| Detailed: 2 300ZX Engine Bays
Detailed these two engine bays tonight. Started at 5:30 and finished at around 8:30. Not to bad, this was just strictly engine bay and no exterior. I think they turned out really well. Definitely better than before. Red one was a TT so it was a pain in the ass working on it. Super tight and the engine was still really hot. Black one had these little white specs that were a pain to take out.
Products Used:
-Majestic Solution Super Green Stuff
-Finish Kare 108 Poly Protectant
-Isopropyl Alcohol
-Costco MFs
-Meguiars Brush
-Michael's Brush
-Microfiber Applicator Pad

I don't mean to sound cocky but I don't believe there's anything I can learn at vcc that I can't over the internet. I'd rather take a business course where I can learn to manage and run a business properly. Thanks though

Theres a chance I would have turned it down if he wanted a full exterior interior detail. It's almost not worth it.
