Thumbs up First time Pix for you guys!

I hope this is the right forum for sharing pics. I'm really green to these forums and there seems to be a few forums that this topic would fit into. If I'm mistaken, feel free to close/move this thread - I wasn't sure!

I am late in posting these, but the shine I created still looks fantastic! I did this about 3 weeks ago. I used ClayMagic clay, Scratch X (only makes a difference when you're up very close, as you know), Megs 7 glaze and Megs 26 paste wax. Funny, but it seems I did more steps than that! Megs tire gloss for the tires and NevrDull on the rims, which are my favorite products for these areas

I use Megs QD to bring all the luster back, and here is the end results.










Cemeteries just have great backgrounds for pics. I did a little playing around w/a couple pics (took out all the graves in one and made a fake cemetery sign, hehe).

You can see some of my chrome/polished alum. through the hood vent in one of the pics.

I have no current engine pics (ALWAYS doing cleanup and always re-routing different wires/hoses/tubes into the fenderwells - my pics are always outdated!) but here's an older one. Most of the hose/tube mess has been completely hidden/rerouted/etc.




Not bad?

awsome car, I love that #7/#26 combo. You might want to think about putting a layer of S100 on top of that to give it just slightly more gloss.

At the bottom left of your post, you will notice the following which reduces linked pics to just links:
