Perfection Auto Care
FYI......We have a member MeZoomZoom that owns perfection auto care here in Las Vegas.
They just detailed my new Range Rover (black) I have never seen better work in my life, the paint looks 3 feet deep. Anyone in Vegas that wants the best he is it. He is going to do my RX-8 next, I can't wait. The name of his company does indeed descibe his work...Perfection. Kind regards, Doug Green Las Vegas |
Looks really nice.......do you know what products he uses?
|
I know it must be a good Carnauba wax........send him a note. He might tell you his secret.
Member MeZoomZoom Kind regards, Doug PS ...70 degrees here in Vegas today |

Perfection Auto care and my RR

whats with the "70 degrees in vegas today"........was that supposed to be funny?
You do realize it was the coldest day since 1980 today in Massachusettes. It was -11 F when I got up this morning.....not pretty. My Blazer sounded like a mule when I started it. BTW...I checked the posts from meZoomZoom. It looks like he likes Meguires products.......but I'll PM to check. Hope you you dont get too uncomfortable if it goes under 65 tonight...:p |
Thanks Gyro!!!!
If it gets below 65 on Saturday I might have to break out the coats. DG |
-25 C here so I feel you pain (and more)

Zymol
I only use waxes on my cars as paint sealants do not allow the paint to breath. If the paint cannot breath then it will start to craze, crack and peel. Just like skin. |
Natural
Another one of mine

Re: Carnuba or Carnauba Wax
Originally posted by Doug Green Ok...what do I like! Atlantique™ Atlantique Glaze is based on a custom formula developed for Ralph Lauren’s 1937 Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantique. As with many Zymöl prepared cars in other years, the Bugatti won "Best of Show" at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance in 1990. The protective ingredients in Atlantique are clove, coconut, cinnamon bark and sunflower oils. Atlantique contains 60 percent Brazilian No. 1 White Carnauba by volume. Kind regards, Doug Green Las Vegas They both are about 60% white carnauba (you have to melt it in your hands before applying). Sounds wickedly indulgent but my finances dictate the Japon(tm) wax. |
Japon is great stuff also!!!!!

Member MeZoomZoom Kind regards, Doug PS ...70 degrees here in Vegas today A question for Gyro. It's cold and my car is garaged. I have put several coats of Meg. Gold on. Does temp. make any difference with waxing? Doug, any comments? Thanks and stay warm!!!!! |

Gold on. Does temp. make any difference with waxing? Doug, any comments? Thanks and stay warm!!!!! If you were wondering about temps for application.....well thats another story. I would make an effort to apply wax in a room temperature environment .....out of the sun of course. The wax will be hard when cold...and too soft when hot outside. Its all about preping applying correctly. Once thats done.......dont worry about how cold it gets outside......the wax will do just fine. |
Thanks...The garage is not heated. The application temp has been around 30 degrees. The car buffs out O.K. and looks good when it is in the sun. Just curious.....Keep me in mind for meets on your end when the spring finally gets here. Thanks again!!!

Boys, it was cold and cloudy here in Vegas today....I broke out the coats...it was 60 degrees burrrrrr
Kind regards, DG |
My 2 cents:
I use P21S and Blitz carnuaba waxes... Added bonus, the P21S will not leave any white residue on black plastic, etc. you may get it on. Blitz may the longer lasting of the two - if your car stay outside, it may be the better choice. |

Just like skin. If not, that has to be one of the stupidest thigs I have ever heard! It is paint, not a natural product that requires oils and moisturizer to stay pliable. Damn I have to go lotion up my car! lol. |
The only time you're paint needs air is when its a brand new paint that needs to cure. That is why you don't apply sealant or waxes on a paint that hasn't been fully cured.

i've heard blitz and 3M wax are both good

Where did you get that banner?
|
He can't answer you because he was banned for being a bad boy.
He is a pain and does not hold back. I know this guy (Douglas Green) he also has a place here in Aspen. He got the banner because he owned a Mazda dealer years ago and still knew the owners. I can also tell you that he is a old man that directed old t/v shows Hawaii five-o and the first few magnum PI's. http://www.tvtome.com/tvtome/servlet...personid-51990 He also has a winery in Africa http://www.fastmoving.co.za/detail.jsp?providerNo=2622 He also has written several books. He is (was) a full on pain in the butt, but I know him and so does a lot of people in Las Vegas. I am a new member but I have been a guest on this site for 5 or 6 months. (please don't ban me because I know him, other members know him too.) I think Doug is just a old man with nothing better to do. Malcom |
I use Zymöl products also
