Azure blue 350z huge thread A long thread but worth the read Car was dropped off so the before's (running out of light): Citrus pre wash, then two bucketed and iron max applied to wheels: At that point I was out of light so into the garage to be dried,clayed,taped up and paint depth readings taken:
Bare in mind the correctional ability it was a lovely finish left: As opti coat was being used I wanted to get the best finish possible possible so tested out these 2, been so impressed with the Britemax Blackmax: Leaving: The winner:
Couldn't pick it up in photographs but the Blackmax just left it looking more blue whilst the menzerna looked to have a touch more gloss the blackmax side looked better.This was then wiped down with Spies Heckler panel wipe (ignore the bottle) and dusted leaving the following: Onto the other bits,britemax grime out doing a great job under the bonnet: Gyeon can coat to wheels and calipers,wheels are being refurbished soon but wanted to get them looking as good as possible till then:
Exhaust cleaned up with the rotary and megs: Interior tidied up: Windscreen coated with G1: Car was then wiped down with Modesta:
Great work, just shows how much better cars can look when properly corrected. I don't suppose you've done a LY Renault and have any before and after shots?
That's amazing, truly. Top work. It seemed to be in pretty bad state before hand - what do people do to their cars?
when i was scrolling down, and came to the `manly and not gay at all`..feather duster, i thought you had peter stringfellows mullet on a stick..no wonder you cleaned it in the garage with such implements used! If you ever valet elton johns car,for god sake, dont bend down,without keeping your eyes on him at all times.
Any chance you could post a few up please? (Different thread if you like). My LY paint is reasonably good but I'd like to see a fully corrected car!
