<![CDATA[Detailed my car today.]]>NOT my Trans Am!

I put about 5 hours worth of paint time into the car. It's a night and day difference. This thing was swirled and marked to high heaven. I've been into detail my other car for a while, but I must say, this car came out ALOT better than I ever though it would.

I threw in a crappy pic of my 2 cars side by side for good measure. I havn't even dusted off my other one.

EDIT: pics shortly, internet is moving slow.

I also did the intake, and to my suprise, I found the original air filter in it with 72K miles. This is one of the worst looking air filters I have ever seen. It was a night and day difference between this one and the new JMB intake, which sounds awesome. I will have a vid and pics of the intake shortly, my connection is moving slowly.

Tough to beleive by looking at it that it go 13's this summer...:)

EDIT: if you are wondering what I used/did, let me know. I can post it later.

It's designed for paint, but will work on any non poreous surfaces (chrome, glass, etc).

I also used a semi course pad with meguires #8 on the wheels. I normally wouldn't do this, but they were in bad shape. I wouldn't use a new pad for this either. They look awesome, it didn't damage them at all. I also used Meguires quick detailer between buffing because it was starting to fast, lol.

If you have any more questions, let me know!

Also, I used a polymer sealant, Zaino, on the wheels. Regular wax will heat up from the brakes, and be gone in a matter of days. Polymers last a LOT longer. Since I can layer Zaino without build up, it is perfect for rims. It makes it 50000 times easier to clean of break dust.

IT's fun for the first half hour, but it's rough riding in it. Plus, it has a horrible sound part throttle.

I do like the sound at WOT. It basicly sounds like the world is coming to an end.
