Got my new stuff coming in, can't wait!

Post by Whelan »

Car will be overhauled with detailing by end of June. I just ordered a few more pads for my G100 DA polisher, some #40 Meg's Plastic/Clad cleaner and polisher, NXT Wax, Waffle Microfiber Dry Towel. Picked up a new fliexible backing plate too for the fun to come. Once again its time to bust out the blue tape and really get this thing shined. I gotta start under the hood, then wheel wells, windows, finally plastic trim, then the headlights/taillights with some G100, 8006 and Plast X treatment. Interior is looking good, just need to shampoo the carpets/seats, and get my Q-tips out for the vents and dials.

It's def. a passion. My next project is taking care of some curb rash I got on one wheel. A little clean off, some bondo work (with the tire still on add you) and I need to find out what color Toyota uses for the wheel paint, you won't notice it was ever damaged. Should look fine!
