Cleaned & Minor Detailing

[Kaotic Lazagna]

Well, I decided to clean my car the other day. Cleaned with Meguiar's Gold Class Wash, waxed with FW1 cleaner wax (since I waxed it with NXT 2.0 a couple weeks ago), and used Back-to-Black on the black plastic trimmings. Dried with Meguiar's Quick Detail as well. Here are the results.

Roommate's Mazda 6 in the reflection:

Me and my housemates actually don't have a lawn mower. But I did borrow my neighbor's weedwhacker (since trying to mow down grass that tall would probably damage a lawn mower), and weedwacked the front yard down. I think we'll buy his father's old, but still new lawn mower for the future.

hehe, I guess that's the best looking place to put the MI decal. :biggrin:

Nice. I believe the Tokico's should be a tad bit more dampened than the TRD's. You'll love 'em.

I've been very busy with work for nearly 6 month that is why I am not as active or I never was hehe.

Don't worry I will never forget about yarisworld, this is the place where I got the mod idea from, even though I am not as active now I will still try to drop by here once a day. :thumbsup:

By the way KL your car looks shinny man, let me share a little cleaning secret with you, I am sure you heard of the California car duster, the wax that comes from the duster is a bit weak, the secret is to add some mild to zero cleaning ability of liquid wax ( I use turtle wax ultra gloss liquid wax because it got next to zero cleaning ability) and then put them on the car duster while you are using it, and wiped off the liquid wax with duster, this way you are basically wax your car wherever you go :biggrin:

But don't use the kind of liquid wax that have some kind of cleaning ability, it will lossen up the dirty in the car duster and made a mess on the car.

[Kaotic Lazagna]

Thanks Jumpman. hahaha, drive to Cali and I'll detail your sedan. hehehe

I can't bring myself to wipe my car when there's any dust on it. hahahaha. Thanks for the tip tho. Gotta put life before YW. hehe. That's also why I am not as active here anymore.

Oh, I don't think I'll be using quick detail spray when drying any more. Upon further inspection, I've found some micro scratches on my clear coat. I'm not saying that the quick detail is the cause, but since it happened when I did use it, I'm going to assume it is.

what do you guys mean by a clay bar ???

[Kaotic Lazagna]

It's part of my major detailing.
