Well I did it.

I first spent an hour and a half with a 040 ($16 at MB Tucson) paint pen filling it every little nick and scratch over the entire car. I can still tell that its touch up paint, but from 3 feet its not noticible at all.

Then I washed using the 2 bucket method. and dried with a real sheep skin chamois.

I used the Meguairs deep crystal clay bar/ lube. man did it look bad when i was done, but I wahed it off and the paint had a nice cleanlyness to it i hadnt seen before.

Then I washed using the 2 bucket method. and dried with a real sheep skin chamois.
AGAIN!

i took the car for a low speed drive around the block becuase if you dont water settles in all the cracks and joints then when you go to wax it there is water dripping everywhere.

When that was finally done i started with the deep crystal cleaner wax. I applied it waited 5 mins and then used my buffer to get the cleaner wax off and man did it look pretty good right off the bat! but i could still see a few small scratches. So i did it again and that made me some money! Only a few larger scratches remained and I was pretty excited.

So at 15 mins ber body panel X12 it was time consuming to say the least, and i was getting really tired of being on my knees for the bottom portion but to see my reflection in the lowest body panel was worth it. After that was all done I used a microfiber cloth to get off any remaining cleaner wax in places the buffer didn't reach.

Then i used the same method, but this time I used Meguiars NXT Tech Wax 2.0. wow! it was really like glass for the first time in my ownership. once again 3 hours worth of work, whiped the residual wax off with a microfiber towel.

This was the result.
