My $30.00 Dollar Detail Job
Actually NOT mine, But Mine to fix 
I got the call from one of my closest friends, the phone call started with a "Boy are you going to be Mad" that alone was enough for me to get all worried, I went and picked the car up, It's a Jaguar, Black, one of the special edition 400hp bla bla bla, My good friend decided to have the car detailed by a so called "Pro Detailer" TOTAL COST $30.00, This is exactly what happens when someone without a clue uses a high speed buffing machine, and the guy is a "Pro Detailer"
The steps that I used were
Pre Wash
Car Shampoo/ Oxidation Block
I tried many combination of pads but settled for Orange Pad and Black Pad, at times a yellow pad using swirl remover
Pre Wax
Wax with Polycharger
Wash
One more coat of wax with Polycharger
Tire Gel
