How is this for a first post? I know this forum will appreciate the condition of this gem. 
A couple of weeks ago I finished detailing this 1988 Honda Civic Wagon. The owner is a member on here.
Unfortunately these are Iphone photos so they cannot capture what they eye truly can in person. Prior to the paint restoration it was dull and the paint was more yellow than a nice pure white. The car turned out amazing! Please enjoy and please feel free to leave comments!

So Awesome! Would love some more specific steps as well. If one was to aquire the right products and apply them in order, as directed, in attempt to obtain similar results themselves.
Nice work, regardless!
