First off, thie SUV is simply amazing in person. The owner is Nick W, a pioneer of the import scene. He had the very first imported Skyline into the US. While I was working on this car, he told me 2 very cool things: 1) You're GONNA wash my ferarri (355 Berlinetta in a silver/blue color)...

Click for pics As in my thread last week, where I washed and waxed 10 cars at a local shop, this was part 2 of that event. this time a more diverse group of cars (though still majority WRX/STi's). These 9 took me longer than the 10 last week, but I think it's because I have been detailing...

http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=720814 <--- see pics there A fellow NASIOC member thought it would be a good idea to have a wash and wax day in the winter so people could have a clean and waxed car. So we found a local performance shop that let us have it there. This was...

got out of work a little early today, so I took advantage of the weather and took the MR2's summer tires off and cleaned up the motor on the Accord. Before: After: Didn't really have the time to do a full blown detail on it yet, as a friend of mine came over just before I finsihed...

One of my neighbors got a Legacy GT about a month ago, and since he saw my car go from dull red to shiney bling red, he asked me to prep it for the winter for him. Since it was around 50 today, I thought I would do it. Car got wiped down with a Meguiard QC and a Micro Fiber cloth. Paint...

So I just bought this for my car because it was cheaper than buying this one They are both stainless steel, only the second one is polished to a mirror shine. How can I achieve this? DACP using the PC? Thanks! David

I'm having a motor swap done in my car in a shop all the way over in Souderton, PA at the end of January. While the motor is out, I was considering having someone come and detail the engine bay for me (since I'm basically driving there, dropping the car and and flying home the same day and...

This is a member's car from MR2OC.com that just got this car about 3 months ago. His paint was in very good shape to begin with, so it wasn't that difficult of a detail. His car got the signature blue-sun treatment: Dawn Wash Cleaned with a Meguiars Claybar Washed again Paint was...

First was a 2002 Silver WRX Wagon that my buddy ended up trading in (hence the detail) for a new Jetta GLI (sweet cars BTW) It got a Dawn Wash, DACP with PC NXT Tech Wax with a PC Meguiars Hot Shine on the tires And a 1:10 Mix of Simply Green on the engine Here are the pics that I...

Detailed a 93 Towncar yesterday. Woah, what a huge car! My coworkers monther-in-law passed recently and they got this car. She used to drive with her dog, so there was some doghair on the velure. The interior looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a LONG time. I didn't get any pics of it...

I drove up to Ann Arbor, Mi to detail my 2 of my Subaru (via nasioc.com) friends car. One car is a 00/01 4 Door RS with rally decals. The other is a 98 Outback Sport Wagon converted to a full V3 Sti with a freshly rebuilt 2.5 shortblock instead of the standard 2.0 (very fast car!) Both cars...

Click for all the pics So as my other thread stated, yesterday I began a process of deoxidizing the single stage paint on my 93 MR2. I did 2 coats of Meguiars Diamond Cut, three where necesary. A coat of Dual Action Cleaner and Polish topped off by a coat of NXT (2nd coat to come...

I have a 93 MR2 in Red. It's a single stage red and I've tried alot of different combo's to get it to *pop*. At best, the car looks best from no closer than 5-6 feet away. Anything closer and you notice all the imperfections. I've tried all the stuff that I have, AIO (by hand and with a...

Pics and story on nasioc.com thread Like the thread says, Scott (Bwana) and I will be detailing a different show WRX tonight (Hot Imports Night this weekend in Chicago) More pics to come tonight or tomorrow. David

I'm swapping out my MR2's engine lid from my NA on to one of a Turbo tomorrow. There are a few bolts that I have to remove that are painted to match the color of the car. How can I remove them without removing the paint from these bolts? I also ask this because this summer I want to...

Scott (Bwana) and I detailied a 02 Yellow WRX Sedan on Saturday. Unfortunately, we both left our camera's at home so there are no pics. When I got home, I used my new Porter Cable (PC) on my MR2 finally. I used Meguiars DACP followed by Meguiars NXT on it. I got out some of the scratches...
