Default Winter detail (pic's)

Did the following:
- strpped old wax (dawn and foaming gun x2)
- zaino clay treatment
- masked trim etc.
- porter cable with orange 4" pads and menzurna
- menzurna paint sealant (1 coat)
- P21S (2 coats)
- misc interior detailing (engine, door jams etc.)
Wow, it was a lot easier to write than it was to do! Took about 25 hours in total but that was sipping on the occasional beer.

Very, very nice. What did you use on the engine?

Personally, I think the BBS's should be on that car....

Gorgeous 2s regardless.

I agree on the BBS comment. I put the track wheels on for winter storage. I picked them up this season and absolutely love them.
Cheers,

Really nice work. The black in the interior and engine really jump out. What was the engine process?

Question

tjangi,
I have the motor sound option on my 98 993 and it looks the same as the picture in beers4all. Am I missing something?

Thumbs up

Beers,
BTW, the car looks great. Nothing like a black car right after a detailing! Now we can just sit back and wait for the good weather next spring to get them out again.
