1st geek detail

[soonermike]

So this is my new Accord V6 in "cool blue". No before pics were necessary. I believe the sole reason for gas going up is because I bought a V6 instead of the 4 bangers I've always had in the past. But anyway... the products used were the souveran sizzling shine kit with Klasse SG and the pinnacle wheel and tire kit. I love it all. The car in the reflection is my next project (very neglected 92 Acura Legend that I saved from the pound...) will post that ASAP

also since I'm new please don't grill me for a) not washing the wheel wells and b) being an amateur photographer... LOL

I love this site and my new addiction...

Paint looks good, but spray the wheel wells w/ some aerosol tire dressings and it will be very nice first detail.

Nice job! I would also do the wheel wells. Even if you just always wash them to keep them clean it makes a big difference on the looks of the car. AG can become an addiction.

Nice work. Can`t wait to see pics of the legend, its a fine car! I like big cars :p

Well done, for the first time detailing looks good. I like the reflection you achived, paint has a nice depth to it.

hahaha good thing you posted

hahaha becuase it's hard to look at a car and not notice it hahahaha but no worries. It's like swirls, everywhere I turn I see swirls hahahaha. I remember my frist time....I missed a few things that I caught on pictures and went back and tried to fix it.

The car looks good, thanks for sharing oh and the pictures look good to me...mind you I'm not a Pro at taking pictures iether...but with practice and a little bit of ready (which I've started to do) thing will come.

WELCOME TO THE ADDICTION!!!! :)

What's with the dirty wheels wells? And you're such an amateur photographer!!!

:)

[Mike T]

Your not an AG'er if you don't do the wheel wells! lol....

Great Job. Your off to a great start.

[AUdakota]

dont worry about the wheel wells, I used to think (before I came here) that i had a secret of spraying tire dressing in them to make em clean looking....

[soonermike]

Thanks for all the comments guys! Still working on that ol' beast of an Acura... day 3... I have to work around a toddlers nappy nap time... it looks funny sitting in my driveway overnight with all this blue tape all over it... LOL

PS the wheel wells WILL be done on it... :p

[ehuth1]

Very Nice !! Degrease those wells and get a long reach brush and your set !! I didn't know much about picture taking until I just seen alot on here and basically look-n-learn :)

Here's how to get around cleaning the wheel wells...move the camera :righton:

I was pretty impressed with P21S Total Auto Wash. Sprayed the wells and hosed it down good. Then sprayed some NXT Instant Shine. A pretty good 'no touch' solution.

Great pics and great job on the car, nonetheless.
