nice! looks a lot cleaner now. i gotta try some of that zymol wax. all i use is nufinish

 

wash my car next?

 

ah yes, the spare key, always a handy tool to have hanging from the garage wall.

 

Nice. Get a bed, fridge and mircowave in there and you will be all set.

Clean Z man, nice work!

 

clean Z
i wish my z had its own workspace
ive got a pic of a bunch of detailing stuff with my car too...it takes way too much time, but it sure is damn worth it when you drive it around lookin all sparkely. i can post it here if you dont mind.

what are you doing with those intake pipes??

 

Of course you can post it here, I was thinkin about puttin the intake pipes in but I still need to get another one of those blue hoses, I'm being lazy about it. I also gotta put in that chrome fuel rail...

 

Damn I just used Zymol on my ride for the first time and it si really really clean!

Clean ride VoVa I have a 93 NA also I love it but hope to convert in the future!

Any way keep her clean and looking good I know I will!


1993 Nissan 300zx
Stillen Intake
Stillen ZR tip cat backs
120k maintenance to come
and some kind if upgrade any ideas?

 

iminsideurz...do you want that to be in your sig? go to user cp and then to edit signature and put that stuff in there

vova...what size hose do you need? if you need some i can look at what i have left this weekend

 

I finally found that clay that i was looking for.
Yup autozone sells it. Although it's not just the clay bar by itself.
That would be too simple
The Clay Magic Perfect Finish kit is what i got. $10 comes with clay bar and I'm not making this up, "Clay Lube." Mother's had a more expensive kit that came with wax but i have like 4 bottles of wax i haven't even used yet so i didn't need to spend the extra $.
Thought this might be something to add to the detailing collection guys.

 

hehe....you said "lube"....j/k

See, this thread is interesting, but nothing in it applies to my white primer paint job so I'm just whoring up some posts here (almost # 400!)

 

so how do you detail the white primer finish? spray it again?

 

Yea, Rizz, that's the same stuff I have. I don't think you can ever buy the clay bar by itself, at least I've never seen it.

 

I was went out to Murrays that day just to check out the claybard and the cheapest thing I found was like 20$ like the whole kit, i said screw it and I went home

 

ive never used a clay bar before

would it really be worth it along with the three stage wax kit?

 

Not too too much on a darker coloered car. It's a lot of work. It helps out lighter colored cars A LOT!

 

This is the size I need the hose, I couldnt find my measuring tape so I improvised, if it fits around the tennis ball or Z throttle body, I'm good...




Hmmmmmm......Z Fanatic?

 

you mean the coupler?
you missing a coupler for one of the pipes?

 

Yea, I'm missing 2 of them for the bottom.

 

they didn't come with the kit?
that's messed up!
I woulda sent it back pronto!
I think i can order them for you....if you want'em.

 

i believe i have some at home if you dont mind waiting until saturday, i can look for you

they are blue

 

if b300 doens't have it, here's a good site that has em for cheap.

Clay bar is worth the time no question about that and worth the money. The thing is it takes so long to do the whole process that alot of people skip a cleaning step. You have to wash first with water, then soap, scrub, wash, clay bar, then wax. You have to wax after clay bar or its a waste of time. After just using the clay car the surface is so slick anything you put on the car will slide right off. Clay bar removes the layer of dirt over the clear coat, that soap and scrubbing wont take out. You have to wax to put a sheild over the clear coat. The best way to is to use the portor cable 7424, now that sucker will give you a showroom shine. Its worth every penny long process but worth every minute you spent cleaning it. Im gonna shut up now cause i can keep going nothing like a freshly cleaned car. My 2 cents

 

I've always liked Meguiars Gold Class wax and Eagle One's premium wax, although the Eagle One doesn't last as long so lately I've beem using the Meguiars.

What's up with the Zymol? I've heard it's good, but I've never used it. I know BMW recommends it.

 

Well whatever you do guys dont use that Armor-All Wax-It-Dry Gel. I put onto my black 95 z32 and within literally minutes I started the Buffer Machine on the car and It was caked on already I had to pay a detailing company 400 dollars just to get it to look semi-normal but it was caked on so bad my car looked like someone took a wire brush to it when I got it back. The next month I had to get the whole think Sanded,Primered,Sanded,Primered,Painted. So yeah I wrote a note into Armor All saying I spent a total of 3,400 Dollars which was my TT swap money to get my whole car repainted after what their Wax-It-Dry Gel did to my car. I never got a return letter. Just thought I'd let my fellow Z owners what to stay away from.

And Take into mind this was at 6pm at about 70 degrees cool climate.
