I decided to detail the wife's Edge today..

After I washed and clayed it, hit it with waterless wash.. it actually didn't look that bad so I skipped the SSR and went straight to SHR.. then to FMP, and then MSW. I used Revive on the mirrors and a few other areas I couldn't hit with the PC full size pads..

It definitely looks a lot different than the day we got it.. the color is much more vibrant..

after the wash and IIRC after claying..

after SHR and FMP..

finally done!

Damn!! That paint looks really really really good.
BTW, because of your thread on your G8 I spent my 4am-5am on Adam's site watching the videos :lol:

Looks great Nick! That is a really nice color. I hate to say it but the Edge isn't a bad looking crossover (I hate crossovers). The Edge Sport is pretty sweet.
