Neil, you car is fantastic but man oh man this thing is in another leauge.....

Looks good...

BUT... it's sort of cheating, in that it was professionally done. Don't get me wrong, it looks great, but at least NSXNEXT did all the work himself!!! He didn't have a dealer professionally do something...

Still though, that shine is amazing!

 

Sure, but the end result is what we are talking about Not who put the most effort into it....

anyway, not ragging on anyone just wanted 2nd gen ppl to see that unreal shine.

 

Guess I better hand over my Zainoff plaque.

Looks great, although the camera can be quite deceiving.

I'd love to see a close-up of the car. Not that I doubt the shine.

 

I think if we had the TEFLON coating and a set of spatulas, Scooter & I could have fried up some extra burgers on our hoods at the last Park Ave. MEET.

YEA, that ZAINO stuff really BLOWS......Hardly any reflection HERE at all..................

 

great shines all around

no doubt darker colors give greater clarity and distinction regarding reflections...i'd venture to say if Neil's TL was green/blue, his shine would look just like Dust's

Shawn, u know how deep yer shine looks...absolutely perfect

Dust, incredible look...and on a 1st G too...im very impressed make it a point to come to the next PAA meet and show off that shine

 

im still happy i got to park there in front of everybody i was a greaseman trying to get all the grease off the car, but that's ok

even Adam said "now that's red"...that's a lot coming from him

 

Do you guys think that the Teflon treatment isn't just your typical sales pitch anymore?

And the reason why some of us complain of cheap paint on the 2nd gen could be the lack of this treatment? We misunderstood it as a sales pitch?

 

Yeah but you worked your ass off, Captain Thirty Coats, or however many you're up to, Shawn.

Good exercise though.

 

i would say teflon treatment is b.s.

 

BS?
With all the evidence indicating this is the shine of the century you still doubt the teflon. Just my .02 cents. The guy Rick had it done by the Acura dealership and all he did was put this stuff they gave him on it and thats how this post happened. Apparently you only need to use it around twice a year.

 

So lets get some in bulk quantity, charge $50 a bottle and make a meeaalon dollas

 

That's one hell of a shine for a 1997 CL!!

Looking good Rick!

 

Dude........look at my car......its as shiney as anyone elses car on the board.........AND ITS WHITE!!!!!! I'm with Shawn and Scooter.......Zaino is the shit!!!!

 

100 billion dollars!!!

 

call me whatever u want, but i like the fact that i work hard to get my baby this shiny...i guess i love my car more b/c of the end result...i guess i bond more with my baby

 

can a premose mist be really shiny too? i tried detailing it, i can see some reflection but no where close to what these guys have.

 

mind you the car is 5 years old... so that is preety damn impressive in my book.

 

yes for that fact alone, i couldnt believe an emerald green would look like that.
