Random Pics of My Velocity Red 8
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

IMHO it puts zaino to shame

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.

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!
