It was a great Sunday in NY so I decided to wash my G for the very first time since I bought it back in January. I finally got to try out CG Jet Seal 109. I remeber readling about black paint and sealant how it would make it too shiny and metallic/un-natural looking but read that JS109 is an exception to this. I believe there is another thread on JS109 on a BO (OB). For 6 months the paint had been spot clayed, polished with Menzerna PO106FF using PC on LC white pad, PB Natty Blue applied and kept clean with PB S&W. All detailing supplies by Detailed Image thanks to George.

Today washed it with Dawn/sheepskin mitt/two buckets, spot clayed and hand dryed with WW drying towel. JS109 was appied with PC and blue pad, then hand buffed with MF. I'm planning on applying Natty Blue after 24hrs.

It's hard to tell by looking at these photos but too shiny? Comments appreciated. Haven't really modded yet but springs and volk coming so save those comments please.

 

Nice job looks like a million bucks

 

Looks great. why would you think it was too shiny? Looks very wet which is what black should look like.

 

I think your car looks great. Very nice job.

 

No such thing as "too shiny", that would be kind of like having too much money.

The car looks great. What do yo mean by "spot clayed"? You didn't clay bar the entire painted surface? Why not?

 

neva to shiny..

 

I like it, makes me want to trade in my IP to get OB...

 

looks very nice.

 

looks slick.

too shiny? how could somethign ever be too shiny?!

 

Looking great! I'm interested to hear your thoughts after applying a coat of Natty's Blue and how it effects the reflectiveness and depth and gloss.

Keep up the great work, thanks for sharing!

George

 

wow, not too shiny at all. looks fantastic!

 

Thanks for the compliments. I read in few different places about a sealant and black paint including here but overall I like it so far.

Since I have 900mi in 6 months, never driven in the rain and garaged every night, it's been kept pretty clean (so far). I "spot clayed" meaning clayed all glass surfaces and few areas where I felt some bumps with my figer tips while washing. I didn't want to clay the entire car because then I would have to polish the whole car again

Will post pics after I apply NB.

 

WOW 900 miles damn. So you didnt wash the car for 6 months? Or did you take it to car washes. Because if dust settled on it it would pissed me off.

 

join g35nyc.com ftw?

 

wow... its never to reflective if its a nice car that CAN reflect. such as OB on the 37. IP is garbage for looking good
