I'm the Rolls Royce King this week! LOL 2 in one week, one old one new!

This thing was a whale! HUGE car. Hard as rocks clear too. Full of swirls and some heavier scratches.


Griots dynamic duo. Foam pads Heavy cut and finish/polish pad.
Aquatek Ceramic Coating
All the other usual suspects

Scott...no power stats, oh yeah, power is "adequate"

It looks like it barely fit, I would've been nervous af closing that Garage door

So you used Griot's Garage pads and polishes on that rock hard paint? How many section passes

That car matches your house & driveway perfectly

Thanks all!!

I use LC pads almost exclusively. Griots FCC and Perfecting Cream.

LOL, I don't know what the power is, it's a V12!!
 
How did you treat the timber rear deck?
 
^^^I didn't. Just wiped it down. It has an area that needs to be refinished, but it's teak and I'm not a boat/wood guy!!! Referred the work to my local wood/boat person.
 
Teak oil is used. To have a RR dealer do it by the book, it's a $2,000 bill. To totally replace the teak $19,000 for the wood kit, installation extra. Looking at one at a reseller recently, it had a inside corner "slat" snapped off on both sides next to where the top irons reside when up. Had a buck tooth look $$$

Probably not something most car guys would encounter. ;)
 
Wow, that is a rare beast, and you got it looking good!

RR cars in general aren't seen very often around me, and I don't know if I've ever seen more than a couple coupe's in my lifetime.

Asking about the RR horsepower is like asking about the price. At that level, neither matter. :)
 
Thanks John, I looked it up, saw that some say to use Teak Oil or some other wood oil, however, 1, I had none on hand, LOL, I don't use anything like that, and this actually looked like it was cleared/varnished/lacquered on top of the wood, so I wasn't about to attempt anything.

I appreciate the info though! (next time!)
