Well after coming home from the dealership and having some time in the garage to work on it, I started my detail and finished in two weeks. The interior was pretty clean on the car as it only has 20k on it and the dealer just cleaned the carpets. It did get a full wipe down with diluted Megs. APC followed by Vinylx. Seats got Zaino cleaner/conditioner and then Zaino "Leather in a Bottle" The exterior had some swirls and light scratches which were taken care of by Zaino clay, the porter cable, Menzerna SIP & PO85RD, CCS orange and black pads, 3 applications of Z-5, Z-2, with Z-6 wipe down in between each application, topped off with Z-8 Grand Finale Spray. Wheels were cleaned with P21S, Zaino clay, and finished with Zaino AIO and Z-6 wipe down. Tires got APC cleaning and Z-16 "Perfect Tire Gloss". Wheel well got APC cleaning and Adams Undercarriage Spray. Engine also got APC cleaning and CD2 Engine Detailer. Windows got Stoners Invisible Glass and exhaust tips got Einszett metal polish. I think I remembered everything.
Once I finished the detail it was time for some minor mods. S2000 and "H" Emblems removed(before the detail) , Ricks clear side markers installed, Black chrome Honda emblems installed, CR mats, CR shift knob, and CR shift Boot (matching elbow pad from JPM accessories in the mail). Also changed the cabin filter (nasty thing!!!!See pic!!!)
I don't have before pictures cause my camera sucked. I say sucked because I just bought a new Canon G9 yesterday and man is it better! Hope you guys enjoy the pics after a lot of hard work. This was my first time using Menzerna polish products and I was very impressed!! Thanks Phil!
