Newb with pics!!
Hello all - i am a Noob to the Lexus scene picked up a 2006 IS250 to serve as my daily driver and spent 5 hours this morning detailing it up.

Attached are some pictures to show the progress as the car needed some love!

I used the 4 products shown above and just applied pressure while doing the first 2 polishing steps - the purple product is a pretty aggressive polish and the second comes in after and cleans up the plastic a little bit more really shining them up - after wiping off the product they were good as new - put the glaze and carnuba on as well although i dont think it is really needed.

So the tool you used was something like this: http://www.tools-plus.com/porter-cab...=P-C7424XP-KIT
You put on the SSR 2.5 first, buffed it with the tool, then put on the Mazerna Superfinish and buffed that? Then after doing that, you put on the Mazerna Finishing Touch Glaze as well as something called Carnuba?
