Well take your best shot, I bet you wont figure it out!

Before:




After:















Pictures do it justice in the before, but not the after!

 

duct tape?

 

I would take a wild guess and say tire shine. I used it on my friends Z28 and it did wonders as far as looks anyways you couldn't even tell the clear coat was coming off. ha ha Thats pretty impressive tho whatever you used!

 

It was this:



I was doing my dash when I accidentally touched the rag I was using to the roof of the car, and it looked great, tried it on the A-pillar, and decided to do the whole car!

After I took these pics it sprinkled a bit outside and it made the stuff run, so I cleaned it up and used NXT Tech Wax over it to protect it, and it looks amazing!

Last time I made it look like that it too me 3 days in the summer! And I used a lot more than $20 of stuff too...

 

Thats insane, tire shine? Haha, you would think that it would be too strong for something like that.

The 3 day paint restore job:

 

^amazing stuff...and what a BIG difference!!! Will have to try in on some spots

 

I would think it would leave a residue, or a greasy film of some sort on the car.
Does it dry up nice?

 

Very nice!!! I am not a big fan of Turtle Wax, But my grandpa had bought some of the Ice Paste, and it worked great on my Camaro, The clear was disapeering on it too. I normally use wizards, but you might try that. That is so cool haha. I have heard Mag and Alum polish works great on plastic trim pieces.


Good luck man!! Keep the car looking great!!! Are you going to paint those wheels?

This was my guess.

But dang, that did come out fairly good. Nice.

 

wow, i gotta try that sometime. slap it on then wax on top. Good idea man, take your gold star for the day

 

Umm actually I applied it in direct sunlight because I never set out to do the exterior of the car, so once it was on the car it kind of got baked in, and it didn't matter if the car was hot. After I got the protectant applied and all nice and buffed free of trouble spots, I used my Meguiars NXT Tech Wax 2.0 on it and applied a light coat, this was the hardest part, since this protectant was so easily applied, it was also pretty easy to upset, and since wax is slightly abrasive, it tried to take it right off.

But yeah it dried pretty good, and once you get wax on it, its just like any other wax job.

I still have to put another few coats of wax on it to make sure its good and protected so it will last, but I'd say for an impromptu job it turned out amazingly!

Yeah, I just need to get the stuff for the wheels and take them off and have my hand with them and get it done, it won't be hard to do. But thanks for the compliment!

 

And here I was thinking that you got something from that web site that I sent you....LOL nice mistake! Looks nice!!!

 

I read just about every page on the site you sent me, and I think its a great site, I just didn't buy anything haha

 

Try straight oil. 7 Days the peeling clear coat will be MIA

 

What exactly do you mean?

If I have read correctly (may have missed the point) you are trying to temporarily get the peeling clear-coat to disappear. Tire shine is good..... Oil is awesome. I hated to do it, but it lasts a whole lot longer than anything else I tried. It's water resistant too
