I was surprised that the Accord took to SFX-1 and SFX-3 that well. However, looks like I am going to have to invest in some QEW and some Diamond Cut Compound. :D

I had only used QEW once before, on thurs on my MR2 and that only really had waterspots.



we did a nice blue VW Golf R32 with it. . .no pics though from me of that. . .

Wow the Honda looks better in pictures then it did live. We gotta do this again. I wish we would have had more time to spend on the Honda , but I see that you got the inside windows and the wheels, that makes a big difference right there. The job done on the Maxima was outstanding, Thanks alot David and Prinz for setting the meet up.

well. . .I needed a car to drive while my MR2 went from a 135HP NA car that looked sporty but drove slowly to a 225+HP Turbosharged beast. . .and the accord was the cheapest most reliable car I could afford (paid $2100 for her!)



The MR2 is far from done, so I don`t think the accord will get more than basic maintenance and repairs for the time being. . .

I did another car yesterday,a 02 Blazer, dark blue car was in very good shape. I used Collinite 845 IW on it . Now Ill see if it lasts as long as they say.

yup.



last night, I rinsed her down with QEW and wiped her dry, and cleaned up the black trim on the doors and at the bottom, and put tire dressing on the tires.



She looks sooo purty right now. . .

I haven`t heard from the Black Max owner (yet). I want to see how the Autoglym holds up.
