1996 Infiniti i30

[sevenrd]

Detailed this 1996 Infiniti i30 today. Over 140k on the ODO and the paint and interior reflected the mileage. This was hard work.



Interior cleaning consisted of a combo of 303 APC, Meg's Quick Out and Pinnacle leather/Vinyl cleaner. Finished up with 303 Protectant.



Exterior:



Clay with Sonus green

OC @ 1200 - 1700 - mulitiple passes on the hood, trunk, and other areas that needed it.

FPII @ 1200

4* UPP

DP tire gel

Armor All wheel wells



Befores

After so many passes of OC I lost count...

Wow that is soo sick! Nice job!



That exact car but a '97 is going to be my practice car when I get my rotary. My bro gave me the OK! Good to see those results on it!



Why did you tape off the trim and such, is that for safety of the rotary? If so, after its taped is it pretty safe from the rotary?



Thanks in advance and great work!! Really great work! I know how hard those clears are.

Thanks!



Yes, I always tape rubber and plastic trim when using the rotary. One little mistake and the rotary will melt the rubber/plastic pretty quickly. Once taped, I'm comfortable working around those areas, but still with caution.

Initially a diluted mix of 303 APC. But eventually a full strength blast of it - with much scrubbing.

Thanks, Andy.



No extractor. After I scrubbed them with 303, I rinsed thoroughly then vac'd with a Ridgid 6HP wet/dry.
