Ganyon's 99 GS build thread

Thanks. I have been hanging with a local shop that does detailing. The owner said he liked my work and he might need me when business picks up in the summer. He has also been showing me new products and detailing techniques.

Lucky..

I'm sure it's not complaining, lol.

Not at all. I like keeping my car clean. It actually needs its wax job. I try to wax about every 3 months.

I use Armor All Wash and Wax treatment on my car every wash. I don't really want to give it a real wax job until it's all one color, lol.

 

[Ganyon]

Lol, atleast you wash it.

I'm like you. I can't stand a dirty car. The fact that I have slight overspray on my tires from my wheels is driving me bonkers.

 

[Ganyon]

Scrub them bad boys clean.

I'm going to wait until I've had all four wheels painted for a full day, so that way the paint isn't soft and I can wash everything.

 

[Ganyon]

Thats a good idea.

 

[Ted's Owner]

Thats a good idea.

Thanks. I figured if I'm going to spend 2+ hours per wheel, let's play it safe so I don't have to re-do them.

I use regular soap and water or Windex, then either protectant (Armor All and Turtle Wax make good ones) or tire shine. It works really good.

To keep my hoses clean, I spray wd40 on them. I haven't done it to the radiator hoses yet because idk if it will burn and smoke.
