Ill try to get more pictures up.



I used Eagle one Car wash, Clay Majic Claybar, Eagle one again, then I used a Polish by Turtle Wax(I know I know...I cant find anything else around here), followed by Meguairs Color X then Meguairs Glaze #7 then Meguairs NXT.



I did all this yesterday and finally today I got some okay pictures.:bounce

Thanks guys, Yeah I had always noticed that you(redcar guy) would host your pictures from here, so one day I found the autotopia website, but I never seen the forum. Then I d/led the book and found the link to the forum. BTW I love your work and your car!



I need to find a place to host some pictures. Everytime I try to put a picture on here it says its too big. :(

What kind of shop do you have?
 
nice job! i really like that reflection shot of the buildings!



it's suggested to put on a second coat of NXT 12 hours (or at least 1 hour) after the first.



what did you use for your interior and tires?



and photobucket has free (for now) photo hosting. i forgot who mentioned it, maybe GSRstillez? and do you have Photoshop or Photoshop Element to resize the image? if not, i think Photobucket resizes them if they are 250K.
 
Wheels, and wheel wells I used Turtle Wax Tire cleaner, and then used some brushes to clean the wheels and wells, and then coated them in armour all rubber protectant then wiped them down with some towels.



Ive resized the pictures already, and now the pictures dont do the job justice. The car is 100X Darker and Richer in person. Damned camera.



I found my ISP lets me have 25mb of storage space. So Im using it.





BTW Just incase anyone was wondering. Its a V6 3.8 with Nitrous Intake Headers Full Exhaust and puts down 332RWHP and 419FT LBS. Yes those are wheel covers. I have some wheels however the previous owner put some Simple Green on them and ruined 2 of the wheels surfaces. :(



Oh and the car 1997, only has 52K miles on the clock. We bought it brand new.





On the interior, I used my fathers Sears Vaccum(works wonders) along with a hard bristled brush and tons of water, and tuff stuff. Then I hosed the car down in Fabreez. I love the smell of that stuff. I also used Meguairs Lotion(I forget what its called Its milky white) throughout the interior.
