Well today was an awesome day, temperature was perfect, so why not call couple friends over and do some car cleaning. Well when they came i slacked and got no work done. Couple hours later i got my **** together and its time to restore my 2006 G35 Coupe that spend most of its life in Florida, Miami Beach.

Only have 4 pictures for now but i will update this as it goes.

 

wow, that paint looks really neglected. good job so far though! i too have an 06 OB coupe. it's a pain sometimes, but it's so worth it.

good luck. post more progress pics.

 

Seems like this car spend most of its time at dealer free car washes after each oil change lol.

Here are some more pictures from today, tomorrow i will retake the after of the 2 pictures by the quarter panel and by the gas lid





Holy **** its a mirror

 

when you get the chance, can you post up what you used to restore the paint? I have an OB coupe and the paint was neglected as well from the previous owner. Thanks.

 

Skip the dealer washes, they do more harm than good. You don't want all that hard work to go to waste now that she shines.

Great job btw!

 

I used a buffer
CCS Lake Country Yellow and Orange 6.5 pad for cutting
Meguiares Ultimate Compound (i would of used m105 for extra cut but it hasn't been delivered in time)
M205 from the Meguiares Mirror Glaze Line
CCS Lake Country White Polishing Pad 6.5
Meguiares Gold Class Carnuba Wax


Oh i never go to dealer washes, but seems like the previous owners loved them lol. And Thanks!

 

Thanks!! Quick question though, you used the yellow and orange pad for the compound and the white pad for the m205 and carnuba wax?

 

Black is so sexy after a compound & glaze

Good job bro.

 

Everything is correct, but i applied wax by hand with applicator pad.

Thank You! Too bad it rained today

 

Damn.

 

what buffer did you use?
