Detailed: Black '06 WRX

Detailed a friend's '06 WRX named "Rexy". She came to us in... interesting condition.

Used M105, M205 and topped with Meg's 16 on Purple-foamed wool, white pad and blue pad respectively. Only had 6 hours to work on her as the owner had to go celebrate his birthday. I had him clay the car himself the day before. That way I could detail the car in that time. Also had slowguy working with me as well. Two Porter Cable's make the job much faster. Huge turn-around from what this car used to look like.

Before:







Under the lights







Many jokes were made about what he used to wash the car. Black being such an unforgiving colour, there were a lot of issues and it was easy to see. Fortunately most of it was cleared up with one pass of M105.

50/50's











Ta-da! Done. Ignore the paid Chinese help.



Reflection time





This is a beautiful and LOUD car. FMIC, Turboback, tuned, 18x9.5's





Sorry, I didn't get much time to take afters. We were done right on the dot and the owner was gone!!



All-in-all, fun day.

Great job on that thing. What did you follow the 105 with and what was your LSP?

Yes! Sorry about that.

M105 = Meguiar's 105
M205 = Meguiar's 205

16 = Meguiar's 16 Paste wax.
