Scion FRS polish + coating

[Justin M.]

Been a while since I have posted anything here, thought I would share this recent video I put together.

This one I put together for my youtube car channel (not really aimed at detail enthusiasts), but thought some others here might find it fun.

This is one of my own cars, wash and clay process not included in the video. Now, to the video :)

Thanks :) Just did another car this weekend (Lexus ct200h F-Sport) with basically the same polish and coating. Always looks nice!

Looks awesome! How is the 5 inch backing plate on the 21? Any more vibration vs the standard 6 inch plate?

Honestly I never used used the standard backing plate. Went straight to the 5". Works great, no vibration that I have noticed, still well balanced.

Great video.

But, bro... Most of all, I watched your wheel bearing replacement video on the Nissan. And, I wanted to give you props for doing it with a white shirt on and not getting it filthy.
