Took some time this weekend to give the coupe a coat of wax.

Amazing job dude!!! :-) What did you use on those wheels?....absolute perfection!

Are your windows tinted too? If so, what percentage's around. My friends tell me I should tint, but I've known people that say the tint can sometimes be too much...plus is it true it will turn purple after a couple years?

Thanks for posting this pic!

 

Thanks for the compliments.

Just washed up the wheels and used some tire wet

The windows are tinted. It's about 20% and I need it around here in Florida to protect the leather. All my cars have had tint so it's hard for me to live without it. Only poor quality tint will degrade after a couple of years.

What type of wax did you use??
It looks nice! Good job!

 

Before Zaino, before Crystal Guard, before all these "new and improved" waxes and polishes, there was LIQUID GLASS! It's been around forever and it's by far the best when leaving a high polish finish - period! This stuff works wonders on dark cars. You can pick it up from most any automotive parts and accessories retailer and a bottle of it goes for about $20, but it lasts for a long time. The more you use it, the deeper the shine, and it actually lasts. You also don't need to work yourself out putting it on or taking it off. No special process, nos pecial conditions, no nothing. Wipe on, buff off, you're done!



I've used just about every wax and polish out there, and have even had Mothers Polishes featured cars, but when it comes down to what works the best - LIQUID GLASS takes the cake! Try it! You will be happy!

What should we buy Ducati Guy? Should we buy the liquid glass Pre-Cleaner and Polish Finish or just the Polish Finish? What's the Pre-Cleaner for? Thanks.

 

Funny your should mention Liquid Glass. I had a conversation with an old dude at work when he was checking out my car and he couldn't stop talking about Liquid Glass. He told me to take the pepsi challenge and try it out. If I wasn't satisfied with the product, he would buy it from me. I'll try it after I run out of my other stuff.

Finally someone else who uses Liquid Glass! I have been using it for at least 15 years and would be hard pressed to stop. I also think micro fiber improves upon an already excellent product.

I am with you on this Wreck, I'm an old guy and just completely forgot about "Liquid Glass".(Senelity)
I used it on my first new car decades ago, also after i'm out of what I use now , i'm going to get some Liquid Glass.

 

i use to use liquid glass on my old car for six years, and the shine was great, unfortionately i felt it did not protect my paint well. around the fifth year of owning my car the paint started to fade.

 

That is good information, because some of these new products have been on the market for so little time , I wonder how they will work out in the long run.
I do not mind the constant re waxing with carnouba based products, but i wish there was a happy medium, and reading these posts has helped me to narrow down the choices.
Thanks again.

 

i dont know about liqued wax but i used Griot's Garage Best of show wax and there machine polish number 3 ever three mounths then every month i use crystal gruard. And all i can say is holy [censored] cuz my car is super slick. I have been using this combo for about 9 mounths now and if i drop a towol on my hood it will slide right off. and the water just runs right off. i would highly recomend my combo becuase i know it pertecs and its looks great. my only complant is that the best of show wax does not shimmer like the crystal guard does. but damn does it reflect

 

ducatiguy...
I'm late on this response, but I just want to confirm that you prefer Liquid Glass over Crystal Guard?!?!
I haven't used either products, but am about to order CG...anyone else agree that Liquid Glass is better?
