I agree. Folks this isa bottom of the barrel productfor the mass consumer that has no background involving automotive paint care. There are so many better products available that it's just not funny. If offers TEMPORARY looks for a very short term. With just a little investigation on your part you can do so much better. Want long lasting results that don't rob the bank? Look into Duragloss products, one of the best values on the market for results and durability........and there are many others.

 

1 coat of Wet Paint + 1 coat of Mojo Quick Detailer









My latest mod ..... gotta love black chrome!!!!

 

I use Adams Polishes. I started using that stuff when I had the Mustangs and I really like it. You can only buy direct or through dealer, but I love that stuff. I just did my car yesterday - Clay, 3M swirl/scratch remover and their buttery wax. Will post pics later with my new member post.

You should clay the car with care once a year depending on the conditions of where the car is. Much chemicals in the air, the more you will need to clay. Machine polishing FTW, but very carefully, you don't want to cut too much or you might end up with thiningclear coat - specially with our single stage paint.

Here are some of my Stangs and the detail of using the products I mentioned.

No questions, the Termi is my Fav, but the blue and Yellow looked so good after that wax came off. My wife's RX300 is a 99 and look at how the paint stil looks.

 

yeah those cars are shiny...great job on those...=P

btw welcome to HAF!!!

i see u also live in FL...me too..exept i live in palm coast...do u go to busch gardens ofthen??[8D]JK..

 

I've been there...... twice in three years! I have a two year old now that has me going to places like the zoo for now...

Thanks on the cars - I like the Accord so much right now.

Detailing is as important as maintenance on a car. It actually helps sell the car better since it shows people that you "care" for the car. Kinda like a nice looking lady, you assume she's clean all around... Anyone up for surprises?...... LOL

 

lol..yeah..=))haha..i feel you..=))

but yeah i love cars so much..(can you tell that im a gear head person=))LOL..) and taking care of cars makes me feel good...specially when you see it pays off...like u work on ur car to put more hp and u when u test drive it u feel the increase in hp..and for looks...taking good care of the exterior, spending hours detailing it...and then you get thumbs up from people..its all worth it..

 

wow folk..i love the shine on your tC...specially that TRD logo=)) LOL

 

Thanks!!! That was actually the quick Labor-Day weekend clean-up. I didn't even do the trim-shine or final inspection detailer. Mojo leaves a nice finish and I kinda just want to finish that can to get rid of it. I like it's results, but the sprayer only works right for the first 2 applications. I spray it on the rag now since it doesn't spread like it's supposed to.

The TRD is on my strut tower bar. I'm going to have to take a look at it when I get home. I never noticed the scratches on the left side of the TRD before ..... I think I might have left the packaging tape on there.

 

The Tc looks good.
