    2010 Nissan GTR full deal clean up

    I have had the honors of touching the paint of my 1st supercar or whatever the GTR is classified as. The owner is a friend of mine and asked me to detail his car. The car is a daily driver unless the weather is bad and it showed that. It had not really ever been properly taken care of as far as washing, polishing, and waxing goes. He was wanting a spot correction, polish, seal & wax, engine bay cleaning, and interior cleaning.

    Lets start with the way it showed up to my house. It had not been washed in the previous few weeks and the back bumper showed it. The car is modded and makes a little over 500whp(it ran me down on my Ducati faily easy!) and dumps black crap all over the rear end. That stuff doesn't come off very easy! The pictures will show you some of the filth on it.

    The products used were as follows:
    Megiuar's products:
    Gold Class Wash
    M105
    M205
    M26 Synthetic Sealant
    Quik Detailer
    Ultimate Quik Wax
    Clay kit
    Endurance High Gloss tire shine
    Auto Finesse products
    Iron Out
    Spritz
    Mother's Products
    VLR
    Mag & Aluminum Polish
    Dodo Juice Waxes
    Diamond White
    Light Fantastic
    Other Products
    Collinite 845
    Scotchgard OXY clean carpet
    CRL Sprayway glass cleaner
    Eagle One PVO Aluminum Wheel cleaner
    LA's Totally Awesome APC
    Applicators and Pads
    LC CCS Orange and Black
    LC Flat White and Yellow
    Yellow foam applicators
    Microfiber applicators
    Machines
    PC7424XP
    Shop-Vac vacuum
    Bissell Spot Pet


    These 1st pictures are the way the car showed up to me being filthy and some of the spots needing some serious love.






























    Here is to show you how nasty it was.

    Nice 50/50 shot of the rear end being half clean/half dirty.

    Even after being washed the rear end was stained from the soot. M205 had a tough time cutting it. The entire rear was compounded with M105 to clean it up. After that I learned the rear bumper had been resprayed but a very poor body man. It has unmatching paint, dust in it, and a couple runs on the passenger side near the taillights. Such a shame for a car like this.

    Very nice results! I honestly thought the car had matte black exhausts as an option . So it was funny seeing it all shiny.

    Very nice results. I'd use coating to protect this SOFT paint

    I've mentioned that to the owner and he wasn't that interested in it this go around. He said he may be later when it needs cleaned up again. The windows have a coating from the previous owner.

    Those exhaust tips are the only stock portion of the exhaust and I don't think have ever been cleaned. I can't describe to you how nasty they were before I washed the car.

    Thank you! I had to do something to show how filthy this car was. Now I have to get him on a maintenance schedule for it!
