A good couple of days carefully going over it with a machine polisher using multiple stages would most definitely see it looking 100x better. 202 is very very soft which means it marks easily but on the flip side it also means its relatively easy buff up.

I am extremely picky with mine and how i wash/polish/wax it.

I use Meguiars products primarily.

 

:drool:

 

Do you clay bar your car first? im going to have to spend a good few days doing mine as it really needs it. Ive spent nearly 12 hours with another member 2 stage polishing her, then a hand polish and waxing her but really needed a deeper cut. yours just looks like glass :love:

Yeah i clay mine every 6 months or so.

I use a Meguiars mt320 machine polisher with the yellow 6" pad and Meguiars ultimate compound, then il use another yellow pad with Meguiars ultimate polish followed by the black pad and either ultimate liquid wax or the gold class carnauba wax. After that i sometimes then apply swissvax best of show wax by hand.

Suprakeith I like the NX bottle placement. I was trying to think of somewhere to put one in mine but being an aero I need to still fit the roof in the boot. Think that may work :)

 

Thank you very much, that is a 15lb bottle so is quite big, they also do a 10lb bottle which would give you more room for roof in boot, have to say do think your supra is stunning.

wow, your car is near enough my perfect supra(missing the aero roof).

 

Mine needs a good tidy, ideally a new paint job as its not the best, just got me some new wheels which look abit like yours. and thinking of taking my sideskirts/spats off, and defo changing the front lip to a type 1 lip.

heres when I got it.

binned the 20" straight away and put my volks on but they look abit tiny, so just in the process of getting tyres for my new wheels.

Thank you :)

 

What delivery system are you using and what size shot? Also how quickly do you empty a bottle? (apologise for all the questions lol)

No worries about all the questions and it's a wet system with 75shot on throttle switch and on average bottle would last about 40 - 50 shots.

If you have any other questions or want to know more PM me and will give you my number bud

My 96 SZ Tagra top, owned since 2004 (this is my favourite recent photo taken about 1 month ago!) Have always loved my NA but the last few years Ive desired more power. Seriously considering Na-T but it does seem to bring some complications so im in limbo. Its currently completely stock apart from the wheels. Not sure why the photo is so small :(

 

Some great NAs in this thread!

Very nice.

 

My girlfriend has to do the same amount of work getting her black 350z all show room condition again.. Black cars are a nightmare

 

We are trying Ceramic coating on the car now as it last much longer then wax and is a lot tougher

That looks exceptional, exactly what I'd be going for. Unfortunately don't have the equipment or a garage to give it a full top-to-bottom going over. Might have to retire it for a week over the summer and "borrow" a garage.

 

Thanks for the help!
