My Honda S2000 Paint Correction
 
Finally detailed my car over the weekend.

Products used:
Chemical Guys Mr.Pink shampoo
Chemical Guys Black Heavy clay bar
Meguiar's Ultimate Compound / B&S Yellow Euro Foam pad on PC 7424xp
Meguiar's Ultimate Polish / B&S Blue Foam pad on PC 7424xp
Collinite 845 / CG Black Finishing pad on PC 7424xp
303 Aerospace protectant

Paint was swirled and scratched pretty badly, I wasn't able to achieve 100% correction unless I went with something more aggressive but either way, it looks a lot better than before.

Total time spent was around 20 hours spanned over 3 days.

Picked up quite a bit of contaminants, but obviously the black coloured clay doesn't show this well.
