This is my brothers 1995 Infiniti J30t. It is his baby. Since the day he got the car it has been pampered as much as otc products can provide. We as of late we have seen the light and are now using profesional/hobbyist grade products. My brother frequently washes and waxes the car so the finish was in pretty good shape with light to moderate swirling. It has 170,000 miles and is 11 years old but after this detail the finish looked new. Proper maintenance provided him a good starting surface to work with. I only helped with the last step of natty's blue, other than that this is all his work.

Here is the process he followed:



1. Wash with pb's super slick and suds

2. Polish with pb's ssr 2.5 by pc spread at 3 work in at 5

3. Sealed with pb's ex by pc at 3, let cure for 18hrs

4. Topped with Natty's Blue by pc at speed 3.5



The Natty's really made it pop, here are the results:

For a car of it's "experience" it really looks beautiful. My brother said he wouldn't mind keeping this car forever and if he continues his current regimine the finish will certainly last that long. This is his car's first appearance on autopia!
 
Nice car however I was never a fan of that color. You however made it look pretty good. Keep up the good work.
 
I have always been in love with those cars, I still remember my neighbours dark green one, just beautiful. Great work and hang on to that car forever!
 
Thanks for the complements guys. My brother and i are just getting into abrasive polishing so these results were our best to date. If my brother had anything to say about it, he would keep this car forever.
 
If you look in picture two the wells are clean. We didn't get a chance to acp the rear wheel wells only the fronts because they're plastic. Pictures bring out every short coming, GRRRRRRRRRR!
 
Looks really good for such a light color. I bet your brother is glad his J30 doesn't have those truly evil BBS style rims some of the J's came with. ;)
 
Scottwax - yes he is! I don't believe that his came with those because it is a t. However as you can see he still needed to buy some chromies. Those pics don't even do it justice because even in sun light there is nothing but flake pop.
