[zebra]

Nothing wrong with hard parkers..so long as they don't claim they are the greatest steerer since senna

Which a lot of them do

Truth be told if I had a car worth polishing I prob would do it

[AngryRB]

Its great to see cars being cared for so well, awesome work!! tip of the cap to you guys, love ya work..

Detailing can be as intensive as you want it to be. Some just like to give the car a wash, have it nice a clean for when they take it for a drive.

Other, like me, like detailing to forget about everything for a few hours and make something perfect.

There is a lot of personal satisfaction into making something look good yourself. Its the transformation.

I tend to be like Antonio. I love to get everything as perfect as I can. I did a 2 and a 1/2 day detail a few months back, full wheels off detail. It was hard work, but it was well worth it. A total of 27 hours went into it. The owner loved the result and I loved doing it.

Win/Win in my books.

Theres nothing more i love than detailing my car aswell, a bit of music and a few beers after make me a happy camper. I am currently however put off as my front bar and bonnet have stone chips.

Detailing is one of the only things i do that enables me to put everything behind me and just enjoy the process. I live a pretty crazy life. 3 young kids, work 50+ hours/week plus going to uni at night. So when i get some time to myself getting a few JD and cokes and chilling in my garage with some tunes for a few hours is bliss for me!!!!

I've actually just set aside the day to finally do the GTR.

Looking forward to it.

I love detailing - so much so that me and a mate are planning to start our own business doing it. Moving to Brisbane next week so we may give it a shot then.

My GTT sedan. Photo doesn't do it justice - came up reallly nice after 4hours of cleaning and polishing

A mate's GU Patrol. This thing had thousands of scratches down the sides from off roading, but we managed to cut and polish the majority of them out. The size of the car meant we ended up spending a whole day on it.

My father's old VW Karmann Ghia. The paint on this thing is shot but after a detail it ended up looking respectable. Might mean the respray can be put off for a bit longer anyway.

^ Look fantastic, well done.

I just finished the process on my R34. Made a thread with pics and details, but thought i'd attach a few here too.

Cheers.

I don't understand why people don't enjoy cleaning their car.

The paint on my roof have already faded & the swirl marks never really bothered me, I guess I'm just a very untidy person in general (my room is always a mess), I've a shit load of random crap (some of them from 2 years ago) just laying on the passenger/back seats inside the car.

I pretty much just wash it with $7 wash & wax from time to time when I can be bothered.

^^^^ unworthy haha

[Hadouken]

Soooo, I gave meguiars tech wax 2.0 a shot this morning. I would say, easy to use looks slick, very smooth. Being synthetic it gives more the "wet" look than a metallic pop. I think Im a wet kinda guy haha.
