Spent the weekend doing a pre-winter detailing.
I Love black for the 15 minutes its clean

 

looks amazing. What do you use?

 

Looks great. Mine also stays clean about 15 minutes. Lol should of bought a white or silver.

 

I used meguiars gold class liquid soap, followed by gold class liquid wax I applied via d/a, then meguiars spray detailer.I skipped the polishing this time as it didn't need it.

Thanks for the compliments.

 

Looks very nice. I like the Meguiars stuff. Haven't really cared to detail a car until I bought my max a few months ago. Since then Meguiars has collected quite a bit of my money. Lol. Thinking about trying this zaino stuff that seems to be all the rage.

 

Lol my last car had zero detailing done and now I have products coming out my $?!. I've always wanted to try the zaino as well. Let me know how it works. I think my next purchase will be a foam cannon for my pressure washer though, just looks like fun!

 

looks good bro i love black cars the only problem is that every scratch is visible other then that its the one of the hottest colors for a car

 

I agree it is definitely the best color for that short window of time

 

looks great man! it'd look even better with Zaino =D

 

I wonder if I can get it locally anywhere or if I have to order online. Damn you guys

 

online only for Z


car looks great check out pinnacle souveran for black it looks amazing

 

I got a HUGE test monday, can't wait to detail mine on tuesday

 

Looks awsome.

Don't u wish it would always stay that clean

 

i dunno, when i wash my KH3, and use "the absorber" on it, it looks clean as hell, esp from several feet away, for a good week or two.

 

I suppose from a few feet it looks clean but I'm looking at my car closer than that, but to each his own. You'll save yourself a ton of time on washing.

 

I'm working on an invisible force field to keep the dirt at bay

 

Got to love a nice clean black car. I'm glad Nissan offers variants on black like Crimson Black and Malbec Black for Infiniti. Otherwise I would have had three black cars in a row. I'll have to pick up a black 8th gen when they come out.

 

Finally got to it

 

Looks good, nice work!

 

wow looks great

 

Agreed! Cant beat Zaino!

 

Harsh2888, car looks great, better spend some time on that grass tho.

 

I put my first coat of wax on this past weekend. It's really slick now and stays much cleaner. I do get dirt spots after just 1 day (the curse of owning a white car) but they all spray right off...no need for soap really with a fresh coat of wax.

I'll be looking to get another coat on before the winter hits full force. I am in the market for a random orbital buffer...I have one that's like 10 years old and never used...the rubber parts are all sticky and tacky, but the motor has never been used. Well, I used it last weekend with some nitrile goves to avoid the tacky rubber parts.

It's between the Griot's Garage and the Porter Cable. Both are like $120 give or take from amazon (I am a Prime member).

I've chosen Turtle Wax Ice as my line of products to start out with. I have their waterless car detailer, spray wax, liquid wax, and wash concentrate.

I use the spray detailer and spray wax in the door jambs, and the spray wax also goes on the wheels. I picked the liquid wax specifically because it's safe to use on all external surfaces of the car. I don't have to be careful, or tape anything off. Even with that crappy buffer I own, it took like 45 minutes to wax my car...it would have taken hours to do it by hand with a conventional paste wax...and still a long time with a buffer if I had to take my time watching out of rubber trim pieces and getting the paste out of every crack.

If I can get my wax time down to a half hour, I'll wax my car every month

 

I bought a meguiars g110 v2 d/a, I love it.
