    Honda S2000

    I did the one about two years ago

    And the onwer called me back for some more TLC. He has kept it in good shape. The last time he washed it, the mitt held onto something. And damage happened, to the rear left part of the car. On the trunk, and left fender. Had put a few really nice scratches in it. So he called me to the rescue.

    This was done in full sun, on top of a parking deck with no shade
    Oh I forgot it is a Black Honda S2000

    The Wash
    Optimum ONR with mf, for the whole car. One panel at a time.

    Wheels/tires
    Optimum ONR with mf. Used no touch on tires

    The Gameplan
    It didn't need to be clayed, it didn't feel rough. So I pulled out my PC and the org. edge2k pad. Ran it between speeds 4-6 with the Menzerna Super Intense Polish. And the Menzerna Finishing Glaze. Two dots of each on the pad at the same time. The glaze is just a helper in the SIP not dusting so much, and a little longer run time. After the lower parking deck clear'd out a little I drove it down there to put on the last step. DP Premium Surface Shield Paint Sealent

    Interior
    Man it has a small interior. Used a water/woolite wipe down on all surfaces. Dp Interior Surface Protectant on plastic/vinyl. And Pinnacle's Leather Conditioner on the leather.

    I did a iso wipe down, to show no hidding from the glaze.

    Wow. You have outstanding results there. Ever since Detail Fest when I had that Solstice rental I really want to get a little sports car just for the fun of it. My Menzerna should be here in a few hours. Can't wait to try it!

    Hey, did you just flip us the bird??

    Amazing wok! That is amazing that you had success with Menzerna in the sun, on a black car. You must've used more polish than normal right to keep it from drying out?

    Nope same amount of polish, the MFG helps it from drying to fast

    Great job! Birds flying around make me nervous when I'm detailing.

    Did you drop the top while you were cleaning the inside? I always have to drop the top or else I feel clausterphobic
