32994, Car just doesn't 'shine' anymore.
Posted by Mystic511, Oct-21-02 07:01 AM
In my area, there are alot of eclipses and talons... My car just doesn't seem to 'shine' as much as the other clipses'. Seems like my paint has dulled or something. And I know they haven't washed their cars either, because I can see the city grime over all of our cars.

Any tips?

I love 3m Imperial Hand glaze to make my car shine. I does wonders for me.

The last time I waxed my car I noticed the same thing. I got some Meguiars(sp?) scratch-x and went over all the dull parts and shined them up. Then went over the car with Meguiars gold glass and the car looked much better. Another thing to do is get some clear coat polishing compound and a high speed buffer and just go to town. Just be careful, you CAN ruin your cars finish that way.

I luv working at Land Rover. I get to use this really expensive wax and I can buff or wax my car while Im at work. O its great. I wash my rims everyday or every other day and wash my car about 2-3 times a week. I get bored.

same reason i love it that my boy works for acura. I get to wash my car whenever, get to use their bays for working on the car, gotta love it. He he, i get all the benefits without having to work there, i just go for fun! :thumbsup ONly thing that sucks is the hella speed bumps around the shop. I thought i was gonna crack my boys bodykit going over one of those damn things.
