Lol, the wheels wells..I used this cheap Black Magic Tire Spray..I didn't really do a good job on them I know lol. Yeah, I do everything by hand...and no polish or compound for me, I can't find any off the shelf, and I don't know how they work. I just wash, clay, remove any scratches, and then I wax.
Well if you are removing scratches...then that is usally called polishing.
Looks nice... I did that as well on my car, and then it rains today.. =( oh well...

I go thru the usual, wash/claybar/polish-twice/wax-3 coats all by hand...

A full polish is only recomended to do bi yearly or a bit more(or as needed)...not every time as it will sand down through your clear coat.

+1

He should get those touched up.
what a waste......could u have not find a better buy?? evo, sti, mk4 supra etc and they all perform better then that...
The front bumper has a hole, because some needle nose pliers came off a truck when he was driving on the freeway...he heard something, but didn't see it till he got home. The front bumper has A LOT of rock chips and dead bugs, so I didn't really do anything to it except wash the front bumper. It's probably because he never washes his car. Lol. And now he's trying to get '06 Headlights, and a new front bumper. What I use to remove light scratches is ScratchX. Is that a polish? I don't think so....but I derno. But yeaah, I wish I could pull dents, fill in rock chips, etc. But I don't have the supplies for it. I just tried my best in making his Z look brand new. I just used car wash, clay bar, ScratchX, and Gold Class Liquid Wax.

Something tells me you don't like the 350Z, or perhaps even the G35.
ugh travisae86 sounds liek a douche...DETAILING this car has NOTHING to do with how it performs...

anyways you did a good job on the car. How did u get customers? put up ad's ?

scratch x is a polish. Paste wax is usually a better choice in waxes rather than liquid...just try different products and see what works for you. YOu can still do stellar jobs by hand just takes more effort.

Thanks man. I didn't make any ads yet, this Z belongs to my cousin. I just go around the neighborhood asking people if they want a detail. Yesterday I scored $50 for detailing the exterior of a MBZ E 240. Not bad. And today I might detail my friend's 86 and do some color restoring, and over the weekend, I might do my cousin's Outback. It's hard to find customers who take you seriously as a detailer at 15 years old.
