nice job but infiniti/nissan paint SUCKS so bad.. just way too much orange peel and there's nothing you can do about it.. I hate orange peel.


Please don't tell me that Infiniti paint doesn't suck because it does.. Sucks monkey *****.

 

yeah it does! it's also because they put the clear coat on heavier and lighter in some areas and it is waaaay to uneaven. thats a heavy contributor to the orange peel. but ya gotta make due with what you got!

 

Nice work! Your a skinny white dude like me...

 

What did you use on your interior? That looks amazing.

 

LoL honestly all I used was just some meguiars leather and vinyl cleaner and Meguiars Interior quick detail. I just keep it SUPER clean all the time and dont allow food or muddy shoes in my car lol, so it didnt take much work. Just a wipe down of the trim,dash, and cup holders. and rub out any smudges in the seats.

ALso, use foaming glass cleaner on the headliner, it doesnt cause it to sag because it is nice and light and just wipe it down quickly with a microfiber.

 

I use the Meguires quick interior detail as well LOL yours just looked better for some reason.

Thats what i tell people, if you keep up on cleaning your interior, its easy as pie to KEEP clean. Simple as a wipe down and your done.


I would recommend zaino for yours seats BTW. You will love the smell and it makes them very soft and supple.

 

ooo lots of holograms...


make sure your alcohol is new and hasn't been sitting out exposed to the air. last thing you need is to be rubbing oxidized ipa on your car (also knows as acetone...) had a friend that did this cause of someone he read on another forum. coupe months later he was like wtf???!!! then i gave him an organic chemistry lesson. (see kids science is fun)

but yes it's def a lower % than the normal 70. 35% is about right. (50/50) just make sure you're ready to spray off with water after you clean the spot.

 

Great work

 

IPA stands for Isopropyl Alcohol, as in the one you would find in the first aid section of the store, not to be confused with Acetone rubbing alcohol.

 

please tell me you dont use that video to compare anything to...I can go out and take video of my friends truck we just did a optimum compound via PC as a one step (lease turn in so no final polish was done/needed)and show it looking glossy/clear while its been a week sitting outside by the beach getting filthy.

that video has NO real sun shots in it! take some pics close up, not a video from 5 feet away in cloudy conditions...the first two slide show shots are pretty good, but hard to imagine just a one step polish/no compounding! But then again, the infinity paint is stupid soft!

I just dont feel video is a good representation for this line of work as it doesnt capture defects like a still camera does....make a slide show, it will impress much more!!!

 

black cars are a pain in the a$$

 

True, whenever I take videos I make sure it is in the full sun if at all possible.
