Stock 09 IS250 "Photoshoot" after a good Detailing
*These are from earlier in the Summer when I just got this car, but I just never got around to posting all of them.
This is my 2009 IS250 - I don't have any before pictures of the condition of the paint, but it was in fairly good shape with just the typical swirls and scratches from being a daily driver that is washed once a week. Needless to say, the paint is near flawless now.
Soooo shiny!!
Since these pics I have painted calipers black w/ white Lexus decal, added OEM rear lip and roof spoiler, and an m2 exhaust.
Process:
-Washed with CG Citrus Wash and Gloss diluted to strip off old wax
-Dried with DI Waffle Weave Microfiber Towels
-Clayed with DI Fine Clay with ONR as Lube
-Compounded with M105 (where needed) w/ LC White Pad via PC7424XP
-Polished with M205 w/ LC Black Pad via PC7424XP
-Sealed with CG Blacklight w/ LC Blue Pad via PC7424XP
-Topped with CG Hybrid V7
-Wheels Cleaned with P21S
-Tires Dressed with Meg's Endurance Gel
-Interior Trim Dressed with 303
-Leather Conditioned with Lexol
-Glass Stoner's IG
This one is more recent, but the car is still looking good!
Check out some of my other photos on Flickr!
Thanks for looking!

It looks even better now.... check out my most recent thread with the 22ple VX1 Pro Coating - scratch resistant, semi permanent protection. Awesome stuff.
