For both of my cars, just Z6 or OG Show-Off with a MT, and wiping down the interior.
Then I`m going to try Souveran and Paint Cleansing Lotion on my dad`s brick... err... Volvo.

I went outside earlier today and it was a bit nippy (40 degrees). Plus, I need to get my right rear window`s regulator replaced.
It`s supposed to be warmer next week and I will take care of it.
I was gonna wash the car today. But i spent most of the day shopping for a new snow blower. Maybe tomorrow i`ll have the energy.
Today I waxed my roof, cleaned my wheels, waxed the door jams, Black Magic`d my running boards, and Back-to-Black`d my air deflector on the liftgate. I also took apart one of my fried amps in the back, so now it smells like burned-up amp and cologne! I also spot QD`d some places, and thats about it. I was going to wax my running boards before winter, but it wont get done today.
Washed, Klasse SG, and Blitz Waxed, this morning. Nice weather and detailing... go hand in hand.
No buff to tuff
Worked until about 4:00. Then, pulled the right side wheels from the XJR. Cleaned with EF HI, Klasse AIO, Klasse SG, then remounted them.
Tomorrow, who knows?
The possibilities are:
Wash XKR (for sure)
Souveran XKR (Only if I am going to take pictures)
Wash XJR (for sure)
One or two more coats of Blackfire PP on the XJR
AIO and 303 engine bay of XJR
AIO door jams of XJR
AIO trunk metal and jams of XJR
Wax wordwork of XJR
303 interior vinyl of XJR
Maybe get enough done that I can do some BF versus Klasse/Souveran pictures.
:p
hey dean,
the stang` looks awesome. i helped a friend of mine detail his gt this summer. it was in amazingly bad shape. it was hard to believe that a car could look so bad in only a year. i did drive it around for a while and it is definitely a ticket looking for a place to happen. hard not to have a big smile plastered on my face while driving a stang`.
Well, Steve, you know what they say, "no rest for the wicked."
Ahh, my wash plans are being aborted . . . a good chance of rain tomorrow.
Snake,
The car is definitely a lot of fun. By the way that first pic looks very familiar.....

OK, I got a lot accomplished on Sunday -- but not as much as I would have liked.
Here`s the list:
Wash XKR
Souveran XKR
Wash XJR
One more coat of Blackfire PP on the XJR (now 4 total)
AIO and 303 engine bay of XJR
AIO door jams of XJR
AIO trunk metal and jams of XJR
303 trunk plastic of XJR
Thorough vacuum of both
By the time I got finished, there wasn`t enough light for any PF versus Klasse/Souveran pictures. Maybe soon.
Hey michaelb,
those are nice rims on your XJR. Are they factory OEM`s or are they aftermarket? If AM, what brand? BTW, are they 18`s or 19`s? Nice car:up
Thanks Neo.
Those are the factory wheels. 18s with 255/40 Pirelli P Zeros. It absolutely eats rear tires. They last about 12,000 mile! OUCH.
Those wheels were new for the 2000 XJR. The 98 and 99 models had a kind of clunky looking (IMO) 5 spoke. Check out this 99 on ebay and see if you agree with me.
