Almost dead MX-6

My nephew came to visit this weekend and brought his badly neglected Mazda MX-6. It lay under the elements for about 8 months while he was in Iraq :usa . I saw a chance to play around with the PC and try some products. We were not able to fully finish the car due to time. He is planning to sell it for $700. After working on it I told him he could get $750 for it now :LOLOL

Some befores, note the clear coat failure:

During, I hit it with #80 and a Megs cutting pad followed by #80 with yellow polishing pad

One in the garage the next day. I followed the #80 with Mothers PP and was able to get rid of some streaking that was almost like holograms and would not come out with #80.

and outside, note the difference of the sunroof and trunk that were not done, I used Duragloss 105 for an LSP (same as the Jeep in the background):

wheels and tires were cleaned with BMW wheel cleaner, tires dressed with Megs Endurance Gel (natural)

and after, hard sufaces cleaned with Simoniz Orange Degreaser (from Big Lots), followed by Megs QID, then Megs Vinyl/rubber protectant. Carpets with good old "Tuff Stuff" and Folex:

By the way, no pics of the driver's side because it has deer damage!
 
I dont see how he can only get $750 out of that...Even with deer damage I would put a price tag of $2,000 on that baby



Looks great, nice job!!

I think he could get about $1500 or so now that it is cleaner. We also cleaned the engine bay a bit but he had to leave back to his base. He might drop by again next weekend and we can finish up. I will post an update if we are able to. BTW, I edited the content to add more of the process/products.
