A big thanks to Jim (stickman81) for coming over and helping out. Jim ran the PC on all the vertical panels and helped apply the LSP. 8)



New Dodge Charger SRT8 Super Bee w/ 450 miles:. Good friend just picked it up last Sunday. Not sure how long this car sat on the lot, but the claying removed alot of contamination.

Love those cars, can't say I really like the decals all over that one, but still a nice car. Chrysler paint sure does cut like butter though, looks great.
 
Thanks guys!

Very wet looking yellow......:xyxthumbs



Have you have better luck with Z5P or Z2P on that color from your experience.....?

I think the Z5pro is going to make it deeper.
 
Great job as usual and you really know how to make a yellow paint looks shiny and wet :2thumbs: .



Btw what's your opinion on the CCS pads ? I am thinking of ordering some but cannot decide what to order, the regular or the CCS :confused: .
 
What a great way to spend the day haning out with friends and working on cars.



The car is awesome. I got to go for a ride and I was really impressed with the sprints and the way the car cornered. The interior is very nice with lots of goodies built-in like Homelink and in-dash navigation and a Blue Tooth system. The seats and steering wheel had nice touches with the yellow baseball stitching.



I was also amazed at the amount of contamination that came off the car onto the clay bars. I'd heard about the need for claying a new car, but never exerpienced it until yesterday.



The Zaino Clear Seal is an awesome, easy to use product. I'll be looking forward to getting some for my mini arsenal.
 
Man oh man, thats all I can say............

Nice car, beautiful makeover. Thats the first SB I have seen, period.

That dealer should be closed for selling such a fine peice of equipment, in such a filthy manner..........(Swirls)
 
Thanks everyone for your kind words!

Scott, I got to drive it, but didn't really want to get on it hard as it still breakin' in. Seems to have plenty of low end torque. (no surprise) The balance of the car is not bad at all for the 4300lbs (I think) feels nice and stable thru turns. Seats are very nice.....

Awesome car and color too.

Say.......do you have any engine shot by any chance?

Sorry no money shots. Plenty of room in the engine bay.

Patrick, I was just glad it was not worse. They washed the car before he picked it up, so I am thinking thats where the swirls came from.

Jim, Again thank you very much for your help. Yes you just can't beat a day when friends get together and the final result is :D from a good friend as his new toy is looking good.



I should of got some pics of the clay, the car must of been sitting for a while on the lot.
 
I love these cars! They are beasts. This is the first Super-Bee I've seen, I really like it.



Can't believe that thing was that heavily damaged from just sitting on the lot.
 
Charisma, My guess would be that the swirling was caused byt the car being cleaned up after sitting on the lot for a while.



Thanks Mike! I told the owner he needs a new pair of yellow shoes. :chuckle:
 
That is the best looking Mpoar detail I have seen in a while - it practically changed colors (yeah it still is that horrible yellow though....hehe). Make sure the owner gives you an update on how the product wears on the stripes. I would be interested in seeing if there is any difference.



As always, fabulous job and kudos the PSD detail squad.
