Protection Detail - Nissan 370Z

[RussZS]

So for so many write ups - busy times!

Today saw me decontaminate and protect a stunning 11 plate Nissan 370Z

Few befores:

As ever, wheels, arches and tyres first with G101 and various brushes, followed by DG901 snow foam:

The car was then rinsed, washed with Optimum Car shampoo then treated with Wolf's Decon Gel, which I wasn't expecting much from. However...

The car was literally covered in fallout! This was left to work for 30 mins, then rinsed off, followed by Tardis, then a quick claying (although it didn't lift much after Decon and Tardis)

Next, the paintworks thickness was assessed, as some deeper RDS's needed removing:

Now, unfortunately, the correction pics were blurry, due to me using the wrong setting on my camera - not a mistake I'll make again. I corrected the deeper RDS's with Scholl S17 and a white Spider Sandwich Pad, then refined the entire car with Dodo Juice Lime Prime and a Megs Polishing pad, via 3M Rotary.

I topped the paint with a layer of Menzerna's Powerlock Sealant.

The tyres were treated with Pinnacle Black Onyx, Swissvax Autobahn was used on the wheels and Dodo Clearly Menthol on the glass.

Some afters:

[porsche_gregory]

Great job as always mate !!

 

[GrumpyTwig]

Drove one a week or so ago, fast but not £35k fast and I didn't fit in it
Nice but you might as well get a 350 imo and save yourself a lot of money.

Russ could you PM me your details and roughly how much that would cost (same car) I might get you a customer

That's a lot of fallout on a new car! Although my 197 has more - lots more!:thumbdown:

I really dislike the front lights / indicator section and the wheels if i'm honest - I prefer the 350Z.

Very nice indeed, very good results there too! Like the 370 but prefer the 350 it think at heart!
