Clean the wheels then use Meguiars Hot Wheels. Back to black wheel arches. Do tyres with Endurance Tyre Shine.

Wet car with hose, two buckets, lambswool mitt, Meguiars shampoo, rinse mitt between each panel, hose off after doing top, hose again after doing bottom, dry off with a couple of waffle weave microfibre towels,

or leave wet and Clay Bar using Quick Detailer spray and Meguiars Clay Bar, then quick wash and rinse again, dry with towels.

Meguiars ScratchX used with a foam pad if there are any swirls, then two layers of Meguiars NXT, buffing each layer with a couple of microfibre towels.

Polish glass inside and out, then vac interior and silicone spray the dash.
