Pics after last night's wash/claybar/wax-a-thon
I was up until 4:30am this morning giving the ride it's first clay/wax job. Next time I'll go with Zaino instead of Meguiar's.



















And one with the wife's Jeep

From a stop? No
From a roll? Yes and it was no contest. The Benz immediately walked.

I pissed off a gen1 Viper GTS one day in the Jeep. We took off from a stoplight and he didn't pass me until ~100-105mph. He wouldn't look at me at the next stoplight.

Looks good! Just curious as to what made you change your mind from Meguiar's to Zaino?

I'm interested in the multiple stage process and I've heard so many good reviews about it.
