Detailed the outside of the G35X today for my dad.....interior and engine comes tomorrow
Started off with Meguiars Deep Crystal carwash, followed by bug and tar remover where needed, my dad had bought a bottle of Turtle Wax liquid wax stuff, so i gave that a try with my new 6 inch random orbital buffer.....one cover to put it on, then just switched to another one to take it off. Came out REALLY nice, esp since its turtlewax :-D
Then did the wheels and tires with some more turtle wax stuff (so far i actually like the turtle wax tire spray and wheel cleaner better than anything else i've tried!), used steel wool to clean up the exhaust tips, and Stoners invisible glass on the windows. I would have used the meguiars 3 step stuff i've got, but my dad didnt want me to spend the whole afternoon working on it, and he wanted to try the turtle wax. I think it came out awsome for what was done. Gonna get some clay and try that, but hey...for my second real try with detailing, i think its pretty good.

i really liked how the steel wool cleaned up the tips....even though i just quickly went over them, it looks soooooo much better than before. i'll have to get some sort of polish for them next time....

by the way, i wasnt able to clean out the rust stuff inside the tips, cause it was the exhaust pipe not the tip itself...

I like those cars, good ammount of power for a 4 door sedan....make sure you get those wheelwells tomorrow too

. Car looks bueno, I like the head on shot. What did you use on the lower trim?

For the lower trim i actually didnt use anything....i had no clue what to use.
The wheel wells i sprayed with black magic tire cleaner.....didnt do much....hmm....
And yeah...for a 4 door sedan, its got power ;-)
