I am still....detailing the car. So far I've done:
Wash
Clay
Wash
Swirl&haze corrector + deep swirl& hand polish

I'm gonna call it a day and just do the glaze/wax tomorrow. My back is freaking killing me.

It sounds like you had an awesome day Jon.. I washed the Z, and used my Dr. Colorchip on the rear bumper for a few spots, AND I mounted my MAZOC decals on both cars, I did something different than the norm, yall will have to see. I like it.

eastwest2300 · 04-06-2013, 05:17 PM

Ohh I also installed the bluetooth connection in the s2000..now that sh1t is tight!

Didn't even get finished. The double layer of swirl/haze + hand polish takes forever to dry and I guess it's too cold in the garage. No idea why they have you do it that way but it works. The hood is as smooth as a baby's butt after clay + paint correction. Really looks fantastic.

dmhenderson · 04-06-2013, 05:50 PM

Tomorrow: Finish haze removal. Glaze, wax, sonax+wax on wheels and some tire dressing and I should be good to go.

Most things you do are outside the norm.

It looks really good though, and I'd bet some people will follow along. Watch!

It was sad to see that huge steel plant rusting away there.

Probably less than 5 minutes from us

dm what are you using for swirl/haze correction?

I need to get a porter cable or some kind of machine, it always seems like a hand job (no pun intended) doesn't quite get the job done. Would make sense a machine can cut the paint much better, but I'm always afraid of burning the paint or messing it up even more lol

eastwest2300 · 04-06-2013, 07:35 PM

If you're using a machine, like a buffing machine, you want to constantly keep the machine moving, meaning you dont want to buff the same spot for a long duration of time...when you do buff an area for a long time, thats how you fvck up your sh1t.

At that price I'd rather get a Lambo/Ferrari
