Gave the car a nice wash and a rather lazy wax (Eagle One's Wax As-U-Dry ) this past weekend, then went snap-happy. Enjoy! There are more pix to come...

 

 

That's it for now... hope you guys like them

 

Nice...... clean clean clean....

mines soo dirty i am scared to touch it, but too lazy to wash it~ and busy~

 

Thanks! But I think I can use some lessons on taking more creative shots.

What colour is yours? One thing nice about the Graphite Pearl is that dirt doesn't show up as obviously as they would on white or black cars I took a picture the week before when it was very dirty, it's hard to tell it's dirty at all... maybe I'll post that shot up later for comparison.

 

Same color as your bro........i haven't clean the car for a while, but, it's still ok.....

 

Really? You drive a GP (CG) as well??? I swear, the only other GP I ever see in Greater Van area is driven by a mid-age Asian lady in the city of Van itself... never seen another local GP beside BEFORE buying my own!

Where do you hang out?


no one else has comment on my clean ride and pix? Feeling neglected

 

Ya..... where did everyone go??

hahhaa..... I just hang around RC (Richmond Center) now, since i sometimes work there. I remember there's another CG @ Parker all the time, and i saw one with an asian guy with 2 girls in it, and i thought it was you back then.......when you were on the other board ..haha

 

mine can get pretty dirty pretty quick. i park mine outside on my driveway, so that doesnt really help.

as i'm writing to you right now, the car has water marks everywhere...

 

Looks good my man! You gonna make it down to HIN in Seattle this Saturday?

 

Thanks man!

Can't come down this Sat, got plans already... besides, my ride will be all dirty if I run it down I5

 

Ouch... parking outside definitely doesn't help. I keep mine in the garage every night. Even if I hop back home for a short period, I insist on parking it in the garage for there are juice-dripping trees and shit-dropping birds out in front of our house

 

I work in Richmond (out by No.6, across way from Automall) but only make my way over to RC or Parker on the weekends (when Mrs. wants to shop there)... clearly I don't hang around the shopping malls in Richmond enough to spot all the other GP/CG in the area!

By the way, our local Honda Finance office has recently moved to the same business "parkway" as my office... loads of TSX parked there daily

 

wondering what use to shine the exhuast tips? great job btw!! hopefully ill get my car back next week its in the shop rite now.

 

Good color choice. It looks so good. especially in the shade.
You should be able to keep your car as shiny as it was during delivery as long as you keep a good coat of a polymer based wax on it.
Try meguirs NXT tech wax.

 

Why, thank you for the compliments and , but I didn't use anything special to clean/shine the exhaust tips... I just use the same car wash solution and scrab them with my "underside" sponge (yup, I use two sponges - one for main car body, one for underside/lower parts) Guess they still look that shiny because they haven't been too dirty/darkened to begin with

 

Thanks

I love Meguiar's wax... I have used their Gold Class on other my cars before and still have it stocked up. Is the new stuff NXT better?

For the wash this time around, like I said in post #1, I went the lazy route and used Eagle One's Wax As-U-Dry. First time using that and the result is pretty good (to my not so picky standards anyway). Anyone else has experience with it? (sorry, probably better suited for the "Wash..." section )
