It's a pleasure to own such a lovely car. I enjoy cleaning it weekly and trying to keep on top of the paint as much as I can. In the past few days I stripped it all back to the paint using Bilt Hamber snowfoam, Valet Pro citrus cleaner, Farecla prep shampoo and a Farecla clay mitt. I then washed it with Z7 and dried it off. I had recently bought a few Blackfire products so thought it was an ideal time to try out their system. I applied BF Gloss Enhancing Polish by machine which was pretty easy to do. It's great stuff which is very easy to work with a DA. After buffing I applied BF All Paint Protection by hand. It's a big old lump so this took quite a while but the paint looked great afterwards. After a cup of tea (England) I applied BF Polymer Spray which took about 20 mins. This really made the dark metallic paint look pin sharp and really deep with gloss. I'd have liked to have finished off with some BF paste wax but I didn't have any so I used my trusted Autoglym HD Wax. The finish was, in my opinion, superb. I gave the interior a spruce up using a few Autoglym products and then took these pics. All in all I spent around 8 hours on my birthday working on my pride and joy. I hope you enjoy the car as much as I do.

Love the "cup of tea (England)" part. Car looks amazing though, better than it did coming from the factory. What better way to spend your birthday than a nice relaxing detail. Very well done .
