This is another Supra that's for sell by www.speed4sale.com. Jeremy, the owner, wants me to do all of his cars after doing the black Supra posted earlier. Paint was in better condition but need alot of swirls removed. No big water spots this time! Got pretty much the same process as the H2. Just wanted to confirm XMT and Max Wax on a red car.

Absolutely gorgeous detail! Now that's how a Supra should look like!

Awesome work Justin. I especially like the SSR GT-3 wheels.

OMG. Put the silver badges on that car and I'll take it. Interior looks real nice, how many miles? My buddy is a Supra buyer/seller. He has 4 or 5 on hand right now... I'm trying real hard to resist the urge. I have a hard time justifying $35K+ for an 8 year old car.

EDIT: 95,000 miles. Wow, those seats look pretty good. The side bolsters usually look terrible on the Supras after that many miles. Maybe it's just the color hiding most of the schmeg.

Excellent work. The paint looks very wet.

Are you serious, Swirl remover to glaze and it came out looking like that with a light cut pad and a PC? How hard is the toyota paint and any before pictures? Looks AWESOME

I don't take lots of before pic. Just never have after a customer told me she would be so embarrassed. XMT SR finishes down nice. Didn't leave any marring at all. Very low dusting and smells awesome. Key lime. The glaze is grape. This is the best glaze I've used. I've used #7 and #3 alot and this past them.

Very nice looking Red Supra

Where can you order these products at? Also the Edge pads medium cut, is that similar to like a Propel Orange, I use the propel pads from exceldetail.com and Green is light cut, orange is medium cut but says it may require a second pass with green.. I just got a new honda with light swirls and the paint is soft from what I read so if I can get away with one pass and a green pad I would be stoked.
