Thank You! I've never heard of Aerolon TechShine, but will tell you that I'm going to give it a try. It appears to be pretty easy to use too.
That's one of the best combinations that you can have in that it's easy to apply and it works..not too mention that it;s priced well too.
Thanks again!
Yeah as a professional detailer I was very skeptical of the claims but believe it or not it works pretty well. I'd never abandon the traditional layers of sealant and wax but to button up a detail I always use it as it will coat and seal all the glass and weather stripping. Basically catches everything as well as add to the final shine of the topcoat. Works like a charm.
Aha, Jason, I see your grand plans for the car, I guess you want to get maximum value for the 2010 LS. If you really want to preserve the car in pristine condition, since everything (work, school) is so close to home, why not just drive golf carts everywhere??
Because my son uses it daily to drive to school. He'd rather not take the Camry i bought him, because the girls like to play bumper cars in the parking lot. And because if i took it to work, there's no direct path on the golf cart and it may take like 45 minutes (not sure).
Leon - I'll check with the locals. But for the next couple few weekeneds, I'm blown away. BMX, dog n pony show for my sister, go get and trailer home (my free) car #6, I've organized an ATV-ETB (ATV Engineering Team Building) event with my coworkers for the last Saturday in March, etc. But I'll send out either a text or email and get something together. Maybe another roll up to Caffeine & Octane.
NJ is hitting with record high temp today . Decided to take my car to work and took some pictures;
Great looking car! I see someone is going around and locating LS' then paining murals on the hoods! Apparently, you and Dr. Jekyll are the most recent victims!

I noticed the same thing CRowe! The culprit seems to like trees too!

Absolutely gorgeous car, satiger!! I love those split-spoke wheels. IMO, they will look even better chromed to match the door and window trim. That's on my list for the next year!
Decided to finally post a pic of the big 'ol girl born in 2008 Not a popular color (Golden Almond Metallic), but one which I have really gotten to like - not too light, not too dark, most would call it "an old persons" color for a car. Gets lots of positive comments on the color actually. Interior is cashmere (i think thats what its called). Has the semi aniline leather upgrade, ML sound, heated and cooled rear, reclining rear seats, fancier headliner material, leather door panels. One owner car, they were 82 years old when they traded it on a RX350. Yep, originally driven by a little old lady and old man!

Beautiful car, zracer. How many miles on it when you bought it (last year)? You definitely found a rare keeper car. Did you have an inside track on the car? Looks like it is fully loaded. AWD? I love the chrome wheels. Please post some pics of the interior also!
Thanks for compliments comotiger. Bought it March 2016 and it had 77K miles on it and not AWD, glad as I didnt want AWD - got 4wd Z71 Chevy for bad weather. Funny you ask if I had an inside connection - as the old saying goes "better to be lucky than good" applies here. Looked for about 8 months at every website on the old interweb and was getting a bit disappointed because everything decent was like 1000 miles away. Decided to look at Lexus of Peoria website on a Monday and said "new listing", no pictures posted yet. Called them, asked salesperson to walk around car while on phone and drilled him for every detail and question I could come up with. Told him I was unable to get there (4 hours away) until Saturday and asked him if he would hold it. To my surprise he said yes........but he called me everyday that week asking if I was still coming as there were 5 other people that had put down money to be next in line if the guy ahead of them backed out (thats his story anyway). So, the car was everything it was hyped up to be and I paid cash and drove it home. I believe I paid close to top dollar - $23K, BUT it is a true cream puff with all service records up-to-date and I knew this was the one I had been searching for! I can post up some interior pics, but honestly, It looks BRAND SPANKING new inside.
Crazy to thing the original owners paid almost $2,500 upgrade for those Telious wheels - but hey, I like them too!

Lol! Yeah that Hawaii sunshine on Dr Jekyll brings out that deep black! Beautiful car. Don't you just love the LS. My wife just took mine out for the first time today and loved our new LS.

Indeed that HI Sun is something else! And a huge congrats to you and your wife regarding your new purchase, that's awesome!!!
You won't hear me disagreeing with you regarding admiration for the LS, as I think the vehicle is bar-none a remarkable car!
You and the wife enjoy the LS and congrats once again!

Thanks AC. Mine came with 5 spoke wheel but I replaced that with split seven spoke wheel mainly for bit of sportier look and more importantly it was constructed as noise cancelling wheel. First introduced in 600s and then became an option for 2013+ models. You may find more about these noise cancelling wheels at http://www.lexus.com/documents/broch...S-Brochure.pdf and http://pressroom.lexus.com/releases/...ry+quality.htm.
"NOISE-REDUCTION WHEELS The LS is the first Lexus to feature noise-reduction wheels, which force resonant noise into an opening where the sympathetic vibrations cancel each other out and significantly reduce road noise. This means that instead of being distracted by unwanted sounds, you get to hear the things you actually want to hear, like the precisely tuned engine note or the pristine clarity of the audio system. "
I too prefer bit of chrome touch to match door and trim. However would prefer tone between hyper silver (this wheel color) and chrome. When doing chrome plating on wheels, can the color tone be controlled?.
