Pictures after using Detailed Image products

Well, I finally washed the car after having it for ~45 days. The car stays in the garage and hasn't been driving in the rain. These were the products that I got from them.

Washing and Driving Starter Package
Menzerna PO106ff Ceramic Clear Coat Polish
Chemical Guys Jet Seal 109
Chemical Guys 50/50 Limited Series Concourse Paste Wax
Bunch of Microfiber towels

Here are some pictures of the car after I put everything on it. There was a 24 hour delay between the Jet Seal and Wax. Pictures were taken from the garage so you can see how shiny the paint is with only a fluorscent garage bulb. I always handwax so everything was easy to me.

Thanks a bunch Greg from Detailed Image.

I don't know how you can go 45 days without washing it, even if it is garage kept.

No you're normal. The waxing twice may be a bit much though.

I'll take some full shots tomorrow. Unfortunately, it has rained almost every weekend so I haven't been driving the car too much, hence I still only have like 800 miles. So basically the car has sat in the garage for most of the days. I definitely didn't touch the car because it had lots of dust on it as I knew if I did try to just wipe it down, the dust particles would scratch the car.
