Default Detailing

Alright, so when i got the 370z it had been "hand washed" for about 7 years. This seems to be done with the same sponge for all those years as the paint condition was terrible.

Now the magnetic black is an amazing colour that can really pop the metallic, but in order to do so the paint has to be immaculate.

I spent one day detailing the Z, doing a one stage polishing treatment. To achieve perfection i should do at least 2 or 3 stages, but I wanted to go for the "quick wins" first and finish the entire car in one day.

The front bumper was in very bad condition:


The side pillar also improved by 90%:


Reflections....





A close up of the wheels. I had them powdercoated in the original NISMO colour:
