Oakes - Detailed: 2004 Honda S2000 - Pic Heavy

A full paint corrective detail, done by myself, of this Pearl Yellow S2000. Out of the 400+ pics I tried to find a good bit that really showed the full effect of the detail. However the weather and time weren't typically on my side, worked on this car at night mostly after my day time details as I had it available for almost 2 weeks time! Try and keep this as descriptive and organized as possible!

*Note: the Front bumper and Driver's side fender are a different shade of yellow due to a poor repaint by a body shop. Owner is having this corrected and the car brought back to me*

Process:
Full wash - Clay Bar
Menzerna Intensive Polish - PC, orange pad - 4 hours
Menzerna Final Polish II- PC, green pad pad - 2 hours
Menzerna Finishing Touch Glaze - PC, white pad
Optimum Opti-Seal - hand applied - cured overnight
Collinite's No. 845 Insulator wax - hand applied - cured for 3 hours.
Rewashed
Spray waxed

BEFORE PICTURES: Note swirling!








Before and after of wheels - painted factory wheels with vinyl pin stripe




50/50 Shots:







Fender Before/After - a mix of swirls and paint overspray




Paint Shots:







Interior Shots - PoorBoy's Natural Look, Mink Oil and a few other products went to work here










Full car shots
