Past Due - 10/13/2006 3:42:15 PM    RTexasF Forum Monitor Posts: 2357 Joined: 11/16/2004 From: Brownsville, TX Status: offline I had let my ride get rough looking so it was major whammy time. After wash & dry the Cyclo was used to apply Wolfgang Polish to remove swirls. After that was removed with a microfiber towel Wet Paint was applied, also with the Cyclo. Removal with more MF towels. The last step was to hand apply/remove Finish Kare #425 spray. That helps to get any smidges of WP that were missed, gives a little more pop to the flake, and a dust repellent surface which is important here in South TX. Interior, wheels, wheel wells, engine, inside of trunk, hood, door jambs, all was done. Time was 6+ hours. The next day I took the car in for a four wheel allignment and got a detailing job!! A fellow customer in the waiting room commented on the car, I told him it was mine and that I detail cars......KA-CHING! Click for larger pic. The pictures will upsize a little, I had to severely reduce them to fit. Thumbnail Image major flake pop Thumbnail Image five foot legs!

The fella has an Accord Hybrid that's graphite gray. It should really turn out well. < Message edited by RTexasF -- 10/13/2006 4:54:46 PM > _____________________________ ''''04 2.4l 5M EX Sedan Neuspeed short shift kit V-6 6 speed front strut/firewall brace 17mm rear anti sway bar AEM Shorty DC Sports SS Header Kicker Speakers JL Audio Clean Sweep JL Audio Amp 200W Bazooka sub V-6 OEM 7 spoke alloys (in reply to sir_nasty) Post #: 3
