2013 GT-R - CQuartz Finest 1 year Checkup & Quick Maintenance Detail

[zmcgovern45]

I spent a weekend working on this car in August of 2014. At that time the paint was corrected and coated with CQuartz Finest. The owner opted to bring it back for a quick touch up to address some water spots, carbon buildup on the exhaust tips, and get the wheels looking good again.

Tires: Tuf Shine Tire Cleaner & Tire Brush
Wheels: Sonax Full Effect with various tools and brushes
Wash: CarPro Reset Shampoo with CarPro Merino Wool wash mitt
Iron Removal: CarPro IronX
Tar Removal: Tarminator (spot treat)
Water Spot Treatment: CarPro Spotless
Wash Again
Dry: Master Blaster 8HP
Wheel Sealant: CarPro HydrO2
Tire Dressing: CarPro PERL
Exhaust Tips: CG Metal Polish + Protection via MF Towel
Final Wipe down: CarPro Reload
Interior: thorough vacuuming, dusted all cracks and crevices, wiped down leather, protected vinyl with Einszett Cockpit Premium



Wheels cleaned up nicely and were sealed with HydrO2



The owner washes the car from time to time, but usually just wipes it down with a quick detailer if it is not too dirty. As you can see, the coating still performed like it was new. The water simply beaded right up when it was sprayed, and sheeted off easily when it was poured on the paint.

Car was cleaned inside and out. Looked great.




Tires were nicely dressed which makes the glossy wheels really pop




The GT-R was in good company.







Then I was finally able to get some good shots since I did not have the chance to do so the first time around. Car still looks great.
