Digging up fossils.

I have been detailing for a while now on my personal vehicles, I love the Megs Ultimate wheel cleaner but dang it's expensive.

I bought the D143 but it says it safe on clear...

6-10 drops for me

I just stick mine in a big cup in the sink, turn on the hot water and let it run for a little while.

"Rehazing" is generally because you put it on too thick and didn't flip the towel you wipe it off with enough. It does this to me with some microfibers, but almost never does when I am wiping it off...

I sent the Email to Mike, some of the questions came from this vid

I did use the Purple power citrus, it did a good job but did discolor the radiator plastics a little.

Mothers VLR took car of the plastics, looks good thanks guys.

I have a C5 Z06 that I do track days with, it has an issue with filling catch cans with oil and then it makes a mess under the hood.

I used Purple Power Citrus cleaner on the back of the car where...

Priming the pad correctly out of the gate solved this for me. After every 2x2 I use 4 small dots of product and keep on truckin'.

If it is really hot out I will spray the pad with some water here...

5.5 pad and I think a 4 inch backer plate.

Here is the car with a coat Meg's NXT 2.0 wax.

It's not because it was for a "dealership" it was because he was getting paid warranty time instead of customer pay time most likely.

The manufacturers keep cutting warranty time.

When I need help on the car, he is Johnny on the spot. We trackday/HPDE these cars. If you look in the first set of pics the pewter car with chrome wheels and burgundy Grand Sport stripes is my car.

No problemo (In my best Terminator voice).

I cant wait to touch it up and get some wax on it.

He tinted the windows with 20% ceramic tint.....it looks really good.

The paint and clear were from Matrix.

I am done with it for now, when it outgasses I will touch it up and wax it.

Here is my FB Detail album, there are lots of pics of the car at the bottom of it.

Thanks

It was really apparent when I did my first 2x2 with the M105, I had to do the sides twice with M105. The light in the shop, the sun sets behind the shop, sun comes up right in the door. As I...

Does he have to wait to paint rally stripes on the car or put emblems on it?

And thanks, car looks killer....the pictures really don't do it justice. Car is stunning in the sun.

Not sure on the paint, I will ask him.

Took two of us a FULL day to wash/strip, tape and sand the entire car. If I had to do it over again I would have taken more time sanding....and will in the...

Thanks guys.

Anyway, here is the finished product, gave it a good wash after I was done and a so so dry off, no wax as it has to out gas for 30 days.
