    My first S&S in a long while... gotta see if i can remember how to do this
    :support:


    Wheels/Tires/Wells:

    Wheels rinsed off then treated with Wheel-Brite, after soaking for 30 secs agitated face with a grout sponge and the inner wheel with an EZ brush, nuts got a "nut brush":giggle: After final rinse QD to ensure clean.

    Tires and wells were rinsed off then treated with Grime Reaper and agitated with blach shmitt after rinsing and drying wells got Adams UC and tires got Meg's HD 1:1

    Wash/Clay:
    Rinsed the vehicle the pre-treated front end, windshield and mirrors with Awesome APC. Foamed with CWC/ Meg's HW combo. After washing, but before drying I Qd'd each panel then clayed with Riccardo.

    Wipe down of door jams with QD as well.

    Interior:

    Removed all the crap! Important step
    Vaccuumed
    APC wipe down with various brushes and 3m scour pad for tough spots
    Leather cleaned with CG leather cleaner+ and meg's interior brush
    Dressed with CG new car shine and leather got Rightlook LC
    Vents and various parts got Stoners Trim shine
    Carpets cleaned with Folex/CG Lightening Fast
    CG odor neutralizer

    Paint work:
    Used Meg's D151 via flex and orange lc pad speed 6

    Wasn't going for full correction, but it helped out a little bit... mostly to help clean paint.

    LSP was CG 50/50

    Windows cleaned with Lusso glass polish

    Headlights polished out with Meg's PlastiX and an orange pad

    Great work Dusty! Not quite sure what you should do about that magnet. Maybe use a plastic razor blade?

    Why spend all that on a car and then just lay out a few bucks for floor mats?

    Very nice job.

    To remove the magnet suggest you try warming it up with a heat gun and use fishing line or dental floss to cut through the adhesive. Clean up with 3Ms adhesive remover....

    Let us know how it goes.

    Cheers,

    Awesome work on that Z4 Michael! Yes, a hair dryer and some fishing line will do the job! Then some 3M Adhesive Remover and you're GOLDEN!
