Hi These are my 2 cars. The 4Runner just came back from a 500 mile trip to Maine, it had so many bugs and bird dropings, I needed to give it some love. So I went to the local autoparts store and got some #16 and Wheel Brightener. I too was shocked to see #16. What a good wax. A little difficult at first, but once I got used to it. The shine really comes a day or so later and with some fk425 on top it's pretty slick.



So a quick detail and a wash.



4Runner:

wash with TWUP wash

Wheel Brightener on wheels and tires cut 4:1

Polish hood with PC and OCH follwed by FPII

Wax entire car with #16 (I don't have #16 mastered yet) very nice wax.

NXT Glass cleaner on outside.

FK 425 next day for some extra gloss.

Black magic foam on tires(yuck)

Thanks Scott! The pics are not very high res. If you don't mind, how do I apply #16 Thinly? I used a MF applicator and just did a quick touch to the can. #16 seems like a real winner and I was shocked to see it at the local store, so I bought it up. I did not really have a need for it other than the hype, and it live up to it.
