I finally had time this weekend to overhaul the outside of the car today...plus the weather was much cooler compared to our typical weather!
Thursday night I did a complete wash and mechanical decontamination using the Nanoskin Fine Mitt the paint felt like sandpaper but it was super easy to plow through without a lot of marring, smooth as a baby’s.::you know! ...makes me think the soap I’ve been using doesn’t have a ton of cleaning power, hmmm.
After the morning workout, I foamed and rinsed the car since it was just a little dusty, and she was ready to be spruced up.
I used my HF Hand/Body/Teeth Massager with BF One Step with seven LC White Pads and one LC Orange Pad for the drivers side door to try to reduce a couple of scratches. As expected she turned out looking good and only took about two hours to polish.
To finish her off and to make her pop, I reached for my new DoDo Juice Black Widow Wax. I went around the car using the foam finger applicator (not a fan), application took a little longer than I expected but I finally covered everything.
While I was waiting for it haze, I decided to RW the wife’s X3, we made a road trip to Oxford Mississippi last weekend to see our daughter at Ole Miss and the X3 was a little dirty. I must say 303 Graphene that is on her car performed very nicely given that we hit rain on the way, while we were there, and on the way home, the self cleaning was off the charts!

Back to the Acura, I grabbed a couple of MF towels and plowed through the removal, it wasn’t bad at all other than the couple of spots that I applied a little too much.
The slickness Black Widow left behind reminded me of Beadmaker but it popped like mad not to mention it really brought out the metallic flake throughout the car, not just a couple of spots...Black Widow was designed for darker metallic paint...let me say DoDo Juice did not disappoint!! Depending on how I feel tomorrow, I may apply a second coat!
To finish off the car, I hit the tires and wheels with Brake Buster and a few brushes, topped the wheels off with DoDo Juice Red Mist and the tires with DP Gloss Tire Gel, I was going to use BF Trim and Tire Sealant but it’s supposed to rain Tuesday and Wednesday, didn’t want to waste it!
Thank you for your time!
