I decided to do this for a co worker. The pics of the inside dont come close on how dirty it was. I used apc 10:1 4:1 and oxy clena and some stains came out but not all. I spend over 2 hours on the inside alone. The exterior was a cery dull almost primer look red. Needless to say after a coat of VM and then Blue PWC and a coat of Blue Nattys its looking a lot better. I did not touch the engine.

Nice I need to do my sisters honda sometime, but I never get any time... I already am doing my friends maxima and my friends denali with 20's on it. But its supposed to rain Sunday so I probably wont do unless it doesnt look like its gonna rain.

Nice comeback for such light polishes!


Any interior afters?
na I forgot. There were still a bunch of stains but most of the soda came up. It was very nasty. I tried apc 4:1 on most and 10:1 on the interior. I also mixed up some oxy clean about 1.5 scoops in a 24oz bottle. Still did not work that well... Has anyone had problems with that taking the color out of the carpet?

Can anyone suggest something better on the interior. I used some F21 on the interior. I was out of cockpit shine( I dont use it on my, mine stayes natural look) but here needed something on it to make it look better. Would a steamer really do that much better. I hate to get one even the cheap one that been floating around here for like 50.00.. I just dont do this enought.. My car's dont get that bad.

Is there something stronger I can use on the rims other than APC? Would full strenght make that much difference over 4:1?
 
What a transformation. nice job.

A steamer or a hot water extractor gives the oxy clean a boost with the hot water. Plus an extractor has alot of suction. IMO some bad mats just need to be replaced..

I use a scoop of oxy and a dash of APC in a bucket .Soe guys are having great results with a product called Folex and Kids N Pets. Haven't used them yet.

I cant find either around here. Guess I am going to have to buy it on line.
