    Xjr

    Client is trading in this XJR tomorrow and he asked me to "tune it up" for him.

    His ex-wife had it for weeks prior and it showed

    I don`t have any full AFTER pics but I do have some JUST prior to final waxing pics.

    I also only have AFTER shots of the interior. The interior was not horrible, just some dirty seats and lots of dog hair!!!!

    Here are a few AFTER pics of the interior

    Remember, these pics are pre-wax pics........ The finish responded well with a both Poorboys 2.5 and Hi-Temps Medium Cut, both applied with a rotary.

    after experimenting with those products I then used Menzerna IP and then FP on the Cyclo.

    It was dark by the time I waxed it but I used Hi-Temps Poly Spray

    Here is a shot of the rear panel BEFORE

    Last pic of the same rear panel but a bit closer up.....the little specks are dust kicked up by the wind and attracted to the car because of static electricty.

    Adios,
    Anthony

    Anthony,

    How do you apply FP with the Cyclo? On my BMW it just looked like glue...

    Beautiful as always Anthony! I think the dealer, when this guy trades it in, is going to have a hard time not trying to sell this thing as new! It`s going to look better than what he`s got on his showroom floor I`d be willing to bet!!

    As always Mr. Orosco. Another superb job. Simply gorgeous. I will admit though I end up with the same result as you. We`re both overheated. :lol
