    Well he is my partner in crime for doing all the details so we just messed around and tried different parts to clean on his car. So yes his engine did not get cleaned completely... And the wheels had some brake dust that just could not come off. Almost as if it was beyond the clear coat.

    Ok so this was not really a complete detail. No clay, wax, any of the good stuff... Just pics for fun you can say. But this is what i did:

    Rinsed with water
    Washed with P21S Autowash
    Rinsed the wheels with P21S Wheel Gel
    Washed Sprayed the engine and just wiped parts of it(used a cleaner but it obviously did not work great)
    Then just dried it...

    Please remember that this was not a serious detail, just a car to test some polish/cleaners etc.

    I hope you don't mind but someone on the evo boards asked about p21s so I quoted you on it and told everyone it was from detailingbliss.

    nice work!
