Reflections Detailing: Supra TT

It has been a while since I posted a click and brag. At the customers request I am doing this more for him.

I was contacted by a forum member with a 1995 Toyota supra TT that was in need of a paint correction, engine detail, and minor interior cleaning. He drove it up and left this beauty for me to work it over and make it shine. The paint is about a year old and was very well done. The paint contained some swirls and minor halos. The wheels where a chore as they were uncoated and would spot out.

After some testing it was decided:
105/yellow 2.0 megs
106FA/black 2.0 megs
UF/blue uf pad
IPA after each corrective measure
Final wash with Citrus wash and Clear allowing it to dwell??removed all remaining oils.
1000P 3x
Wheels cleaned with flitz
Wheels sealed with 1000p
ONR interior wipe down
Sprayway for windows
P21s TAW for engine cleaning
Engine dressed
Remove wheels and P21s wheel gel
P21s TAW for wells and calipers
Ultima Tire and Trim
Leatherique Pristine Clean for dye transfers on leather


Here are some befores:

One thing I was told by the owner is that Supras design hold tons of water in the seals around the back and window, he was correct a lot of water had to be blown out.

While I think the images turned out okay, in person several neighbors stopped by and just stared at the car. The car glowed the gloss jumped way up.

Incredible job on the red paint Greg!!! Looks WET!!!:notworthy:

Those cars are extremely FAST!

I was in my TransAm one night cruisin' on the interstate around 65 mph when one of these TT's pulled beside me and wanted to "play".. I'm thinkin'... "That's a little Japenese 6-banger and I've got 350 cubic inches of American Muscle....hmmmm..."

I never saw a car accelerate so fast in my life.

I punched it and, by the time I hit 100, the tail lights on the TT looked like tiny red dots in a sea of black night! Ferrocious acceleration.:out::D
 
This car sounds Feerrocious, I just got to pull it in and out of the garage. The owner was to take me for a ride, but a pending storm was coming:(

The paint just glows in the sun, the client was very pleased.

thanks for the kudos there Bill!

cheers,
GREG
 
Awesome finish on the Supra Greg! I do remember one past me on a Highway in Saudi Arabia in 94. I was going about 80 and I think it was going about 140!:thumbup:
