Worked on this GTR today with a friend of mine. It was in pretty decent shape, just the rear end of the car and sides had some bonded contaminates. Nothing Riccardo Blue can't handle though. Rims also got waxed with Collinite 845, I did what I could with them. Also, exhaust is catless so it wasn't the easiest to clean. I only had my P21S Polishing Soap with me, no actual metal polish/steel wool combo so I did what I could with it. I'll let the pictures speak though. Wash: - 2 Bucket Method w/ Grit Guards - Raceglaze Sheepskin Washmitt - Majestic Solutions Ultra Gloss - Zep Citrus Wheels/Tires: - Zep Citrus Degreaser - Raceglaze XL Wheel Brush - Swissvax Wheel Brush - Meguiars Tire Brush - Old Sponge cut in half - Michaels Paint Brush - Gloss-It Signature Tire Gloss - Collinite 845 Exhaust: - P21S Polishing Soap - Blackfire Metal Sealant Claying: - Riccardo Blue - ONR Clay Lube Last Step Protection: - Zaino Z2 - Zaino Clear Seal Windows: - Collinite 845 - Riccardo Blue Befores: Durings Afters Did what I could with P21S Polishing Soap (didn't bring steel wool/aggressive metal polish) Windows Got Collinite 845 Flat black no longer faded Wish I took more after pictures, but thats all I got Thanks for looking!
Brendan, I love you (nohomo) but you have to ditch those shoes. Good work on the car though. Godzilla!
Great work Brendan. Is this an old project or a recent one? I can't believe you are wearing shorts in Canada during this time of the year. I guess we got all your snow here in VA... lol.
Nice work man. Those GTR's are sick sick sick. I am seeing more and more people use that Zep degreaser. I might have to add that to my arsenal just to see how it is.
I couldn't justify $60 to ship 7 or 8 gallons of APC from Majestic Solutions, so I looked for a local solution. Honestly, I find Zep Citrus works better. It's a bit stronger at 3:1 then MS SGS, I've done a test on my sisters jetta, and the Zep side came out brighter and cleaner. You should give it a go! This is from today! :headbang:
old thread i know but what is your dilution ration for the zep citrus degreaser and what have you used it on so far without it damaging?
