Hey everyone. It's been a while since I've posted. I have had to take a little break due to cutting my left middle fingertip off with a table saw. Now that is healing nicely, my Orthopedic Dr. gave me the green light to start using it to toughen up the skin. So what better way than detailing my new 2012 370z in Black Cherry Metallic.

Gave the outside a full detail yesterday to bring in the New Year.

Products Used:

- Dawn
- LA's Degreaser for wheel fenders
- GG Wheel Cleaner
- GG Rubber Cleaner
- Megs Tire Dressing
- Iron X
- HD Speed
- CG Butter Wax "2 Coats"
- 1500 wet sandpaper for those really bad scratches.

HD Speed and the CG Wax really brought the depth of the paint back to life. Now it looks more Black.

Enjoy the pics and Happy New Year!!







 
Needs spacers! and exhaust, intake, tint.

JK...how wonderful forums can be..

Nice car, fast too! I used to have a G35 with the VQ DE engine.
 
Very nice! Glad that finger is healing up well and you can detail again!

Agreed on the exhaust and intake :)

This is my 3rd Z :) Traded in my 2003 350z .... Told my wife I was going to just "look" 😉
 
You've got good taste in vehicles. I've always liked those cars. That's the kind of vehicle one actually wants to purchase.
 
gorgeous car! Love the 370Z!

Love the addition of the Fairlady badge. Is it auto or stick?
 
Beautiful car! I had a red 2003 350z and loved every minute I had it. Really wish I still had mine, but I don't think my kids would have agreed to ride in the hatch...or maybe they would :-p

Glad the finger is healing up nicely!
 
Welcome to the 370z club. I've got a 2014 Roadster with Nav and Sport package in Red. This is my third 370z. Get some Dr Colorchip and be ready to fix a lot of chips on the front end. Enjoy!

Congrats! Looking good.

Did you follow up the 1500 sanding marks with 3000 and then polish out? What was your method?

Thanks Mike. I did not follow up with 3000. One reason was I didn't have any 3000 laying around. I just took my PC 7424xp, LC MF Pad and HD Speed and they came out with a nice smooth finish.
 
Now that the sun has decided to show its face, I gave her a quick wash with Meg's D111.

 
I love the 350/370z and the old Datsuns. Timeless designs. I wish they would color match and flush mount the door handles. Beautiful car. Congrats
