Hi all,

 

Just thought I'd share a few pics since getting my car back from Dasstech and JAE at the weekend.

After the show I set about detailing the car for winter storage!

I've spent 2 very long evening's after work going though the many stages of detailing.

I'm new to the in depth detailing world and this was my first attempt from start to finish.

I found it very therapeutic cleaning the car though it's stages from start to finish.

 

What do you think?

Great job, do like your zed. Didnt get to see it at Japfest but looks great from Garys pics.

 

It can be quite theraputic and of course you will get the "why do you spend that long on the car, I just wash it and I'm done in an hour" comments from neigbours etc, but its something you only needs to do 2-3 times a year.... The rest of the time you just wash it and it looks like its been waxed everytime!!

 

What products have you used?

Every second is worth it mate you have a stunning car and Long will you have it so take as long as you like i know

Ive bought various products bit used the following this time round.

Like you say with top up of coatings the paint should be clean and protected all year round.

 

Like yourself I've had some comments from the neighbours peeking in the garage. Some think I'm mad haha.

 

Autobrite purple velvet shampoo.

Autobrite cherry glaze polish.

Dirty joks snow foam.

Autobrite tonic grime remover.

3m clay bar.

Poor boys clay lube.

Blackfire blackice sealant.

Autoglym HD wax.

Autobrite project 32 spray detailer.

Poorboys wheel wax/sealant.

Autobrite fall out iron x cleaner.

Poorboys trim/tyre sealant.

Autobrite G101 all purpose cleaner.

Monza glass sealant.

Poorboys interior cleaner.

Autobrite leather cleaner.

Blackfire cream leather sealant.

Autosol metal paste.

 

The garage smells like a sweet shop after applying all the different fragrances from the different products.

 

I've noticed the resolution of the pics are toned down quite a bit which is a shame. Looks even better in person if I do say myself.

Thanks Bob hopefully not long and you will have your zed also. Will be lovely when finished.

The problem is how they get dirty again lol. I wouldn't know where to start

Having seen it at JAE I know how good this Z looks as pics do not do it justice Danny. Love it mate.:yes:

Looking damn good Danny - I wondered whose car that stunning wide-arch was.....

 

....Now I know....:bow:

Thank you other for the very kind words!

I don't think I got to meet everyone as I only know people on here by user name's mainly.

Looking forward to next year's shows ;)

Stunning mate, love the colour.
