  • 93 500hp FD RX7

    I just got finished detailing this gem of a ride for a local restaurant owner. This was one of his fun cars to play around with on weekends. He used to do the upkeep himself but with a back injury he has not been able too. In his words this car was neglected because it had some oxidation on the roof and hadnt been waxed for about half a year, otherwise it sits either outside under a car cover, in the restaurant parking lot, or in his garage. Id consider this car just routinely upkept, but nothing fancy, definitely not neglected. Anywho, this is the car prior to cleaning:










    Im not sure how bad the car looks in the pictures, but i definitely wouldnt say neglected.

    I washed it with meguiars #62 wash, cleaned the wells and tires with Megs APC, and cleaned the wheels with Megs #36 (great to wash with BBS approved wheel cleaner on BBS wheels :P.) I then taped her up, went over the body twice with #83 on my g100 (it still had some RIDS, something the G100 couldnt touch.) I then topped the car with #7 and then followed that up with 2 coats of s100 on both wheels and body. Windows cleaned with Stoner, wiped the dash with Megs Quik Interior, wiped the seats with Lexol cleaner then conditioned with Megs leather cleaner/conditioner spray. Sprayed the wells with Megs HD 10:1 and did the tires with that also. Also dressed the under moldings with HD. I also dressed the gaskets with #39.

    After the final waxing in the garage:





    Before delivery and dressings:









    At delivery with owner inspection:


    And just talking with the owner:


    Thanks for looking!

    NICE!
    The only reason some people get lost in thought... is because it is unfamiliar territory for them.

                  Nice work on the car.

                  That spoiler, or huge wing, looks absolutely ridiculous. You should have taken it off for him.

                    Only problem I see is that you said you dressed it with #39? I would hope not seeing as it is a heavy duty cleaner that doesn't leave behind any form of protection or shine. Sure you meant #40, easy typo, but just wanted to look out for ya

                    Other than that, sweet job man! Looks like a REALLY fun car; not my taste in styling but who cares when you have that bad boy under the hood

                      The car looks great. Nice deep red color. The paint looks great. Interior looks better then new. Way to go.

                        Oh yes, sorry meant 40. I was thinking 38 and 39 were the 2 cleaners and that 39 had the protection in it. Opps. Thanks for catching that.
