    Just a quick clean for my father. The car just hit 100,000 and he wanted it cleaned up. He actually didn't even think to ask me about the engine but I did it for him anyways.

    Anywho...powerwashed it down real quick, used p21s TAW, scrubbed, rinsed with powerwasher, blow dried, then used some Mequiars plastic rejuvinator. I have the whole 1z kit on the way so just used up the rest of the Meguairs. Will be looking forward to seeing how the 1z compares. Did this all within 30 minutes including hooking up the hose and everything.

    I am waiting on more p21s, boars hair brush, and some other goodies to help with the hard to reach areas. This was just a quick job. Its amazing how well the p21s TAW tears away all the grime.

    Your opinions are welcome!
