Ever since buying my KJ, I've been wanting to get around to doing a little paint correction on it. I've been too busy doing other things to it, and have been neglecting the paint. I didn't have much going on at my shop, so I took the rest of the day off to do a little cleaning on the KJ. When it comes to detailing I'm a newbie, so I'm sure it could've turn out better if I knew wtf I was doing lol.
Here's what I did:
1) Rough wash with Turtle Wax Car Wash
2) Normal wash with Turtle Wax to clean the most possible before clay bar treatment.
3) Clay bar treatment using Meg's Clay Bar kit
4) Another light washing with TW
5) 2nd clay bar treatment using the other bar in the kit
6) Ultimate Compound treatment
7) 2 coats of Gold Class paste wax with TW Liquid ICE around/on trim, roof rack, and door handles.
I spent just under 6 hours on the exterior and I'll be doing the interior tomorrow. About 30 minutes after I finished, it started storming. I'm happy with the way it turned out, but wouldn't mind using a DA the next time. Now on to the pics...
Final results
