optimun no rinse wash
clay magic bar and liquid glide thingy
optimum car wax.

very basic cleaning and wax, but took me a good 1.5 hours.

here were the results.








tried to get a good reflection shot


heres a better one!

whatya think?

 

that's clean

 

cuz im bored, heres my old car..







i've only had the 2007 tC for about a month now, and i've already put 2000 miles on it =(

ima start taking the bus, damnit

 

I like the reflectiveness of the last pic. mirror like. I have been wanting to do something like this for a while. I got swirls all over my ride. I am currently researching on how to detail cars, clay, polish, wax.

Have you ever used mother's clay bar on your ride?

overall, the ride looks exceptionally clean.

 

it's ok, in my first month i had 5,000 on it. now it's been close to 2 years and it's got 41,000. i know it's a lot for two years, but i'm trying to cut back

 

looks good! its so hard to tell how clean a white car really is :-(

 

Sweet! Squeaky clean
Probably needed a little more sunshine to show of the whitehotness.

I love gen6 celicas! I really wanted one but ended up getting the TC. I was completely sold on the pearl white of the rs3. haha.

 

pretty nice OCW is good stuff from what I hear. You should top that with a carnauba! Maybe Natty's Blue or something

 

dont worry about mileage.. im way ahead of ya.. 13 months 41,000 miles.. 3,000 a month.. hahaha.. car looks clean

 

thanks for the replies guys.

as for the mother's clay bar thingy..

Most of the clay bars now available are made by Clay Magic since they hold the original patent and sued the crap out of anyone who copied their clay-so really, the brand doesn't matter much.

I used Clay Magic myself. Anyone who hasn't clayed their car needs to. My car is still pretty new, and it did wonders to improve it. Lotta contaminents in shipment, sitting at dealer, etc.

all u need is a drop


very nice makes me happy that i had to wait 2 weeks to get mine in white

 

wow, claying rides does make a dramatic difference. am sure mine will be the same too.
thanks for the links TeeCizzle.

 

we did this to my friends/roommates 94 mustang convertible.. and it made a huge difference.. the car was left out side and never taken care of.. when we were done with it.. it looked like the factory paint job again..

BEFORE...






AFTER...





took us about 3 days.. we did this for a car show.. and did 3 other vehicles in this time frame
