ScheerSpeed · 07-28-2008, 07:55 PM

well this car was also just purchased 2 or so months prior to this detailing job. it only had a few RIDS here and there from the dealer's "detailing" and some bird poop stains. also i have had a jar of collinite Marque d' Elegance wax around for a while, but never used it... so i gave it a try. and now it it one of my favorite waxes!!!

well, i decided 106 and a green pad should do the trick!

finished interior... it wasn't bad to begin with. the black smudge on the dead pedal was from my shoe, i wiped it up afterwards

FINISHED!!!

Looks great! The pinstripe is gross though, but hey, whatever they like.

I haven't been around this section much recently, but I need to start coming back. Whenever I see posts like these I want to go detail my car.

GreenThree · 07-29-2008, 08:25 AM

Very nicely done! But to the owner: not feeling the scribbles

Turbo_435i · 07-29-2008, 08:11 PM

scheer, wahts a green pad, what brand is it and what is it used for, fine polishing. I respect you man, you look young, and you've done some great work so far as I've seen on here.

remmib · 07-30-2008, 09:37 AM

And now it looks new.

the green pad is more for a 1-step polish. it is abrasive enough to get out some swirls, while leaving a hologram-free finish
