bryansbestwax vs Red GTR
One from last year
This was my first GTR, and it came in red. These cars have been on my hit list for a while and I finally got the opportunity to take one on. The car was in decent shape, (except the wheels) just a lot of marring in the paint from the notorious soft GTR paint.
The Process
Wash
Washed with 2BM with AM Wax and Wax and uber sponge
Wheels got AG CWC (x5) and still didn’t some out perfects, the dust had eaten into the coating, thanks to the brembos
Dried with ww towel
Tires got 3D tire gel
The Engine
The engine was cleaned with AM 777 and left factory clean, no dressing
The Interior
AM 777 and Carpet and Upholstery cleaner
Rigid propak
Aztec Hot Rod
And lots of brushes
Jambs got AM Magic Mist
The Correction
Corrected everything but the bumpers with a PC XP and Menz 203 on a green GI pad
The bumper were done with a green 3 inch gi and Menz 203
Cleaned the surface with aquasol
Lots of cookie monsters
The PC worked a lot slower than using a rotary but I had heard the paint sucked on these so I opted for my new PC
The glass saw Sprayway
The LSP for the day was Worlds Best Wax Collector Series
On to the Photos
The Start (after the wash)
The in process
The finish
I had a few more pics but my computer died at home along with the software to blank out the plates
Total Time
9.5 hours and about 6lbs of sweat

I'm just now noticing the Z8 in the background of the first picture.
