A few vehicles

Non clear-coated too.



I worked the paint with Meguiars Dual Action Cleaner/Polish, then Swirl Free Polish, Hand Polish and then High Tech Yellow #26. Took me about 3 hours by hand. I really wish I had a 'before' pic. It wasn't horrible, but definitely oxidized.

That is superb! It looks like a early-mid 90's 911, and the paint job looks even newer! Great job, Scott!

Sort of looks like a Porsche now ... HAHAHA.

I love how that red and black go together! Not a huge Porsche fan, but that looks fabulous...

Nice car, are those bumpers standard (the two large bits) or is it a special for the USA market?

NICEwork, Scottwax1



I'm interested to try the DACP again now that I know more about how to apply diminishing abrasives. Can you give me any idea how it went for you? If you've used FI-II or 3M SMR, would you say you had to work it about the same, more, or less?



Thanks

I just apply DAC/P by hand with a terry cloth towel folded into 1/8ths and work it into the paint until it is nearly clear and dry. Usually a 2' x 2' section at a time, then buff off the excess. Same with Swirl Free Polish.

I really couldn't tell you about the 3M products-the only ones I've used are Imperial Hand Glaze (excellent shine!) and Perfect-it Paste Wax.

Havent posted all that much lately,

Figured I would just share some of the vehicles I have done recently.

Nothing too special, they were just washed, prepped, clayed, and sealed for the most part, interiors were completed too.

If anyone has any specific questions regarding a product or process feel free to ask, just a little too lazy to do a lot of typing.

Oh my god Nick!:w00t: I saw some cars in there....lol

They all look great. The tires on that VW looked pretty nasty. You got them all looking nice and shinny.:thumbup:

What dilution did you use in the foam gun? I assume it is Meg's GC.

Thank you Barry.

I sprayed those tires down with Meguiars Super Degreaser at 4:1, let dwell, foam with the foam gun, agitate, then rinse.

What dilution did you use in the foam gun? I assume it is Meg's GC.

I used GC on some of the vehicles. Megs NXT, Super Soap, and Shampoo Plus were used as well.

Some were lower dilution, some higher.

I use anywhere from 5 to 10oz in the gun then filled with water.

Nice work Nick :rockon:

Thanks Flash.
