Posting this here as well because I didnt find a whole lot of Torch Red cars with pics on here when I searched.



As much as I hate to admit it, Yvette doesn`t belong to me. She belongs to a close family friend. I have been wanting to clean her up again for a long time, but I don`t get to see her very much. She`s a 2000 Vette with just a hair under 15K miles on her. She`s definitely a fair weather car, but I love to take her around the block when I am allowed. Anyway, as you can imagine, she isnt in rough shape as she has such low mileage and is queen of the garage.



Here`s what I did:

Wash (Megs GC)

Clay (clay magic)

SSR2.5 with a light cut pad

SSR1 with a polishing pad

EX-P with a finishing pad

Natty`s with an Adam`s MF applicator



I used VRT everywhere it belongs (trim, dash, tires etc.) and Adam`s Leather conditioner on the leather. I also used In&Out on all the black trim (located in the front bumper...where the holes are, and also on the trim inside the holes near the trim molding on the doors) and in the wheel wells. I know better than to post pics of a car without cleaning the wells on this forum. Mats got Adam`s carpet cleaner and then I used my LGCM to finish them up.



For anyone who might be interested, Yvette has a K&N intake, BBK 80mm throttle body, Custom tune, Granetelli MAF, and Corsa daytona rear sections.

Beautiful job on the Vette, it shows you put some effort into it. Have always loved them but the C5`s and C6`s are beautiful.

Your friend is lucky to have you taking such good car of their car.
