Love that Klasse AIOx2 SGx2 Megs#16 x2 original base applied
6/14/04 2nd coat of #16 applied 8/15/04 I am very happy with Klasse longevity w/washing a minimum of 3 times a week.
The #16 last at least 8 weeks also..

Winterize?? We only have to winterize the pool! :D

I assume the light spots are just camera oddites......not flaws, right?!

Yesterday it was so windy that we wouod've been washing our neighbor's car if we'd turned on the hose! Gusts up to 60 mph! Today's much calmer, but the car will be neglected.....too much to do to prepare for Turkey day!!:(

I am impressed with that stuff you use!:)

One of the beautiful Honda orange peel.. :thumbsdow

It's something we all deal with anymore.... 99.8% of the cars on the road today have it........ :yes:

[princess]

Yeah....I remember the old days of teasing others about their orange peel while ours didn't have it..... but now..... :rant: at least with enough coats it does gets less & less noticable!!!

So that's where you were! Out making her all shiny! :thmsup: I wish we had more intersting places to take pictures after the cars all done. I don't want to reflect the neighbor's icky cars..... :dunno: If I take it somewhere, then she's buggifed by the time I get there......

orangepeel, gotta love it.

and it gets worse with a repaint!! :headbash:

but nice shine outside of that, as usual!! :notworthy

Spent about an Hour this afternoon doing the top half of the engine and engine bay... now to make the time to put her up on stands and do the underside and undercarriage.... well for 101K I can't complain :thmsup:

[princess]

Do you also rinse it off in there when you wash??? I do, then just dry.... I haven't "treated" it with anything yet..... been thinking about it though.

[Inspector1]

Well finally put the PC to the fresh paint on the hood :yes:

Polished with Menzerna Final polish and topped with ....................

Your car looks brand new. I think I prefer the appearance of the 2002 V6 engine compartment to my 2005 V6. I will take some high res photos of my engine compartment next week.
