Detail Day

[5.8 Venom]

Did a full detail, strip, clayed, correct (couple scratches from the dealer), glazed, sealed the matte stripes and sealed and waxed the paint.

Holy **** that thing is clean!!! Nice job OP!!! :rockon:

Wow! That looks great, and there is some serious depth on that Ruby Red.
What products did you use?

 

[5.8 Venom]

Thanks, pics really don't do it full justice. I used Chemical Guys stuff, V38 for the correction, Blacklight, Jetseal Matte for the vinyl stripes, Jetseal sealant for the paint and Lava wax. I have 1 scratch the V38 could not get out, so I will have to get some V36, little rougher stuff and try it. Its on the roof line, looks like someone set a coffee up or something on it.

Nicely done. Looks GREAT!

I spent the day doing the same thing, to my wife's BMW. My Shelby and Tacoma are still to be done... (Seeing your wheels reminds me I need to get my tires swapped to the set of Base wheels I bought and get them installed too.)

Are you taking the car to fabulous fords forever on sunday?

 

[5.8 Venom]

No, I had not put that on the calendar, maybe next year.

Thats a great color. I really am going to miss my torch red cobra. The depth in the red was incredible on it, your car finished out well. For that one imperfection you couldn't level, did you try a more aggressive pad and higher speed setting? That may do the trick without having to go to a more aggressive compound when it really may not be necessary. Just a friendly tip.

Every time I think I have done a good detailing on my car I see one of these threads and realize I have a LONG way to go.

Car looks amazing OP. :beer:

Yea thanks, I went to an orange pad and pushed it up to 6. It took it down some, but theres still a lot there. I might go back at it and try a little more pressure.

Thanks, figured I would do a full detail before it got too far down the road.

Looks awesome. Base Wheels > PP wheels

 

[5.8 Venom]

Thanks, you know I am happy with these wheels, but honestly I think the PP wheels look good on Ruby Red or any of the darker colors. I don't like the look of the dark PP wheels on the lighter colors.

Awesome job. That is a great looking car!
