Finaly the Sun, Opti-Seal a TL & 400 hp STi

It has been over cast and rainy for the last week here in South Texas.
I had this Acura TL in the shop for a complete detail. The customer wanted to pick up in the am so I was happy to see the sun today.
Wash then clay
Hood was a repaint and needed some wool work with Optimum compound.
The rest of the car was worked with Optimum Polish & LC white pad with rotary @ 1500
The finish polish was done with an Optimum finishing 100ppi pad and Opti- Polish @ 1500
2 coats of the new Opti-Seal were applied in the afternoon and 2 coats the next morning.
Tires Opti-Bond Tire Gel.










The STi was not in bad shape.
Wash then clay
Polish with Opti polish with a white LC pad @ 1500
Cyclo with Poli-Seal and white pads
2 coats of Opti-Seal
Tires Optimum Opti-Bond tire gel.

I will see the STi in the next week for some PDR paintless dent repair.

Both look great, the STi wheel/tire combo looks exceptionally clean!

Excellent work on both cars, Ron.

Very wet looking paint on both.

Great turnaround on both!

Those are some nasty door dings on the Scooby. I hate it when people park next to me.

Re: Finaly the Sun, Opti-Seal a TL & 400 hp STi

Thanks guys for the kind words

This guy has dings in 3 doors and the LFF.
By next week it will be ding free.
The whels are special order. I don't remember the mfg. He said something like 700.00 per.
He will be doing other mods to the motor to bump it to 700hp!
