Thanks! It was winter and I couldn't drive it anyways. So why not.

Wait, you're in Virginia right? Is there a particular reason you don't drive it in the winter?

While living in North Carolina, I couldn't really find a reason not to drive cars year round there. Unless your way north and get more snow/inclement weather than NC.

We get snow and the roads get salty. And I use the Lexus as a winter car so I don't have to swap tires on the Merc.

Uggghhh snow and salt and nightmares for guys that care about paint. Now I understand.

Can you image a sheet of ice sliding off a dirty hood on a black car? Thinking about that clear coat gives me chill.

Wow, great job. Been watching the Ammo videos for years now but have never been game enough to attempt something of this scale. Seeing your results and my car also being black I'm inspired to follow suit. Job well done.
