Also playing with manual DSLR camera settings. The auto-everything setting has not been cutting it!

Using Meguires Deep crystal polish (#2) and NXT Paste wax. All hand-done; no buffers.

It also helps to have a dark-colored car, in the shade and under or near trees

 

Awesome DB...i bet it smells good

FYI this should be in the Picture Share forum

 

damn youre so patient , i bet it took at least an hour to wax this thing , btw i almost got another db but i went with silver, just look alot cleaner when u dont wash it.

 

The Silver M3 in the background is my old car. I never had to wash that thing (once a month). With the DB, it needs to be washed every weekend to look good... or I can go 2 weeks if I am lazy. But it would look really bad after a month.

That's an hour for each coat. I did polish and wax. My arm's tired!

 

NXT smells good enough to eat!

Thanks...

 

Looks real good. Nice cars! I had an e46 myself before my 350.

 

Looking awesomely clean... good detailing job!

I always try to clean the car weekly... it is the least you need to do in order to keep it looking reasonably well in my climate (rains quite a bit this time of the year).

Keep it up!

very nice job cleaning it. it's too bad nissan can't paint for **** (omg orange peel)... but IMO it's still worth keeping what you have as clean as possible

 

looks clean! btw does your neighboor have a Z?

 

That's my wife's 06 enthusiast. That's where my hiz-n-herz name comes from. I have to wash hers and take some pics for my avatar.

 

Very nice and clean!
Love the last picture!

 

***ga stole my Z!!

 

I love those rims!!!

 

+1 on loving those rims..

 

Looking good. I picked up some NXT paste last week for the first time and love it. I was going to get Zaino, but I figured I'd give the NXT a try based on the good reviews I've heard. If it has good longevity I'll probably stick with it. I've tried it on my dad's '05 DB enthusiast and my white '99 Eclipse. So it does good on dark and light. I just have to wait until I get my Z buffed before I wax it.

 

You should try Zaino. The Z2 smells like cherries.

 

very nice pics....
