Nice details, I really like the pics. I'm curious about product selection, you just about used a different product for every car. I never seen that before. You say your new to detailing but you have some kind of product selection, did you just buy 100's of dollars worth of stuff and jump in or what? Did you buy it all from one place?

You have a hard time picking favorites huh, lol? I have to admit I like using different things from time to time but you take it to extremes man. Well you used Wolf's clay twice and AIO twice so you must really like those. I never tried Wolf polyclay, how is that stuff? You left your location blank, look like your down there in FL? Love the Palm tree reflections. BTW, I've seen much worse orange peel than that infiniti, it looks great, especially the hood.:xyxthumbs

Nothings wrong with having a great selection to learn with. I wish I was so lucky when I was first starting. All I had was Meguiars and Mother's cleaner waxs. :( :p
 
Awesome work!! Love the reflection on the black Lexus. I love those rims too!

Let me throw out a bit of constructive criticism. I immediately noticed the wheel wells on the Lexus. Don't forget to clean and dress them suckers!! I never really considered my wheel wells until I became an Autopian. It completes an exterior detail and now I notice them everywhere! ;)
 
Badass G35 :up One thing you/or you buddy need to do.. Dump a Greddy TT in there. :bow Yup, I seen one in my area, it looks like a total sleeper.
 
thanx all for the constructive criticism. believe it or not u guys are not the first to point out the wheel wells so looks like im gonna have more work to do.



Basically around xmas time i asked all different people for all different products and what do u know. I happen to love Klasse AIO + UPP on black. The G35 doesnt get taken care of nearly as well or sit in a garage like the lexus, so it seemed more fitting to use a sealant a bit stronger than the water based UPP. White i happen to love the pinnacle products, i recently did that M3 with EX-P sealant and the look was identical. and my car...souveran + red just kinda fits. I make product selection to an extent on the cars color as well as how it gets taken care of



Yes i am in southflorida and the rims on the lexus are Zenetti's (dont know which ones)
 
AJ...great job on the details.



When were the pictures taken of the White M3? I swear I saw something last week about his wheels being stolen on m3forum?...the car has nitrous and 2 tone white/ black interior correct?
