Newest Pictures of my car..Woo Hoo
It finally stopped raining so I washed, buffed, polished, and waxed my car this morning. It looked so good that I had to take some pictures.

I picked up some eagle1 aluminum/chrome wheel cleaners which EATS thru brakedust... add water and wipe... and you got a nice shine on the wheels.
what polish did you use doug? your car looks black and not tecite grey in those pics
also what kind of applicator do u use to apply your wax

Here's the wax I use. The detail shop I used to work at went out of business so I took a little suvineer. It's 18 dollars at the store for the 22 oz bottles and I have a whole gallon.

For the paint or the wheels?
They are 18 Inch Eurotech wheels. I don't use any kind of protection for the wheels. They are powdercoated so I'm not really worried. I just clean them all the time.

now we know why they went out of business doug...
anyhow i posted the pics of the lip spoiler. i didnt take the pics my cuz did but he didnt sit it on the right place and it didnt reach the ends of the trunk as a result. anyhow u'll get the idea of how it'd look on our car. its not mounted or painted bro.
later and no more taking stores out of business man.

Zymol is good as long as you don't use the cleaner wax. It is bad about leaving swirls in the clearcoat. I highly recommend those 3 step waxes. Cleaner, polish, and wax. If you try the three step process I promise you will never use just wax again. It takes a little longer but if you have a buffer the results are so much better. After doing it your paint will feel like glass.

ok i just returned that zymol cleaner wax I bought
I picked up all 3 mothers.
(phase 1) pre-wax cleaner
(phase 2) polish
(phase 3) caranuba wax
they are actually really nice smelling (especially the wax, smells like bananas) and apply on real easy...
I'm finished with half my car and i'll have some pics up when im totally done.
