LanceM Detailed: 2005 Nighthawk Black RSXS Lusso2

Well, just did an exterior detail for my friend. He had already cleaned his interior. Car looked decent just minor swirls and scratches. We used p21s gel on the wheels and that took care of alot of the dirt and dust.

CG CWG
Clay
CG CWG
SIP orange pad
FP Blue pad
High endurance on the wheels (owners)
Lusso Creame black pad
Lusso 2 by hand and applicator

The lusso2 sample I was given was extremely tough to work with. It was very brittle. I initially planned to warm it up and apply by hand, but the piece kept breaking. I then warmed up an applicator pad and that didnt work either. Finally, we put it in boiling water to melt it and let be useable.

The results were good. Nice optics and shine. Thought lusso 1 looked wetter, but 2 had better depth. I personally thought lusso 1 was better, well mainly due to ease of use.

Wow... dude when I saw those first couple of pics l was like:yikes::yikes:

Scary swirls:shakehead:

you brought it back!!!!!!

awesome job

 

lol thanks alot. The marring on eht hood was nasty. He has my old seats in his car.

 

Oooh very nice RSX :druling: :druling:

Thank you for sharing with us and yes the vehicle looked :scared:

 

Sweet ride and those looked nasty, very well done.

 

thanks. the owner is about to install his turbo system should be pushing 400+ to the wheels. Yikes!

 

That's a really nice RSX :druling: great job!

 

i agree on the lusso 2 i could not even melt it the wax was VERY hard

 

Nice job bringing the paint back.

 

Well that makes three of us. The wax was not very user friendly.

 

WOW... that makes four of us...... wait, never mind, I didn't get a sample:

but if i did, I'm sure i would have the same results

 

the wax was a bear to work with. But after melting, it did fine (well until it cooled back off). It was real brittle, pieces were braking off easily.

 

great turn around

did you fully melt your wax or just soften it up?

 

I just warmed it till it looked workable.
