Two-day engine detail(pics)
the following are by no means show quality but for 2 five hour days it came out pretty damn good!
Remember this?
Now
The engine will see more work but it's at the very least presentable.

Re: Two-day engine detail(pics) (SIGNGUY)
It looks FANTASTIC!!!!
You're welcome to visit my garage any time and help me with the nastiness that is my engine bay. (Although I shouldn't complain...the ol' girl ain't pretty all over, but she did rocket me 0-60mph today in 4.60seconds.)
Your car is really looking great. I don't want to say that the accident was a good thing, but your new ride is just outstanding.
By the way, what did you use to polish all the different metals?

Buffer for the large items followed by Mothers polish for all the aluminum or chrome. Megiars carnuba for the paint.

That's a freaking beautiful replacement Vette and awesome job on the engine detailing......Wish I could park my butt long enough to polish and buff like that. :cheers:

Looking good David. We knew it wouldn't be long before you had it spotless. I should do a little more work on mine to keep it clean longer. Keep up the good work.
