Detailed just in time for a meet

I want to give a big thumbs up to Detailed Image for offering great products and loads of great information in his stickied thread. I decided to take the step up and bought a PC kit with pads and some polishes and wax to detail my car. With all the information from his thread and website I was able to get a nice detail with out feeling worried I would ruin my paint. (since my camera is still being shipped I had to borrow some pics from our meet today that other members took )

Here are couple pictures.

Here's one more that someone else just posted from the meet. Once my camera gets here I'll try and get close up shots. Thanks to JB for the great picture (that I'm secretly borrowing )

Also I forgot to mention in the first post the products from Detailed Image that I bought and used.

Washed and claybared followed by
Menzerna PO106ff with orange pad
Menzerna FPII with white pad
Poorboy's Natty's Blue paste wax hand applied

I was going to put a layer of zaino z5 down before the wax but I was exhausted working in the Florida heat so I decided to just apply the wax for now. Once it starts to wear I'll strip the wax apply the z5 and reapply a new coat of Natty's Blue so I have the added protection.

Thanks!

Yeah it was a great turn out, I think someone counted 60 cars that showed up (a mix of G35's, a few G37's and a couple 350z's).

OB Coupe....Detailed!

Wow, that's clean OB coupe....nice rims, bumper and grille. Dark colors are
really a challange to keep looking that good! One small bit of advice, clean
your wheel wells next time you go to a show/meet.

Haha yeah, I totally forgot to do that. Thanks for pointing it out I'll be sure to remember from now on.

good job on the detail, some close up pics would really show the benefits of the PC. The KS replica looks pretty good but I hope some sides/rear are on the way soon

I have a set of Impul sides already, I'm waiting on the outcome of Klumzyee's replica Chargespeed rear to be finished. I figured since the front has a few rock chips I'd just wait and have all three painted at once.

Looks good. Next time try cleaning and dressings your wheel wells. They really are an eyesore on the rest of the beautiful car.
