Just wanted to thank Dave for the detailing write-up way back in 06. As someone who has always just used a bucket and sponge …Well lets just say I can still smell them burning outside!! :)

 

 

Little over 4 hours spent on detailing her today but im sure with practice I will get that down. Still worth every minute and very satisfying. When I bought the car just a week ago I thought she was clean, nope, NOW shes glass smooth and super clean.

 

Added a pic of my old Supra, my 1st jap car a little over 6 years ago. Bought and waited till I was 25 just to get the insurance - upgraded from a 1.4l 206 to the twin Supra, fun times - Missed but never forgotten :D

Ha, yes im sure once I get a nice set of rims on her, I can add a good few hours on for jacking her up, removing every wheel, OCDing over every little detail :)

 

I have a huge list of mods I want, but im so impatient I want them now! Haha I’ve taken on more work to add to the "mod fund", anyone need any work doing :lol:

 

12 hours - Wow that is crazy! Bet you don't do that every 3 months :blink:

 

Ewan - I followed the detailing post on here to the letter. Bought all suggested items which Dave put up. Products I bought were:

 

Meguiars Gold Class Car Wash Shampoo and Conditioner

Meguiars Quik Interior Detailing Spray

Meguiars Quik Clay Detailing Kit

Meguiars Deep Crystal System Step 1 Cleaner, 2 Polish, 3 Wax

Auto Finesse Crystal Glass Cleaner

 

Plus all the extra bits, mit, cloths, sponges etc.

 

I guess only advice is just to really set aside the time to carefully do a panel at a time mate, It does get real tedious, but when the results come through its worth every bit or work.

 

Still thx to CS I have a few things to keep me busy ^^ :) If you read this filter arrived today - thanking you :)
