I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

NXT x 1, S100 x 1, #26 x 1 on Red

Post by GSRstilez » May 15, 2004

I don't feel bad posting pics anymore since I'm in summer trim :D, so I will keep TI posted on my product results. Anyways, pollen sucks...a LOT. I decided to do a Meguiar's NXT Wash then top with Meguiar's #26 Hi-Tech Yellow Wax (Liquid) since I haven't used it in years. So currently, I have:

NXT Tech Wax x 1
S100 x 1
#26 x 1

Next week, I will be claying the car, then polishing out the swirls and other defects from winter. Following that I will be protecting with Wolfgang, then eventually layering it, and finally topping with a carnauba.

With #26, I noticed it darkened the paint and added a lot of reflectivity. It's a great topper that you can get at pretty much any auto parts store.

Hi tenchu,

I had the rims painted to match my paint perfectly. If the body seems a little darker than the paint it's because the products I have used darkened the paint's color.

Wetsand, I am still learning. It is nothing to fuck with and no matter what you need solid knowledge and experience with a rotary polisher. I'd stay away until you learn a lot or take some courses on it.
