Mr. Redgoober4life...I'm sorry I offended you. I was just joking. You do have a nice and clean car. You did a great job on cleaning it up. I was just messing with you for the fact that this is Honda-Acura...not to say that there's anything wrong with a Dodge, or Mitsubishi (TeH)...or any other car for that matter. But, like I said, good job on cleaning it, and again, I'm sorry for offending you.

It's ok. Scroll down. I posted pictures of my car a few hours ago.

For the stratus I used Meguiars #83 DACP (Dual Action Polish Cleaner) to cut down the major swirling (still there but...it's daily driven and not practical to remove them all). Then I was sent some Gliptone Probuff by a detailer from Long Island (some of you may know him on other boards as GSRstilez). The DACP was done with a yellow medium cut pad, and the gliptone probuff was done with a gray pad. Both with a Porter Cable random orbital.

After that I put on a mixture of Meguiars NXT (i got a sample of it), Poorboys EX-P, and Blackfire sealant. I don't know why I did that, I just...decided to try something new.

I know, a few people have matched the block with an Eclipse head, stroked it to a 2.6L, and then slap a snail on it. It becomes quite perky then

I would be interested in trying this "Gliptone" stuff... looks interesting.

NXT wax is nice, it's one of the best waxes I've used. Blitz wax is definitely up there as well.
