  • Honda 2003 Detail job

    So, my latest detail job on 2003 Honda Accord. You will notice scratches on the front and rear bumpers. However, once again the Meguiar's product line did an amazing job. My DA polisher sure makes the job a lot easier. My product regimen is:

    Meguiars Hyper Wash
    Clay with quik detailer
    Meguiars Paint Cleaner (discont'd product)
    Glaze #7
    Nxt Tech Wax (2 coats, 24 hours apart)

    The silver really popped this time as I went back to using the Glaze #7. I had read on the forum that some guys are using two coats of Nxt Tech wax, but carefully space the applications 12-24 hours apart. There is no question that the second coat makes a huge difference shine wise as well as for durability. With the dirt roads I live on, this product regimen has proven itself over and over again.

    Enjoy!

    You've achieved something that isn't always easy to do: bring out super high gloss and depth to silver paint. We have for years said that the use of a pure polish is an optional step, and that it's benefits are most noticeable on darker colors. We also know that, when done right, it can transform light colors into something you don't normally expect out of silver, white, etc. To many casual users it's a step that doesn't really do much, but to a discerning eye it makes all the difference in the world. And you've proven it once again. Nicely done!

      Michael,

      Thank you for your kind comments! By the way, correction. The Deep Crystal Paint cleaner has not been discontinued. The customer service reps at Meguiars told me it would be about a year ago. I am really glad to see this still in the line up as I believe, as with claying, this is an important step in preparation for the Glaze #7 and the Nxt Tech wax.
