My name is Terry.
I am 62 yrs. old / Self Employed / single & live alone-except for my 20 month old female Standard Poodle (No Shedding!), Garbo - who is my most often passenger in the car.
I just purchased a new 2010 Infiniti G37X Coupe- took delivery 7/2/2010. It is the color Infiniti calls "Slate Blue"-> color code K52 <- I would describe it as a "Charcoal Blue"- it looks dark gray in low light , you only see the blue in daylight. It is a metallic paint. The interior is a VERY light Cream/Ivory colored Leather seats (both front & back) with dark Maple wood accents & the same colored carpets (which i plan to cover with custom fitted rubber floor mats).
I do not have a garage, but park under a car port in my back yard- so the car get alot of dust on it while sitting. I plan on buying a gas powered Pressure Washer for washing it.
The car will not be driven alot of miles as I spend most of my driving miles in my Freighliner Work van ( the 2003 Honda Accord Coupe the G37X is replacing only had 44,500 miles on it)
I found this Group (which looks like a GREAT resource) while doing research on the Xzilon Paint Sealant Package offered by my Dealer.
I have been detailing motorcycles & cars since 1962- with more effort put into the motorcycles than the cars.
I have always waxed/Polished a new car twice as soon as I got it- I have not done so yet on my G37X since I am considering the Xzilon Package from the dealer @ $400.
I was scheduled to take the G37X in this morning for the Xzilon treatment- BUT- I am scheduled to have the windows Tinted & a 3M Clear Plastic Bra installed next Monday & when I talked to the folks at Xzilon they said to NOT have the Xzilon applied before the bra as the bra will not adhere to the Xzlion. So I have put the Xzilon off for now.
I am also thinking of having Body Side Moldings installed & I assume the same would apply since they go on with adhesive as well.
I have read many of the postings here & see many products referred to by abbreviations & I hope there is a Glossary somewhere that will tell me what those mean.
I will be posting many questions as I want to make sure I make the correct decisions about protecting the surface of my new G37X.
Thanx to everyone in advance for any help you can give me!
