'06 CRV Grocery getter exterior
This is my wife's CRV. It is not garaged, daily driven, and this is the first time it has seen a buffer. She is the original owner I did clay it and polish it when she took delivery back in 06. It gets a quick coat of zaino every 6 months or so. This is the first time it has even been washed since the salt has been off the roads here.
I am no photographer, and didn't spend too much time on pics. The main area of concern were all 4 doors. The had some pretty bad scratches from her mother's dog jumping on them, and other scratches from the wife getting in and out with all her crap.
Washed with Car-Brite Cherry Bomb. And clayed with Z-18/Z-7 lube.
I hit the Dog claw marks with M105 with LC Orange pads on the Flex. After that The whole vehicle was buffed with Z-PC LC Black pads. After a quick once over with Z-6 I applied 1 coat of Z-5. I was satisfied with the shine, and saw no need to top with Z-2. I decided I can apply either another coat of Z-5, or a coat of Z-2 after the first wash. I went over the car again with the Z-6 spray. The Bumpers, lower trim, and tires were all treated with Z-16. I only cleaned the wheels. They will get attention after the next wash. Probably Z-AIO, or a claying and Z-5. Overall I was pretty happy with the results for the wife's dd.
