I really like the picture. The one on the left is mine, and I took the picture after I finished detailing the black one.

I use Pinnacle and Sonus products. I do the swirl removal and polishing with a 7424, and apply sealant and wax by hand.

In case you don't know what a 7424 is, it's this:

thats really nice. BUT, im not wasting a day that i have off from work to do that to the car, then have to park it outside since i stay out late.....thats is a no no for me. maybe i should try it one of these days to see how fun it really is?

I actually enjoy detailing my car. Sure, it won't stay all nice and shiney forever if it's driven, but it's better than collecting dust in the garage. I take satisfaction in seeing my car clean, and am willing to devote the time and sweat to keep her that way.

She's 13-years-old and still has the "new-car" smell.

That RX-7 looks great. What process did you use on it?

Alot! (over 100K)

^ oh, OK.

RX-7 Steve · #13 07-31-2006, 11:18 AM

^Yeah, I like to drive her. I originally intended on purchasing a low-milage R1 or R2 as a collector's-peice, but I decided that I would rather enjoy the car myself than spend the money on it and save it for someone else.

G-man422 · #14 07-31-2006, 11:22 AM

Thats understandable. I just wasnt sure if you were seriouse about it still having the "new car" smell or not. lol

RX-7 Steve · #15 07-31-2006, 11:23 AM

^Yeah, it really does still have the new car smell. No shit! She's got some miles on her, but she's very well-preserved.
