    Hello all, Mike here again. The whiteout FR-S you are going to see today is a referral from my first FR-S customer. The car is less than one week old, and the owner instructed the dealer to NOT wash his car. I'm happy to say that it came with very little defects in the paint. It, however, needed a full decontamination process. For those of you wondering how contaminated a new car's paint could really be? Please see the following set of pictures:

    I then foamed the entire car down before washing it via the 2 bucket method:

    The followings are after I've polished the entire car, but before degrease and opti guard:


    See the reflection? Bet you didn't know a white car can reflect objects like a dark color car would!

    Looking good.
    Did you buy the special two sided applicator from Optimum, or what do you use to apply?

    The truck belongs to the customer's dad, and I get the feeling his dad doesn't give a crap lol.
    Customer also owns a lifted and supercharged FJ Cruiser, he takes that off road
