GreyXR6_Turbo Member 60 Member For: 16y 8m Posted 13/09/08 11:04 PM Share Posted 13/09/08 11:04 PM Gday all, I just bought a new xr6 turbo from a dealership in sydney. I was offered the paint protection crap from the start, for $1700, of course I refused it as I was already over budget and it sounded like a bit of a scam. However, now I was just asking advice as to what is the best way I can preserve the paint on this car. (it is ego in colour). Does anyone know a comprehensive guide to detailing a car on the net which they have used and it works for them? I will be driving the car on dirt roads occasionally and mostly be parked outside, and I wanted some form of protection which will protect from bird crap and that sort of thing. Ive heard that pinnicle make a good wax etc. I dont really paying a bit more for something that will do the job a bit better if you know what I mean. Any help apprenciated. I did try to do a search on here, but couldnt find much, correct me if I am wrong.
