well helping again with some cars Nick is doing for Philly international auto show, this 2 gona be in tuner section and are returning customers (well supra is).
did not do much on STI(only trunk) since i have school and work
sunday we just did simple wash of STI and its in pretty bad condition. supra was detailed by Nick couple month ago so its just needs to be refinished (so we thought, boy were we are wrong, aperently some parts of car was repainted and "buffed with rotary" by "pros" at body shop)

50/50 shots is of panels that i did. didnt had time to take pics of panels Nick did but ill post them later when he posts his pics

Supra

well as far as i know, rear of the car was repainted since last detail 6-8 month ago, it still in bad condition even though owner is realy picky how everything looks. just doesnt know how to take car of paint part of it.

we used following
p21 TAW
p21 WC
Diablo
megs WB 4:1
menz 203 on yellow and orange pads
p21 paintwork cleanser
BFWD on black pad
adams undercariage dressing
poor boys wheel selant
CG CW with LC sponge

im sure other stuff that i cant think of right now

wheels
cleaned with p21s wheel cleaner, that took off dirt and brake dust but left what i think is tar or something
decided to try megs WB and holly crap it works great. sprayed on and immediately agitated it and it took specs right off, rinsed with good amount of water.

nice job on that rim! and well. cant wait for after pics. someone didnt take good care of the paint.
 
Hey what is Megs WB? Cuz i have those same spots on my inner wheels and im never able to get them out
 
^^ that stuff is best i ever found. could be bad if you let it sit on wheels since i think its very acidic.
but i applied it and agitated it right away and rinsed it right off. in my case you didnt even need to let it sit. we tried claying it as well with no results
 
Wow i have never heard of that stuff! Its like a miracle for me to see this today because the harsh salts from the snowy roads has really built up some nasty gunk in my wheels. Does this stuff need to be agitated pretty hard to get the results like he did on the supra?

ALSO- say you have painted calipers, will this ruin the paint on them

i had swissvax wheel brush and agitated it. nothing realy hard, you dont have to scrub the hell out of it. i guess just like if you would paint something i dont know

i would not use this on painted calipers if they are not clear coated. if i did use it, it would be spray, agitate for couple secs and rinse off.

you can dilute it so its not as strong.
