Please leave me some feedback about what yall think. Im 16 years old and I'm still learning. Thanks.



I did not take any befores. This was one I did recently. Just my addition to the community.



The car wasn't terribly a mess to begin with, just had a lot of tar on the lower panels. It is full of rids, but he is not wanting a full 3-4 step yet, although those are my specialty. He is going to have me do a AIO on it in a month, and was very happy with the results. The 525 is next.:)



Wash: ONR

Glass: Megs GC 8:1. I RainX'd all the glass before washing also.

Tires: Megs Hot Shine

Wheels: Polished with Megs Chrome Polish



Exhaust tips: These were awful. I couldn't get them 100%. I used #1000 steel wool and Meguairs Chrome Polish.

You live at the base of the Rocky Mountains - with all the recreational and visual goodness they hold - and some pics of a certainly nice, yet nearly-cookie cutter, tract home neighborhood makes you miss DFW?:think:



I've been to the DFW metro many times (sister lives there), and I just spent a week a handful of miles from you up in Woodland Park, CO. I wholeheartedly have no idea what you're talking about with this whole "miss" thing.:)
 
I dont know where you went in DFW, but Keller is a very nice city, well, at least on the east side of Rufe Snow, the west side, or the Kroger side, is what some call the ghetto. haha
 
Did an excellent job, only thing i noticed was the inside of the wheels, Paint looks outstanding and tips look good to! keep up the good work!

Co is nice but I am not a hiker camper outdoorsman, I like nightlife and other big city things, which colorado springs certainly does not have. Besides I miss all my friends too.



but anyways not to take this thread further off topic...



I think the tips are going to be as good as they can get w/o busting out the sandpaper and going that route



maybe try metal polish and steel wol instead of chrome.

Thanks!



We did a full walk around before tackling it. He said not to do the inside of the wheels. I let him know that I can take them off and clean them and apply sealant. He was not interested in this right now. He is going to have me do an AIO in a few weeks, and then have the car done up in the end of November with a full wheel cleaning/polishing/sealant, engine bay, and a 1 step and 845.

What would be recommended for a metal polish. I have Megs Mag and Aluminum. I want to try some higher end products for metal if they produce better results.



Thanks.
