks great. I take it by paint correction he meant buffing. I'm sure you'll keep it looking good.

Didn't like the Mothers Back to Black as it runs all over your car in the next rain

That depends on the application. If you just apply the back to black and not rub it in after, it will run. I've never had that problem, nor have I had a problem I've heard of on any car I've used it on. Plus, I live in Chicago, we are partial to wet weather

paint correction....I was referring to the use of a porter cable/ light polish to remove some minor swirls.
