Congratulations on the new ride! That's a sharp looking car. I love how red the red is.

Those TSX's look nice. My sister wants to buy one, I told her she needs to give her big brother her '02 3.2CL Type S and buy her a new TSX. She said....Maybe. unlikely. She already had to put a transmission in it. Drives like a maniac. Just under $5,000 for the tranny, good thing for extended warranties!

Nice car.

i like the second shot, great work so far. looks a nice red. seems strange that #80 wouldnt tackle it, honda paint over here is known to be thinish a very soft, going from posts of civic type r which are common.

I will play with it some more...it could be my technique that is causing the micro marring with M80. The paint does seem very soft so maybe I'm applying too much pressure, over or under buffing...

I did only give it one pass too as it was very late.


Thanks Guys! Coming from a Mazda 6 this thing is a LOT nicer.

Well I didn't have much time to work on it since it was after dark an late by the time I got her home.

Wash - Gold Class
Clay - Smooth Surface Clay Kit
Wax -NXT 2.0

The tops of the car looked good since they had the plastic still on. However, I knew the car had been on the lot for a few months and the sides have some fine/medium scratches in them. Most would not come out with M80 using the FLEX or my PC with only one pass. I also had Micro Marring from the M80 so I swithced to M09. I only tried out a few panels but I may have to step it up to the rotary to remove them all. I will play with it some more when I have more time. I may just live with them for a while too since they really only show under certain lighting (Xenon).

Some pics from eary this moring...sun had just come up and wasn't hitting the car yet so the color isn't the greatest.
