Hi there,



My father in law`s Toyota was just screaming `SAVE ME` the poor thing had not been washed for about a year. As he was on a holiday I dicided to surprise his by making his car look like new.



This is a before picture

This is after a dawn wash, claying, PI-III (hood) and just one coat of Z5 with ZFX. I was amazed to see that there were only some minor swirls on the car, I guess not washing is helps to keep the paint swirls free :D

The old man was quite surprised when he saw his car, he noticed my hard work right away

Where are you by the way? I don`t recognize that Toyota though it looks like a Corolla variant.

they don`t send `em here because the US is alot harder on emissions and safety regs. than other countries seem to be.



Incidently, nice work on that toyota! Thing kinda reminds me of a bentley arnage with that front end....

Hi there,



I live in the Netherlands, the Toyota is a Corolla.



I think they don`t ship it to the US because it`s to damn small.



The 206 is a Peugeot, I`ll post some pictures later.

:D As of course we here in the UK had guessed - left hand drive and yellow front plate. Not that I would expect you guys to notice that (I wouldn`t have a clue about US licence plates) :)
