Since I had the day off today I figured I would get the Z cleaned up for Z Nationals. Took 5 hour this morning/afternoon to fully clean her up and I'm still not done. But I'll tell you what I believe this is the most clean my baby has ever been, (besides the pollen falling on her now :( ) Anyhow if anyone really what's to know here is the rundown of cleaning I did to her.
Full wash
Scrubbed the dimpled area around bottom with simple green
Washed bottom dimpled area off, to get simple green off
Fully dried
Used Meguiar's Scratch X around the whole car including headlights and taillights
***BTW this sh*t is awesome! made the car look like I put a fresh coat of clear on her!
Waxed
Cleaned and polished wheels
Cleaned and coated tires with matted finish gel
Cleaned up engine bay with grease lightning (clean but not perfect)
Painted steering res.
Cleaned underside of hood (once again clean but not perfect)
Wiped down interior
I still need to vacuum the interior and will probably have to clean her up again Saturday morning but for right now. My got that Z is sparkling. Pictures don't do her justice. Speaking of which here are some pics.
BTW please ignore my nasty seats
And for those who want to see my boo boo here I have to fix the paint I scratched off my caliper. Lol. I'd post a picture of my rust but it's too sad.
