Making a start...

Hi all,

I thought it was high time I made a start with my vehicle, she's a '95 Mitsubishi Pajero (Montero) LWB 2:8TD Exceed, and seeing as we have had a decent dry weekend thought I'd give it a go...

I use Maguiers Deep Crystal Step 1, 2 & 3 Kit and I used an old t-shirt for applying & polishing...

I've only done the Bonnet (hood) so far (I have a slight mobility problem so it takes me a while to do things), although I may not be able to do a full polish on the roof, but will have a go if we get some more nice days (very rare in my part of the world, great if you like rain :) )...

Anyway, here's a couple of picture, first is a before shot...

Also, I have painted up my Summer wheels and got them balanced and fitted yesterday, also painted up the centres as the chrome was looking very tired...

One area that I have always tried to keep clean is the engine bay...

Many thanks for looking, I would appreciate any tips/help etc...

Does it have a sun roof?
I know someone who gets alot of the top by going through the sun roof.

No sweat. Till I saw someone do it, I would have never thought of it myself.

Enjoy the time with your truck. To me, it's my get-a-way time.
 
Looks like you are off to a good start! Turbocharged, huh? As far as tips, you mentioned that you used an old t-shirt. If you can, pick up some microfiber towels to use instead. They will work better for you.
 
:cool: If you ever get to the other side of pond (Memphis,Tn.) look up tha flash. I would certainly entrust my vehicle to your care. Tha truck looks AWESOME. Love that "bonet scoop" and brush gaurd. Oh yea, :welcome: to "THA FAMILY" Look forward to seeing you around. P.S. Definetly pick you up some Micro Fiber towels, you will love'm and they are very inexpensive. :cool: :dcrules
