THis is only half days work and I am still not done yet. Now if Kevin sees this I got a question. What is the best way to keep my Titanium tips nice looking. I know wax and other are useless because it just melts away.

 

the detailing is coming along very nicely eric

 

Lookin' good Eric.....excellent work........

Kevin might have a good suggestion for the tips. I just keep mine waxed and clean regularly so that dirt and crap doesn't build up too much.
Chrome cleaner works well for getting the grime off, and if you do it weekly, they're easy to keep clean.

Lookin' sweet Eric!

 

good work so far!!

you might consider wheel wax which should handle the temps. That's what I use .

 

car looks damn good so far

 

Few more shots: I love my camera!

 

You guys in Canada had all winter to detail your cars and complete your
favorite mod.......you should be driving your G! Damn, it does look amazing
though.....why did you wait so long? haha

 

love with what u done to the car

how do you like mrev?

do u think you will get the spacer as well?

 

goodjob dude...if u ever like to give any detailing advice to a fellow canadian feel free

 

I am in no way good at giving advice, everything I learned was from Kevin, attending his info session to asking him which products are the best to use and buying a porter cable. The only advice that I can really give you is take your time don't rush, hence the whole weekend just to detail my car. Of course I took breaks here and there etc but i think if i did it with out taking any breaks is about 8 hour job.

 

Nice work Eric

I wish the he11 I paid more attention at Kevin's workshop.
Did my 1st PC job last night...
Turned out great, but I still have a lot to learn.

 

nice work, what did you use to take off the swirls?

 

There are multiple steps and I want to mentioned that in the picture it might look perfect but up close there are still a few scratches that you just can't take off. I think Kevin can detest to that that polish and wax can only take off about maybe 85 percent of all scratches. The rest might require more then that or have a great paint job to begin with.

Anyways this is what I used depending on the condition of the paint.

Yellow Pad with Menzerna Intensie Polish (only if heavy scratches and swirls)
Orange Pad with Menzerna Final Polish II (Minor Swirls)
White Pad Menzerna Finishing Touch (remove any holograms)
Black pad Menzerna FMJ Paint

Then hand apply Poor Boy (Blue) Carnuba Wax
Then Spray on some Menzerna High Gloss Acrylic Shield

Last step damp distled wet towel to run the car over to remove excess wax

 

sweeet!
