Redid the white maxima + pink wax x3

[Thomas Dekany]

My neighbor`s car that I polished out with SSR3 but it left some marring.

Had a chance to do it yesterday. Started at 2:30 pm finished 3 hours later and it was getting cold an humid - we had 3+ inches of snow today :mad: I`ll wash her car again and take daytime pictures. The paint came out very wet looking.

So this morning I look out the window and see the owner of the maxima cleaning the snow off of her car with one of those CVS brush/scraper thing! Yesterday I noticed that the trunk was covered with swirls - Now I knew how they happend:D

So I am debating if I should stop her from doing the whole car and go to put some pants on - I go out to my balcony to tell her to stop destroyng the paint on her car and what do I see? She is wiping the snow off of MY CAR!!!! She did the right side and half of the roof. Now I am sure I have to repolish the car. SHe tried to reassure me that it is a soft brush.:mad: :mad: :confused: :confused:



She received a quick 101 on car paint. :D:angry :angry :angry

She thought she was being a good neighbor. :nono

I hope she knows better now!

Think of it as a `thank you`.



They`re just love swirls ;)

Yeah.... she was trying.



I don`t think she will go anywhere near my car :D



First thing I told her was that I forgive her for scretching my car :D

Kinda OT, but what is and acceptable autopian method of cleaning off snow?



Good work BTW.

[Thomas Dekany]

I use a microfiber mitt.

[White95Max]

I clean off MOST of the snow with my hand. I don`t clear the snow all the way to the paint. The thin layer that`s left, I let slide off on it`s own as I drive. The heat from the engine/cabin warms the body panels and allows the snow to melt on the bottom, and slide off of the car.

Jeez, nice combo for white you`ve found! Did you go swimming in the hood when you finished! ;)



Your car looks terrific as always.

[REX-RACER]

LOL! Nice, although as I was reading through the thread from the first two pictures to the second two pictures I thought "Woa! He poliched it so much it changed colors!" :eek:



Your Jetta looks good but I gotta ask what wheel/tire combo you`re runnin` in back and why so much camber? Or is that just in the photo?

I leave that stuff on too. When the snow on the car is fresh I just wipe off the top of the door/part of the roof so the snow doesn`t fall into the car.

Thanks Scott for both compliments.



I am trying to use up the 3M wax. Good stuff, but it is kind of hard to apply.
