Just thought I would share some random pics of my freshly waxed Velocity Red 8.



Here's a shot of the hood taken from inside the garage that shows depth and reflection:



Love the different shapes this car has:



This pic was taken in direct sunlight, and is about as good as I could get the gold flakes to show up in a picture. Man, you gotta love those gold flakes:



Half shot of car. This shows how different the VR color looks in sun vs shade (although the hood doesn't show up that well in this picture):



The last shot just shows the kind of "glow" that you get when the car is in the shade, due in part to the carnauba wax I am using:



Happy Thanksgiving. I continue to be thankful for 9000 RPM rotary powered vehicles! :D

 

looks amazing

 

wow.... i wish i have one.... is that gold sparkle the matalic stuff?

 

Very nice Rob...when are the wheels scheduled to arrive?

 

Let me guess... SSR2, AIO and Trade Secret x2 ? :D

IMHO it puts zaino to shame

 

The SSR Professor's are suppose to be here in December. My vendor already confirmed that they are on the boat and in route!

 

How in the world did you know that!?

I was a long time Zaino user (7 years), but I agree that some of the stuff that is out there now is incredible as well. I think this combo works better on the darker Velocity Red than Zaino.

 

looks mike my car..nice

 

Good job on the wax..... very clean.

 

nice job ! looks great

 

That looks incredible ! I wish my VRed looked that good. How long did it take you to wash, polish, wax, etc ?

 

Thanks for the nice comments.

Probably about 6 hours, maybe 7.

I went over the car 3 times, first with a swirl remover (Poorboys SSR2), then a paint cleaner (Klasse All in One), then the wax (Top of the Lines Trade Secret carnauba wax).

Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Did you use a PC or was it by hand?

 

never c car that shiny before...!! cool!!

 

PC all the way. I highly recommend the Porter Cable polisher for anyone serious about keeping their car looking the best it can possibly look.
