So what did you do to your SHO today!?

[xFallenxCripplex]

Yeah I'd say waxing since the glass isn't covered

Plastic dip or youre going to wax the car and make sure you don't get the plastic white.

I found a Wizards chemical that cleaned up my black trim well and made it look good. Minimal dirt pick up too.

Made a couple of passes with the heavy cut pad/compound today.

Going to run a medium cut pad tomorrow and 2 or 3 polishing pads before adding the ceramic coating.

Also going to use the paint pen to fill some spots

How's the finish looking so far? 4 pads in and just now running polish. 3 pads then the ceramic. I figured what the **** and went all out.

Great reflectivity! Foam pads, right? Did you clean and reuse the pads during each pass?

 

[AmericanPride]

Different pad each pass, hand buffed between applications

(Explisitve) I THOUGHT my four passes buffing (heavy cut, polish, glaze, wax) and 10 hours this weekend washing and making the car look good (inside and out) was a lot of time.

How much do you have into yours by now?

Went to check how dirty my seat filters are... Found out I don't have any might just use some face wipes as filters or some other filter things I have laying around that is less hepa like

Well, this is car is new to me and I'm trying to get the paint as close to perfect as I can before I apply the ceramic coating.

I've got a lot more than 10 in. We'll leave it at that until I finish. Haven't had the time to get the rest done

Seat filters? Like filters for the heated/AC seats?

I had to replace a license plate light holder due to a broken tab. On my way to work this morning I got pulled over for no Tail lights … hmmm. Turns out when I reinstalled the holder and reinstalled the drive bright light (Which doesn't fit very well) I damaged it and kept blowing a fuse. So for any of you who don't know, Fuse 40 under the dash is for the license plate and running lights (10 amp low profile fuse). Learned something today and at least I got off with a warning.

What's with the "White Power," gesture? Some US Marine got fired after doing that on TV in the background.

You should pull back the tab a bit when putting the light in I'm going to be posting a video on it but need time to edit it a bit next month

It wasn't a Marine and he didn't get fired. I sure hope your comment was sarcastic...

It was actually a member of the US Coast Guard. But I agree, what up with the fruit hand sign?

 

[ridered74]

I thought that was the hand sign you trick a buddy into looking at, then if he looks you get to whack him in the nuts. Never was a huge fan of the game myself, but that's what it always was when someone did that.

 

[AmericanPride]

Usually the shoulder. I never initiate the game, but boy do I win. Kid at work said I couldn't get him. I told him "I'll get you damn near everyday". Even got him driving out of the parking lot on his way home.

When there's non stop stress and hustle around the shop, you need some levity here and there.

Mine knew better.

Ugh. Being OCD sucks.

Got ready to run my polishing pads...and I decided to go back and spot treat some more scratches.

Another 2 days now. I be running ALL pads today. Period. Then tomorrow I take my time and apply the ceramic, let it cure until Fri and give it a boost that morning

Took the old sweetheart to the ole' decal shop last Wednesday to get the front window and center caps done. Got her back Thursday night. She looks minty. Next week doors and rear bumper logos real minty

That's what I thought it was forgot it was called the circle game
