Re: Castrol Jaguar XJR-9

Let me be the first one to say: absolutely gorgeous build. I'm not a fan of closed back wheels, but I have to admit that in the second picture, it has a really good-looking stance!

Congratulations. You have done a great job!

Regards,
Pedro.

Re: Castrol Jaguar XJR-9

That's about as good as it get's! Hope you doesn't suffer from Future turning yellow over time, but I heard somewhere that there is a new forumla that's supposed to be more resistant to yellowing. Once again, a really eye-pleaser....good as candy!

Thanks everybody, I really do appreciate your compliments. I will try to answer a few of your questions. First I haver never had a problem with Future yellowing. I think that happens if it is apply to thick. I wipe a few very thin coats on then wax. By the way the only wax I have tried that doesn't take the Future off is Zymol, I think this car is from the 88 season, I believe it ran with BBS wheels in later seasons. By the way this kit is fairly cheap, my LHS has it fo $23 US.
