Detailed: 1993 240SX Drift Show Car (1/64th Style)

While at home today, I was cleaning out my truck and brought my sample sized bottles in for refilling. The client of this car (my 5 year old son) came up to me with this in his hand. "Daddy, this the shiniest one I have. Can you wax and buff it for me like those big cars you do?" was what I heard. My eyes watered up and I said, "Heck ya boy!" Here's the process: Washed with Dawn (Used bathroom sink and terry wash cloth. I was assisted by my son. Do not give me slack about using it!) No claying was needed. I guess I could have used a pencil eraser. Dryed with wife's hairdryer. Meguiar's #80 (Used terry washcloth) After my son's inspection, no major flaws were noticed. I just wanted to amp up the finish. There had to be 2 coats of clear on this beast. Polished out nice. Meguiar's #26 "X3" (Used yet another terry washcloth) I let the client get involved here. He ------ it evenly (sure) and out of the seams (yeah sure). We let it dry for 5 minutes and then removed with lots of heat (by breathing into the cloth) and speed. We did this for a total of 3 times. I could not believe the depth added. Simply a wet finish. The metal flake was amazing and clear. A winning wax for all cars and now tiny ones! Other products used.... No other products were used except time and love. I hope you all like this. I had fun doing it with my son and writing it. It was done in humor and fun. A nice way to spend Christmas Eve morning!!!! Some nice afters.......
