Detailing 0F A 1996 850R


Recommended Posts

Yesterday I did a complete detailing of my brothers(UTAHGTBRICK) 96 850R.

I used (in this order)....

surf city garage- barrier reef wash and wax

surf city garage- nano seal

surf city garage- barrier reef carnauba wax paste

surf city garage- glaze

Meguiars- Chrome Wheel cleaner(exhaust tip)

This whole process took me about 4 hours

Yeah take a closer look at your work dude. The " cool reflection shot check the part thays reflecting off the flourecent lights you can clearly see scratches and stuff. Some wax and low light situations can make any wax job look super shiney. Try actually buffing next time you do a " complete detail" did you even use an extractor on the carpets? Or just spray some stuff on and vacuum it off. But i am straying from the main purpose of my comment . Take some hard angle shots in direct bright light billy mayes. Then you actually deserve some props if it looks good then.

That looks great. Looking at the hood shot, though, looks a bit hazy. Has that part been repainted? Looks like that part could use a nice machine polish.

I'm thinking that's just the single stage, doesn't quite get as glossy as a 2 stage paint job. I don't doubt at least the hood has been painted though :lol:
