silver 996 detail
here is a Silver 996 I detailed this morning.
I clayed the car then followed it up w/ Meguiars #80 Speed glaze w/ a PC and then applied S100 (p21s but relabled and cheaper)
Pics didn't come out to good, I was amazed at how well the silver danced after the makeover. Pics don't do justice.

I've tried it on a few panels, don't know how my reaction is to it yet. I've also put it on a few wheels and am pleased w/ that task. I have a feeling it's just going to be something I put on bumpers and wheels. I've really gotta test it on a few different colors though.

Does it matter where the bottle was purchased from? I would be curious (regardless of the distributor) to hear WHY it took so long to get off. Still haven't pulled the trigger on Rejex and would like to hear any insight as to WHY 22 days was in the mix?

If I were you, I'd order it from Sandoval.
I ordered mine from a group buy on rennlist by a company called x-autoproducts. My first shipment went to the wrong address. I called and we had resolved and a new bottle came out, another 6 days later I called and then a new one went out next day. **** happens, and I understand that though.

Sorry bones! Totally forgot to ever check back w/ this thread.
Cost is hard to determine w/o seeing the car in person. But for example, that 996 was in pretty decent shape. I did a full clay, then went over w/ #80 speed glaze, followed up w/ show car glaze, then finished w/ S100 carnuba. I spent probably 3-4 hours on the paint alone. Did a vacuum of the interior and cleaning of windows and interior parts. I charged him $150. Similiar work from other detailers would probably be about $250 from what I've read and seen.

Just dusted it, i'm not a fan of putting products on the dash as the protection isn't needed w/ the composites they use these days. I also don't like them to be shiney. If the customer requests something on the dash I usually use 303 Protectant.
