  • Acura TSX DETAILED

    This past weekend I detailed a 2010 Acura TSX. This car was fairly new and the owner was concerned about the paint once he noticed the swirls and light scratches. He has had the car washed at the dealership so I can only assume that contributed to the condition of the paint. My goal was to get the paint as close to perfect as possible.


    Following the wash I clayed the paint which did result in removing some bonded contaminants.

    There were some light water spots as well.

    The paint was a little harder than I had first imagined so I went with M105

    Interior just received a wipe down and paint was topped with NXT 2.0. I also explained to the owner the proper way to wash and protect his paint in order prolong a swirl free shine.

      Nice job... dealers

      I'm a bit surprised how hard the Acura paint is as well. Those swirls were pretty minor for M105.

        Thanks Shawn and Bill. Yeah, I was quite surprised as well I had actually told the customer it would take me around 4 hours to finish but after the test spot the whole job ended up taking me about 6.5 hours. No rotory was used on this job. W-8006 and W-9006 pads were used on the DA.

                            Great job! My mom has a black car with some blue flake and I love working on it.

                            What color flake did this have?
