I dropped Kay off with
PeeJ Auto Detailing last weekend to get a similar treatment as
Bumblestook minus the engine bay since it was already fairly clean and well, it's hidden from view anyway. My main objective was to get her corrected, polished and ceramic coated to make it easier to keep clean. Dark cars are the worst when it comes to this even when they're not black (remember, Kay is Atlas Gray).

As usual, PeeJ did a spectacular job starting off with a nice wash a few hours after dropping her off to let the car cool and have some shade from the sun. It's a foam wash with Adams Car Wash followed by 2 bucket wash method. 1st stage decontamination using Optimum Ferrex then rinsed off. 2nd stage decontamination using claybar and Adams detail spray, then rinsed.

He then spent a few days correcting and polishing. There were quite a few swirls on the car and some microscratches that needed to be taken care of. 1st stage paint correction was compounding using Jescar correcting compound. 2nd stage paint correction was polishing using Sonax perfect finish. She was then wiped down with Optimum paint prep to remove any leftover oils from the polishes.

Once that was done, 2 layers of Optimum Gloss Coat ceramic coating and the results are once again astounding.

Obviously, he also cleaned up the interior which wasn't in bad shape to begin with anyway but noting it here for completeness. She was deep cleaned with leather master's strong cleaner and protected with Optimum leather protectant.
