Hello friends :howdy

This is the 2nd part of a presale enhancement we carried out on a doctor's ride. Please enjoy as we share.

The initial state

Sporty and nice but so dirty :wall

The other side

it appears so nice in the shade.

We begin with the exhaust pipe.

How dirty is dirty?

LOL!!!!!! Since when did doctors drive ricers? I just dont think I could ever detail a riced out vehicle.

Great job OP! Can you give more info on what you used to polish the metal?

This doesn't look to be in the US. In many other countries, only the top 5% of the population even own a car.

Thanks for your encouragement Roshan! :bigups

You are right... we are in Mauritius, plenty of sun, sand, sea and swirls..... :inspector:

Actually i used a "no-name" paste wax that was available locally. don't have a polish for alloy. so i tried on a small section with a microfiber cloth, thanks God, it worked out so well. I did all the wheels.

cheers

So the car wax polished the exhaust tips? I'm confused as to how that's possible? :help:

The exhaust pipe was cleaned with Bilt Hamber surfex from UK, at a dilution of 1:10 approx.

Used the wax on the wheels.

hth :bigups:bigups

Thanks so much Todd, you've been an inspiration to my detailing journey, starting right from the old TID forum.

Sadly, I wasnt too smart at once and bought one from a friend. From what he did to it, the car lasted less than a year. It was fun to see what people did when they saw it. None the less this car got a much needed cleaning. Very impressive.

See, I too was a ricer once. So I like to laugh a little bit at cars that remind me of my past. I loved this car, until the suspension gave out after dropping some puppies we found off at the ASPSA. I donated it to a charity.
