I spent the last few days doing a full detail on my car.

Wash, claybar, compound, polish, sealant on the exterior plus interior cleaning.

Very very tired and sweated bucket loads.

I think I'm getting too old for this

After wondering a long time if I should try to do wet sanding or not I finally decided to give it a go.

I had some paint chip marks on my front bonnet and have put some touch up paint on it a few months ago.
Yesterday I wet sanded the spots very gently and the area after wet sanding looked very dull.
But I was confident that Meguiars compound M101 should be able to bring back the shine.
I applied M101 to an orange foam pad and worked the area.
After buffing off the compound the sanding marks were all gone and the area is shiny again

Unfortunately I still don't have enough skill to properly do paint touch up.
The spot where I did the touch up is less visible now but I can still see a minor hole there

*removing my name from the list as I can't go this weekend.

When you do claying you'll also remove the wax.

So you'll need to wax again after claying.

I only do claying when the surface feels abit rough after wash and dry.
