Hi all, figured i would start a thread about what you did to your Ls460 today.
It is highly popular on the GS forum and I think we can use some good vibes with fun stuff with our Ls460's


Last week I bough Adams Glass sealant and went to the car wash last night

Prepped the window, Clayed the window with clay bar and clay lube, re cleaned window with non ammonia window cleaner
applied the sealant, buffed with window microfiber..
have to say remarkable results looks amazing and from what i know will repel water great.

Really finishes off a clean car, clean tire and wheels and the details with the glass finish it

 

LOL @ 341 views and no posts. I wish I could contribute something interesting. All I've done is clean off love bugs since I purchased mine.

 

cool, muddy,

ill add one
put adams, liquid ceramic paste on car.

first washed, clayed, IPA wipe down and applied

off the hook shine and beading. I would say as good of a shine as pinnacle souveragn carnuba or better gloss/shine
now that is saying something

its synthetic they said should last 4 times as long as carnuba in heat and sun.
amazing product for 26$
put it on my wife alpine white bmw two weeks ago with also great results.
i spoke to the rep today and asked what are the downsides to a great carnuba
he said your starting to understand why sio2 / ceramic waxes are gaining momentum there is no downside.

it literally was like a sheet of glass

 

I've got detail products galore. The other half other of the supplies are in the basement storage shelves!!
I haven't had time to do some details for my tiny side business. The ceramic stuff looks interesting but I refuse to buy another detail product until I put a dent in my supply. Right now it's all for personal use! My vehicles stay indoors most of the time so the wax/sealant hold up for a very long time.

*My contribution to the thread:
I just had my rocker panels refinished. There were pitted badly and had some curb scrapes on them. Took them off to save on labor and have my paint shop do them for $180 total. It brought out her beauty even more.

 

Impressive amount of product!
Changed reverse lights to LED today.

jlaw impressive closet, i thought i saw a finger in back, lol

quick question how is that collinite insulator wax
heard good things about it in marine world

 

Collinite was the first non auto parts retail wax that I was introduced to by my friend's father. That was over 20 years ago He's still kicking at 82 years old and still does a few details from time to time !

It is great wax for the price and has held up well vs all the new synthetic waxes and sealants out there. I continue to use it on my car as a coating over expensive sealants, rim protection and for budget details. It is a sentimental favorite that I will continue to order.

 

Oooh! I did something to my (2) LS460s last night.

1. The registration came in for my Deep Sea Mica, so I replaced the temp plate with the permanent plate
2. Removed the stupid "blind spot" mirrors from the door mirrors that should be used as blind spot mirrors
3. Removed the stick-on dealer tags from the Crafted Line and the Deep Sea Mica

I think I will have a chance this weekend to continue cleaning the paint on the Crafted Line. I hope to complete IronX and claybar from the front doors back. I did the front of the car two weeks ago. I'll follow that with some minor paint correction (rock chips and scratches), then compound, polish, and silicone sealant (The Last Coat). I expect that to take a few weekends, though.

 

muddy if you like to share post some pics so we can see ride before and after
cheer

 

Thanks & I 'm going to order a set of these bulbs now for both of my vehicles! Thanks

 

Will do. I'm impressed with the amount of shine with all the fine scratches in the paint. I don't know that pictures will do the finished product any justice.

 

Replaced transmission filter and fluid, replaced differential oil. 72,000 miles

 

At a Lexus dealership? I need to get my trans filter and fluid replaced. I'm at 98K miles. Did you notice a difference?

 

I did it myself at a DIY garage with a lift!

No diff nor did I expect too.

 

Lexus and Toyota quoted me over $500.00, no thank you!
