I dont usually post pics of cars without paint correction but i had to post this awesome car up.

I really enjoy working on cars like this because i know the owner REALLY takes pride in this car and really cares about it :buttrock

The Owner contacted me Via Local Car forum. He had stated that he lives in The Bay Area and was driving his car down for the Japanese Classic car show in Irvine. He was looking for someone to clean the car up the show since the drive will make it filthy. I agreed to do the job Over night so the car would be fresh for the show in the morning!!! Since the paint was in very good condition and the car is VERY well maintained, The owner requested no paint correcting.

Since the car was going to a show and the owner wanted that "Pop" i went with my favorite Silver Pop Combo, Wet Mirror Finish + 1Z Glanz Wax

Wheels:
- CG Wet Mirror Finish
- 1Z Glanz Wax
- CG VRP

Underhood:
- CG Wet Mirror Finish
- SmartWax NuShine

Interior:
- Invisible Glass
- CG Wet Mirror Finish

Wash:
- Adam's Shampoo (For Wheels)
- CG Citrus Wash+Gloss
- Natural Sea Sponge

Clay:
- CG Medium Claybar
- CG Speed Wipe

Protection:
- CG Wet Mirror Finish
- 1Z Glanz Wax

Metal
- Master Formula Metal Polish
- Meguire's Synthetic Sealant

Anything look odd about this tag?

looks awesome! wow. so what do u find makes laser red pop the most now that you are a guru...?

I like to bring out the Flake on Laser Red.

Currently here is my final Combo on my SN95

CG Deep Reflections XP
CG Wet Mirror Finish
Wolfgang Deep Gloss Sealant
CG 50/50 Concours Paste

This combo makes Laser Red BRIGHT AS F*CK. in the day the car looks VERY red, not dark at all.

I dont really like the pinkish/orangish red that it turns I like the DEEP red personally...pics? Have u tried clearkote i swear by it with the laser red but like I said I like the deep wet look but maybe popping the metallics would look cool.

better then that purple stuff you got me to buy that time lol...remember?
