    2006 Nissan Frontier Nismo

    Hey everyone. This is a detail that I did for my Uncle. It is a 2006 Nissan Frontier Nismo. It's fairly new but was quite dirty. The wheels and tires were pretty nasty. They aren't perfect but he just wanted me to do a quick once over on it. Washing the whole truck, wheels, tires and drying took an hour, polishing and applying the sealant was a little over an hour and the interior was a little less than an hour... not a bad detail for 3 hours .

    Process:

    Wash / dry
    Quick polish w/ SSR2.5, polishing pad, PC, speed 6
    Topped with Wolfgang DGPS
    Tires- Hot shine
    Interior dressing- Meg's #40
    Windows got IG

    And yes, this is a reflection from the hood :rockon:

    Thanks Meghan. I thought about using a different sealant or wax but IMO WGDGPS is hard to beat on dark colors...

    Very nice detail there budman3. Black colour maybe a difficult colour to maintain but it sure looks great when it's detailed right.

    Thank you for sharing, great turn around.

    Big difference! I agree, the hood shots are cool.

    Black is fun to take pictures of after a detail. Even though they don't show the swirl removal, they are still cool . The reflections given off by the WGDGPS are great. Thanks for the comments .
