Here’s a great example on what I can do to a car in ~4 hours. The car came in COVERED, I wasn’t sure what I was getting into. It was a simple all-in-one job in which I usually lean over to grab the Optimum Poli-seal, but after doing just the hood, and a little change in my evening plans, I opted to give Eric’s car a little bit extra free of cost. Instead of the AIO, I went with Menzernas PO85RD and topped it with Menzerna’s Sealing Wax. Honda’s soft clear coat allowed the finishing polish to rid a lot of swirls. On to the pics!

Last minute wax job on Snow White! Gave Jason’s Ridgeline a must needed LSP (Last Step Protection) job consisting of a all-in-one polish (cleaner/mild polish/Minimal protection) “Optimum Poli-seal”, topped with Menzerna’s Sealing Wax for some added longevity. A clay job was much needed as the paint was pretty contaminated. Not too many pictures as I started the job at 7pm! The interior was dry but nothing a little 303 couldn’t fix!

I definitely did not expect to spend 7 hours on this car. O well – Thanh has been a supporter even before he got his own detailed, so I didn’t mind the extra work. Swirls were abundant and many light-medium scratches as well. I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves. I’m exhausted. Tomorrow I will be doing Thanh’s other car.

This low mileage 2009 beauty came rolling in Saturday morning. Ravi took advantage of my American Cancer Society Fundraising price in which I took donated practically 35% of the cost to ACS. The car was in pretty good condition, a few scratches here and there which I removed with Meguiars M105 Ultra Cut Compound. Swirls were taken care of with my go-to Menzerna products as I do for almost all Honda paints. What the car needed most, however, was a clay job. Anyways, if you would like to contribute to the American Cancer Society, here is the link (click me).

It’s one thing to have a girl who understands car care, it’s another to have that same girl drive one of the few 5speed Manual 2000 Honda Accord coupes! Serena’s car came in looking pretty clean (woohoo white cars!), but a quick hose to the paint reviewed all the dirt sitting on the paint waiting to be washed off. Under the halogens, defects were hard to capture due to the color of the car (sorry for the lack of more before pictures – as you can see I gave up after taking the before of the front end haha), but for the most part, the paint was rough, hazy, and dull looking. Nothing a thorough clay job (Thanks Serena for helping!!!) and a good polish can’t take care of! Trunk jams and gas cap area definitely never received any attention – so I gave it a good ONR wipedown. Seals had caked in residue from her previous wax job, Black WOW took care of that, while the headlights got hit with the wool pad to bring them back to life.
Too nice! She even brought me a bagel & juice before I started, and a Cinnamon roll before she took off! Thanks again Serena!
