Looks like a very clean install, but you'd better detail the interior again, I see a speck of dust.

 

arrrrr~~ speck of dust must go. thanks.

i am going to be doing a complete wipe down tonight using Griot's LeatherCare Spray. and slick the wheels.

 

Looks good Ken.

Hey RJ, spotted that Dragon edition Kia Soul the other day, first I saw one in person, looks better than online, the details are more subtle so it takes that keen eye to appreciate it.

 

We are Lovin' It Motor On!! "Smaug" has had some, minor exterior mods. Follow Link to see the results...

Motored my Z this am and Speedshined.

Went to the mall (was kinda yanked out of bed by wife ) to buy kid' shoes. Its a tax-free day for BTS stuff so got a great deal on 2pairs.

So as we were walking in the mall (to go home I was hoping) got pulled into the Lego store to buy presents so bought a gift for myself ...some big **** remote control excavator kit.

I was super ready to go home and she then yanked me into the Coach store.

 

...any day now...

 

I now know why you all love Prima so much its a solid line up.

 

Prima Nero and Prima Wheel Armour

 

Primo Amigo followed by Menzerna Power Lock final wipe down with
Primo Hydro

 

Hubby and I did an interior clean-up on Smaug this afternoon, I let him clean the Leather Seats with Griot's Leather Care and I used the Interior Cleaner, both MF and Product worked GREAT!!

 

I like Griot's Interior Cleaner a LOT - it's really the only thing I continue to repurchase from them. It gets stains out of anything!

 

also might recommend Prima Nero'ing the plastic panels BEFORE getting any scuffs on a new car.

 

Woot! Gotz an authentic nismo oil cap for the Z. nicely weighted and looks great.

Stupid me already dropped it (cluts today due to cold) and put a small scratch on the center decorative emblem, but oh wellz.

 

my G wants one too now.

 

Smaug's Interior is becoming a challenge to keep looking "New", it is way more textured than I thought and anything I seem to use streaks it badly. I've used Griot's Interior Cleaner and tonight I found a mysterious hazing on the Passenger Side above the Glove Box...yeah I know that's where I sit, but I didn't do anything that would have left a mark like that. So I tried Prima Nero on it tonight and we will have to wait and see what it looks like in the Sunlight.

BTW...I did let Hubby have the Griot's Leather Care and an Interior Towel, may that's what the problem was!!

 

RJ- if all fails, take a very damp MF detailing towel with warm water and some car shampoo and wash/wipe the dash off. Then re-apply nero a few coats.

Nero's a great product and that's all I use on interior plastics. (50/50 mix with water).

 

As soon as I kick this cold in the **** I'm going to clay and wax by G and Z. finally getting cooler again.

 

gotz my other nismo oil cap for my G. man these little metal things really make the girls sparkle nicely.

 

50/50 huh?? I was using it straight, I'll re-mix it and see what happens. Car Shampoo...I've got MINI, ICE and Mequire's, I think the Meguire's is shot though, it looks very cloudy, ICE is the Newest, MINI's is what we got 2+yrs. ago when we picked up Molly. Sounds like a good idea I'll try it and let you know.

Thanks!!

 

RJ- Nero straight is fine, but it just takes more work to work the product in and to dry.
with 50/50 it dries very quickly and leaves behind enough product for protection.

here something blimey might like... seems like these dress up bolts are quite fashionable

Way past my bed time...I'll reply tomorrow.

 

Motored my G this am. Was a tad wet in some areas so used SprayOn CarWash to clean the sides of the car before SpeedShine. Thing is awesome.

I need to reorder another gallon of Speedshine again. They should just make a 2 gallon pack.

and cleaned the glass with WindowCleaner
at the very end. Slicked the wheels clean.

 

Yeah...I know Tomorrow ended up being 4 Days later. We've been extremely busy.

Gave Molly a nice bath on Thursday Night, ICE and Griot's Spray-on Wax, did some Minor Interior Cleaning too. I only had to spray off her Wheels, the Sonax still seemed to be protecting and just needed a little rub down!!

Did another Club Run yesterday AM, thought I was going to have to do it Solo, took a Fellow Miniac instead, had a Blast.

Attended a 50th Anniversary Party for Husband's Surrogate Mom & Dad Saturday PM.

Gott'a get youngest 4-legged Kid to the Vet, then I'll have time for Car Stuff!!

 

RJ- wow, sounds like a busy week and weekend. congrats to your hubby's surrogate mom and dad! 50yrs. wow.

hope your 4legged kid is okay!

motored my z this am , SpeedShined, raised the FitS's rear ride height a little bit (on coilovers), washed both Fit's. going to Slick the Z's wheels later this pm and play some piano and im done for the day.

 

Thanks Ken, it was a Very Special Day!!

Rosey our youngest 4-legged kid just had a re-check for a Bacterial Ear Infection. She's on a Prescribed Venison & Potato Diet and gets squirty stuff on her food for her coat, she lost all of the hair on her neck, it is FINALLY growing back.

Smaug got the Royal Treatment Today, a bath with ICE, Spray-on Wax, interior wipe down with ICE/Water, and Vacuum'd. Hubby even helped, I think he knows now how much work I've had to do keeping Molly and all of our other vehicles neat and clean!!
