I was back up at 6 the next morning to get what I could done before my twins woke up. They were up at 7:30...but LOVED how soft the microfibers were, so I put em to work!



They got in my way so I threw drying towels at them and set em loose on the other car. Beat it rodents, you're bugging me.....



Once the sun came up I could tell the rubbing I did the night before was going to pay off once I used the Cyclo again. All be darned, it's starting to shine....





I called it off at 8am, spent the day with my kids, and was back at it after PJ's and a good round of Cinderella books, Simon Says and goodnight kisses....

8pm. Back to it with the Cyclo and Extreme Cut with orange pads. I redid the entire car this way.




And now a word from our sponsor:

Todays detail has been brough to you by Leinenkugel's Sunset Wheat. Silver medal winner of the 2006 Great American Beer Festival and bronze winner of the 2006 World Beer Cup. Served chilled with a slice of orange to compliment the coriander and enhance the citrus flavor of the beer. Try one today.




And now back to our regurally scheduled detail......


After cutting with Extreme Cut on orange pads I moved to Evolution cut on yellow pads. I noticed only a bit of difference for the effort so I decided to just go to Evolution Polish on the Green pad and spend a little more time with that. What he got after that was the best I was going to get it. By this point in the project my wife wasn't talking to me anymore.....and I had hours left. I just HAD to draw the line.

Here's what the car looked like at the end of Evolution polish before Gloss Activator and Gloss Finish ....



Remember, win the battle, not the war.....

Finally it was off to Gloss Activator by hand and then Gloss Finish with the white pad.



By this time it was 1 am again. I called it another night. Back to it tomorrow night after more Simon Says......

Sunday evening, 8pm, brought the car's first trip out of the garage since the clay barring. Not 100% by a long shot, but not bad....
