Its been about over a month since I got to clean her new car up. I let her take ol' Red to work as I washed her car up. Started with a nice wash with Megiars Deep Crystal wash, followed by a drying twice, then waxed it with Auto Glym High Definition Wax, then vacuumed and conditioned all the leather seats and detailed interior with Meguiar's Natural Shine. Then shined the tires with tire shine (cars are the only thing I use tire shine on). Turned out pretty nice! Man it was dirty:

Dirty on the left, clean on the right:



right after just washing it:



the wax (good ****)



All done:



I wanted to wash it in driveway, but I have a small leak in the spigot that I have to fix this week. But this way I could pull under the shade tree to wax and vacuum.

 

looks good. I did the GF's car a few weeks back, and kinda pissed me off, since it's also white and you can hardly tell what you do on a white car. lol

 

well luckily this white is a pearl white, so it has metallic flake in it which makes it a bit easier to tell a difference. i must say, the reflections were do bright in full sun, i needed sunglasses haha. That AutoGlym wax is awesome!

 

Looks great!

 

Needs some new wheels!

 

Looks good!

 

Probably more important things now that he is a homeowner. :-)

 

I don't think that would have stopped Mike, lol.

Lookin good, i just purchased some of that wax (thanks KLC) and i can't wait to give it a shot.

 

Lol yeah I do have far more important things to buy and do. I dove some chrome wheels for it but she likes it the way it is, so I can't say anything....love the car though

 

Looks good Scott!

 

Looks good but where’s Sara !?

lol I was just showing him his options not forcing him. He's a big boy and can make his own decision. I happened to remember him saying how much he liked the wheels. Just showing him for future reference.

 

What'd i tell ya, it wasn't going to stop Mike.

 

I dont have to worry about a house right now so no, but when that time comes the house will take priority. however you can still mod and have a house. You just have to be smart about it.

 

Not to be an a$s or to clutter this thread but taking financial advice from you probably isn't the best.

 

You can think what you want, but just like I said. Just because you have a house doesn't mean you have to pinch your pennies. I didn't say this month go blow 1k on some wheels and tires. I was talking more like throw 20 bucks back a check for modding IF you can do it without it effecting you livability and savings. Not saying I have been perfect this last year, but I have had a lot on my shoulder and my thought process wasn't the best and I have said that multiple times, but a select few keep wanting to bring it up like you right now. It's not like I am the only one blowing money on cars on this forum, but at least I can say I haven't finance any of them. If things had of worked out like I originally planned I wouldn't of had to sell the mustang and I would be keeping the f150, but hey you know what **** happens. So I sold the mustang and I am letting go of my dads truck being that it cost to much to drive and cost to much to stay parked. Selling it now while its still worth decent money is the wise thing to do.

 

That does look awesome Myke! Maybe one of these days!

 

Its pretty sad how doing a simple PS for you turned into this. All I was trying to do is give you an idea of something you could do later on. Btw why is there a y in my name now? lol

 

its alright dude, i thank ya for doing that for me though. Ill show Sara it and she may want some. I bet I could comb CL: and possibly find some.

 

looks good.lol yeah
