Latest details, vLast detail of my Accord, plus Nattys over Souveran

[Scottwax]

I detailed my Accord one last time so it would be easier to sell. Went over the whole interior with water and Woolite and dressed the vinyl with Meguairs D-170 Hyper Dressing cut 2:1 with water. Those dark areas near the gas pedal and where the console meet the carpet are not dirt, just the way the carpeting was laying. If it isn`t all brushed the same way, some spots look dark. Oh well. Those two spots on the front seat would not come out.

I detailed the exterior using Meguiars #80 Speed Glaze and a polishing pad, and then applied NXT Tech Wax with a polishing pad. The front end was repainted about 4-5 years ago, the rest of the car`s paint is the original paint applied in January of 1990 when the car was built.

Here are a couple of cars I wash/wax about 3-4 times a year. I used Poorboy`s Polish w/carnauba with a polishing pad and topped with Meguiars #16.

Natty`s over Souveran. It had been nearly a month since I had used Souveran on the Rolls, but it still looked really good. Topping with Natty`s didn`t really add any depth but the increase in `wetness` was noticable.



I know the pics are a touch dark, it was getting near dusk when I finished the Rolls and pulled it out.

It had been a few weeks since I had last put Souveran on my car, tried Nattys after a QEW wash. Like the Rolls, it was getting near dusk when I finished. Going to be a worsening problems as the days continue to shorten. :(

Took this pic a few days later when I detailed the Q45 and Miata. I had a little more light this time.

[quamen]

I was waiting for these pics :)



Very hard to believe the Honda`s paint is almost 15 years old... Buyer lucked out there :D



That Rolls looks mean as folk. That sun going down pic really looks crazy.



626 looks great as usual. Any plans of a new product combo for it or are you leavin it be for now? :lol



Again, always nice to see your work.

Sean-after I finished the Rolls, the owner noticed the back end was sitting a couple inches higher than normal (some type of adjustable ride height) so he invited me along for a ride to see if driving it would restore the normal height. Anyway, as we were driving along, a couple of cheerleaders were standing by their car and when they noticed the Rolls, they practically wet themselves! He said that was a normal reaction to the car.



BTW, that sucker is SOLID!



My next combo will probably be NXT x 2 and #16 x 2. We`ve had some pretty wet winters and I`d like to see how well this combo will stand up. Maybe add a sacrificial layer of Souveran or Nattys. :nixweiss

:bow . An amazingly detailed Phantom...Not much touches that. I believe it about the cheerleaders. How is the owner? Sounds like a baller :) . How quick is the car? Also, my friend told me the black R`s in the middle of the wheel don`t move at all. The stay perfectly straight and readable when driving...this true?



Sounds like a good combo coming up...Extremely wet looking for the wet winter :)





Any new updates on the Hyper Dressing?

The owner owns several topless clubs, a tattoo parlor and recently opened a bar called "Hot Rods and Harleys" :xyxthumbs



The Rolls has a turboed V12 with 453 hp and 531 lb-ft of torque and a 7 speed automatic. He didn`t get on it, but he did prod the gas pedal a bit and the copious amount of torque was very evident!



The "RR" in each wheel does stay straight up as the wheels spin. Pretty cool.

If #16 can make that aqua Miata glow like that, it can certainly do it on black!




Any new updates on the Hyper Dressing?



I`m probably going to go with 3:1 ratio of water to Hyper Dressing. It leaves a very nice sheen and brings the effective cost down to about $9 per gallon.

Thanks for the pics and combinations, Scott.



Miata`s have such nice colors. The Rolls! A beautiful job on a beautiful machine. Natty`s over Souveran. How do you come up with these combinations? It was great therapy for me to see these after a LONG day.



Tonight...third car today...I`ve been de-tarring a neglected badly swirled five year old white Dodge Intrepid just back from killing every bug from Colorado to El Paso. Finally finished the wash, clay, tape and it`s garaged for later. Can`t wait to get after the Taco Sauce on the carpets. :rolleyes: Time to hit the shower...



Some guys get the Rolls :) and some guys get the Grits.:(

The carpet in the accord looks to have a nice pile and probably easy to vac and clean.
