Hello everyone! It was a nice weekend in Minnesota, so I was able to tackle a little more of the winter prep vehicles that are on my list. I had done the Accord about 6 months ago and the FK1 #218 still had some beading/sheeting, but the slickness was out the door.





Wheels/Wells:



-Cleaned with hi temp wheel cleaner 1:1 with meguiars brushes, PW assist

-Tires dressed with Zaino Z16

-Wheels dressed with Meguiars Hyper Dressing 2:1



Engine



-Cleaned with hi temp APC 4:1 with pw assist

-Dressed with meguiars hyper dressing 2:1

-Painted areas final cleaned with hi temp apc 20:1, and shined with Z8



Final Process



-Z7 via foam gun / 2 sheepskins / 2 buckets

-Klasse AIO (no marring)

-Zaino Z12 on glass

-Sealed with Zaino Z5, Zfx'd (paint, glass, wheels)

-Final Wipedown with Z8 (paint, glass, wheels)

About 3.5-4 months ago I sealed up my car with Z5pro zfx'd x 3 and since then it has only received 1 more coat of z5, and bi weekly washes followed by z8 wipedowns. I washed it yesterday but it poured on it while I was out voting. Luckily since the zaino rinses so clean, I was able to shine it up today with a z6 wipedown. The finish I have is so beautiful and so slick that you would think I applied the sealant yesterday. :dance

The accord is looking great and the paint is ready to go for that northern winter.



Greg, You cavalier like said above is the best looking one that I have ever seen.
 
Both look great but your Cavalier is just amazing! Pretty much every other one I have ever seen looks beat up but yours looks like it rolled right out of the paint booth! :bow
 
Thanks for the amazing comments everyone! I take pride in keeping my car looking its best, even if it is a cavalier.



tabinha - I drive all seasons, well, all season.

The Honda was looking pretty good until I ran into the pics of your car.



Holy Mother of *$%$#!!! The paint on your Cavi is flat out wicked looking.
 
Greg,



Keep practicing and someday you'll be able to park within the lines. :D :D Just bustin' on ya man! The cars look great. I've yet to see a cavalier in person that looks anything like that, and there are quite a few of them on the road.



The honda looks great too. That's a cool color.

I'm sure Greg parks like that to avoid door dings.

Bingo! It looks hilarious to everyone, I am sure, but with 5-6 feet between other cars I can sleep at night.



Thanks for the amazing comments everyone!
