Pics of my ride's shine.
 
My business partner took these for our website the other day. I polished it using Poorboy's SSR#2 then topped that with Poorboy's EX. :cool:

A$$! :rofl:

Nice finish. :tup: Should take some shots with the sun out hitting the paint. that's when you really tell if the finish is clean.

Yes, it was after I spent all night fixing your dealer paint job! :rofl:

bobbyd 06-09-2004 08:45 PM

MeguiarsEM 06-11-2004 12:15 AM

Still too far to notice, but that's cool if you found something you like, use it. :)

bobbyd 06-11-2004 07:15 AM

Thanks.

ImPulse 06-11-2004 07:57 AM

I bet if the light hit it... there would be like millions of streaks, swirl marks/spider webs ALL over the place... But, then again what do I know :_please: :rofl:

bobbyd 06-11-2004 08:01 AM

You are probably right Impulse. I did not use Meguiars, and God knows they are the best of the best. Hell, the stuff I used lasted more than a week and we both know that can not be good wax!

edoprasetyo 06-11-2004 08:03 AM

from now thats how you clean the car
:clap:

Day_Tripper 06-11-2004 08:08 AM

my car has never been remotley that clean... how long does it take to get it like that

Damn... A week? You better take your car back to the dealership... I bet your wax just took your clear coat off and is now waxing the actual paint! :help:

bobbyd 06-11-2004 08:15 AM

Day Tripper: Took me a little while to get the paint that good. The dealer left me with swirls galore. But once you get it that way and take proper care of it it is easy.

Impulse: You could be right! I will make a dealer appointment asap! :P

Samari 06-12-2004 02:42 AM

MeguiarsEM 06-12-2004 09:07 AM

MeguiarsEM 06-12-2004 09:16 AM

Enough with the wax lasting a week. Are you ok? What are you washing your car with, dish detergant? The wax does not last a week your crazy. It's the most durable wax Meguiar's offers. If the wax was garbage don't you think the company would be out of business. Think about it. Did Meguiar's turn you down on a distrubution deal or something. I smell a hater. :cry:

ImPulse 06-12-2004 09:26 AM

Honestly... Meguiars does make a good wax... But, there are simply others out there that are better. I do have to agree on the NXT lasting less than a week. The stuff is good but, it really just doesnt get the "oooo" out of me.
