Dang Jarrod, even the bottom of the car is immaculate. I'm so envious.

Would you like to come down and help me clean up my mess when it's all done from the shop?

Sure, just have plenty of Formula 88 or Simple Green on hand - well that and beverages.

Here's some more D90 goodness. James Morrison is working on a 928 video montage for the OCIC, and these photos were taken for that effort (along with engine and interior pics).

928GT meets Columbia 400. Two great speed machines.

Jarrod what do you use on your tires to clean and condition them?

Afshin- You would ask. I say that because I bought it YEARS ago, transferred it to a large pump bottle, and threw away the label. Doh! I'm "pretty sure" it's 3M Rubber Treatment & Tire Dressing. It has the color and consistency of vegetable oil. It was purchased from Larry Reynolds of Car Care Specialties and was one of his recommended products. It's still referenced in his "how to" articles, but I don't think it is produced any longer and he lists it as being out of stock. Don't confuse it with 3M's current Tire Restorer product which contains silicone (bad).

I like this stuff because it has a nice satin look after it is absorbed, and does not turn the rubber brown over time. In fact one of my tires has a yellow dot on it from the manufacturer, and it's still nice and clean.

I googled this stuff and it seems existing stock may still be available through other outlets. Probably should buy up a bunch, as it is by far my favorite tire dressing ever. Another product I can't find anymore is "Back to Black", which was incredible on the rear wing. I still have a dwindling supply of it and will be very sad when it runs out.

Roger turned me on to this stuff. One coat gives it a new tire look w/o the shine. The 2nd coat gives it a nice sheen to it w/o looking like it has ArmorAll on it.

Thanks Jarrod. Do you wash your tires?

Sean how does the product look after several applications? Does the product sling onto the paint or leave streaks on the tire?

Nope, doesn't leave anything, it's a thin film, not tacky. I've been using it for a couple of years now.

I did not use it on this tire. Have not washed the car since I got it back.

Just finished the painted rear wing (fibreglass) and GTS mirrors. I am really happy with the pearl color match.
