2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse

Hemin8r · Nov 2nd, 2006, 11:38 AM

Well, here's another 2006 I just detailed. Another new car that for one reason or another has been neglected. Paint was rough & there were droppings, stains & who knows what else on the paint. This color doesn't really appeal to me only because it looks like a primer. I believe it's a pearl white or something. It's not a real shiny color to begin with.

1. Washed with NXT
2. Clayed
3. M80 with 8006 pad
4. #26 Wax

Engine:
1. Safe D Greaser
2. Hyper Dressing

Wheels:
1. Cleaned with Wheel brightener
2. Tires dressed with All Season Dressing

Mats:
1. Cleaned with Folex

After

Thanks. Mats took me about 15-20 minutes for both.

I sprayed Folex & let it soak it for about a minute. I then scrubbed the mats using one of Meguiars brushes. I followed with Bissells Little Green Machine to do the extraction.

By the way I used NXT Tire cleaner as well to clean the tires.

WOW that's a dirty car. Nice job. Darn it, I just talked myself out of getting a Little Green Machine. I might have to reconsider.

Yeah, it's acutally not that bad. The only thing is if you want to extract the carpet in the car the hose itself is not that long. I'm saving up to get the Mytee II. Other than that it's not that bad.
