Presidential Detailed: 2000 Phoenix Yellow ITR
Its been a while since Ive posted one of my details to this forum. Got bored, so dug up one of the very first details I performed when I started my detailing business about 4 years ago. Its pretty cool to go back and see the products and techniques that I was using and how much has changed since then.
This particular car belonged to a friend of mine. Its a 2000 Integra Type R, overall was in great shape, but needed a lot of love still. So Angelo finally let me do my magic and I think it turned out amazing! Love looking back at the Honda/Acuras that I have done in the past, they are always fun to work on.
Here are the pics: We will start with the Interior...ENJOY!

NOW TO THE FUN PART! EXTERIOR! Unfortunately, I took all before pictures of the door jambs and forgot to get after shots, but everything I took a picture of was either removed or cleaned 
Washing the wheels and door jambs..
Claying the car..
Test Spot on the hood...
50/50 on hood with Menzerna IP/LC PFW Pad
The wheels get the best treatment possible, I swear that wheel wasnt floating when I took the picture! :lol:
Taking the wing off, this enables me to polish the trunk lid the correct way.
Taping off the car...
50/50 on Front Fender after IP/PFW
Did I mention this car needed to be polished??
It needed to be washed at this point!
Last shots for day 1...Still need to go over again with 106ff/white and put LSP on.
After the wing bottom was polished, we re-installed to do the top. The tape is so that I dont hit the already polished fenders while polishing the wing...
Final Rinse Down..

Thanks guys! I enjoy looking back at these write-ups from time to time. This one was a great turn around. Not sure where this R is anymore, the owner sold it some time ago.

Its been a while since I performed this detail, but I am probably safe to say I spent somewhere around 20 hours on it from beginning to end.
