Getting a 300M detailed
 

So I spent $200 and had the "detailed" inside and out before shipping it to
my in-laws. I used to wax and in later years put NuFinish on my cars, but I
have to say they never came out like this. It is incredible. Maybe I
should keep it. LOL.

I have to think that although the car is gorgeous, the process had gone to
wear out the clear coat faster? Any ideas on whether that is true?

Getting a 300M detailed
 

Art,

I don't believe so. Owning a Black 300M has taken its toll out on my arms.
Sort of like the karate kid with "wax on, wax off" for four years. I have
not only kept this car clean, but also have maintained the paint by using
polish and wax. I see no evidence of the clear being removed.

Unfortunately, in the direct sunlight, you can see the scratches in the
clear caused by the automatic car wash. What can you do? It's either salt
staying on the car or having it removed but marking the clear.

No more dark colored cars for me. They're beautiful when clean but they
don't stay clean for long.

I think they used polishing compound on the finish which is something I
never did. Did the polish you use have an abrasive in it?

By the way, my 2 new Honda's are white. They get filthy very quickly. My
300M and Avalon were beige. That is probably the way to go. I still don't
buy silver. I've seen too many cars with problem silver/gray paint. Plus
it matches the road so the car is less visible.

TWO new Hondas? I thought you only had one!

Why not give one to the In-Laws, and

KEEP the CLUNKER???

$200?!?!?! We charged $135 and spent ALL DAY if it took it to clean a car.

As far as ClearCoat, ALL professional cleaning/finish products are
clearcoat safe now. For a couple reasons:

First, all cars are base/clearcoat now, and it's a Polyesther finish to
boot. Just like those high-waisted pants you wear when you're in Florida! ;)

The other thing is, EPA compliance is a LOT easier for products used on
Clearcoat paints. It doesn't take (and you don't WANT!) quite as much as
you would for a Urethane or Acrylic finish, so the products are easier to
manufacture. And aren't as harsh. (You also can't RUB a new finish with
harsher chemicals like you could before. A Urethane would stand up to MUCH
more punishment than the new finishes. They were a lot thicker and more
durable. Hell, when I left the Toyota dealer, we were just beginning to
use WATER BASED touch up paint!!!)

We never used Polishing Coupmound. When the going got tough, I used 3M
Fill 'N Glaze, which is perfectly CC safe, or a swirl remover for black
cars made by another company. If you couldn't at least HIDE the blemishes
with either or those products, you needed new paint...

Actually the 300M looks so beautiful all cleaned up that maybe we will keep
it and give them the new Accord hybrid. Yeah, if that lottery ticket comes
thru, that is exactly what we will do.

They spent less than 4 hours on it. It was actually $182 plus tax.

I have white and even though it show dirt, it doesn't show scratches or
imperfections. I can also have it washed and not see the water drops when
some of it sprays back on like I have to with white.

The only silver that I ever liked was the Chrysler bright silver. Otherwise
I still like white and gold/champagne and the red that Chrysler offers.

Art,

Not that I'm aware of. I use either Mothers or Meguiars polish.

I had a red Subaru Legacy. It showed swirl marks really bad. I remember
picking it up new at the dealer and being disgusted with the swirl marks.

Suit yerself, but I would "waste" a whole lot MORE time with Chryslers-
a whole fleet of them! One each of every Chrysler 300 Letter Car between
1957 and 1961, A 1967 Hemi GTX, '66 Satellite, a 1971 Imperial, a 1970
300 Hurst Edition, a '67 Charger (383), '68 Charger R/T (440), '71 GTX.
Maybe a few Airflows from the 30s, a LeBaron-bodied Imperial, a '57
DeSoto, a couple of Vipers (roadster and coupe), a 2008 Challenger,.....
and for sentimental reasons a '54 New Yorker (331 Hemi) because that's
what brought my pink little behind home from the hospital :-p



;-)

Getting a 300M detailed
 

Thinking about it, I would go with a Airflow too.

http://www.clearlight.com/~brawicz/chrysler-airflow/

For those who are unfamiliar with it, the car was so strong the Chrysler
thru it off a cliff to show that afterwards the doors would still open.
That film footage is still often shown today when it fits a comedy sketch on
tv.

Drifting one more notch off topic, there's a TV commercial running now
for some brand of pickup truck (Ford? Toyota? Can't remember) in which
they crush it from both ends with two bulldozers. The bulldozers then
back off, and the two passengers (that you didn't notice while the
bulldozers did their thing) open the totally unscathed doors and get out.

I have no memory of the event (though I do remember the car from when I
was roughly 3 years old- powder blue with blue leather interior, 331
Hemi and dual exhaust) and any pictures would have been black-and-white.
However the fact that I'm blonde haired and green eyed does indeed
suggest that a certain pinkness of the posterior was likely when I was
first brought home from the hospital.
