8 Hrs. Later.....Detail Day (56k Warning)

[Just Another V6]

All in all it took me a total of 8 hours maybe more.

I washed the car, then claybared the car and washed the car again, then polished the car with turtle wax polish, then used meguairs color-x then I used meguairs number 7 glaze, then meguairs gold class wax then meguairs NXT.

I used a foam pad on a buffer to apply the polish then I wipped off with microfibre towel then buffed it in with a terry cloth bonnet. Then applied the colorx with a terry clothe bonnet and wiped off with microfibre then buffed it in with a clean bonnet, then used terrycloth bonnet to apply the glaze then wiped off with microfibre then used a clean bonnet to buff in. Then used a terry cloth bonnet to apply wax then wiped with microfibre then buffed with terry cloth then used terry cloth bonnet to apply nxt and buffed with terry and then rebuffed...

Awesome color [img]graemlins/rock.gif[/img]

You ought to ditch the wheels though...

[97rs]

you put gold class and nxt wax on?

[hockeyman]

Sweeeeet shine!
One suggestion though; Please get rid of those wheels. It's a shame to see a shine that nice on hubcaps. [img]graemlins/barf.gif[/img]

I agree about the wheels; it's not your fault: GM does have issues with ugly rims/hubcabs

The shine looks awesome, and I love your hood a lot.

im pretty sure the NXT took off the gold class when u put it on.

yep, you cannot layer cleanr waxes, they jsut take off the previous coat. Only reason to do more then one coat is to make sure you didn't miss a spot.

As far as I know only a few polishes actually layer on top of them selves and Zaino is one.


Either way car looks great.

meguiar's has a 3 step system that layers. The paint cleaner, polish, and wax...works very good by the way, makes the car really smooth.

Very nice.... That's what my car needs, I nice waxing!!!

I was wondering how long it would take Eric to put in a Zaino post. 7.5 hrs. Your slipping.

Thats it after 8 hrs? what a waste of time and effort


Just kidding man, just kidding, It looks really nice, like liquid glass.
Now get about 30 ft behind the car, run as fast as you can, and see how fast you slide across hood.

8 hours? jesus, only took like 3 to do my 4 coats of zaino, and it looks better!


im just messin, yours looks good too. but those wheels..........my god.

[Camarorulz]

From the looks of it he also detailed the interior, so don't give him too hard of a time on how long it took. Paint looks great! Wheels look bad, but it's not your fault. It takes a hell of a lot to make a Camaro look bad. Good job!!!! :thumbsup:
