Lexus RX300, Merc SL600, 928 interior, G35 coupe, 01 `stang

[imported_Picus]

Hi everyone; nothing super exciting in this update. A full detail on a beat up RX300, a quick polish on an SL600, G35, and a stang and a 928 interior detail. Here goes.



1998 Lexus RX300. Pretty bad swirling, a couple re-painted areas with a lot of overspray, some deep scratches from use, and a long one on the side from a toll booth, a big ol` random scuff on the rear bumper, you get the idea. Interior was typical of a 7 year old car that sees heavy use.



Process:



Wash with ONR

clay

Wetsand passenger side doors/read fender (two long deep scratches), and rear hatch, and rear bumper scuff.

Menzerna PG/RMG, orange pad, rotary 1500rpm

Menzerna IP/RMG grey pad, rotary 1400 rpm

PO106FF/grey via PC.

Poorboys EX-P

Eagle one to clean the wheels and tires, 303 to dress all the goodies.

A lot of woolite/water on the interior, leather got pristine clean and rejuv oil.



right panel polished, left not...

Porsche 928; same owner as the SL and RX, exterior is in need of a polish but he`s selling it so he`s unsure if he wants it done. Interior was in ok shape, needed a good shampoo and a ton of rejuv oil on the leather.

`01 Mustang. Same owner as the Maranello I did the other day. This one needed more exterior work than I gave it, but that`s what they wanted...

Clearkote RMG

Clearkote Carnauba

Poorboys Trim Restore x 11billion on the trim

Interior was really bad, it`s better now, no pics because I suck.

Very impressive work on the RX300--you really made it look new again! :bigups

You made that G35 gorgeous, too.! :drool:

Your clients should be very happy.

[stilez]

Exciting or not, your work is stunning...period.







Too bad about that Ford trim...it is absolutely horrendous.

[imported_Picus]

Thanks guys.



Yes, the trim was really bad. It was more faded than any car I`ve done that was made in the past 5-years. The rubber gaskets around the windows were also cracking and beyond repair. In the pics I was in the process of *another* round of trim restore. I`d say realistically that I did 10 passes with it; the trim just kept sucking it up. Finally I stopped getting results so I dressed it with some natural look and called it a day.



I totally wanted to detail the exterior of the 928, only because the outside is really swirled up. I will see if I can talk him into it. :)

Nice selection of cars you have there, all look terrific! :)



Incredible improvement on the Lexus! :bow

[s2skimon]

wow.. ya, that lexus wetsanding the plastic rear fender turned out awesome

[imported_Picus]

Thanks guys. Looks like I will be doing the exterior of that 928 when I do his bike. Yay! I almost want to buy it off him, he`s selling it for a bargain price.
