Spent the entire day cleaning the car. Wash, claybar, polish, and waxed the exterior. And cleaned and polished the interior. Here's how it came out. I think I did really well. Hope you enjoy.

Hood

Side

Back

Before and after polishing

All clean


Let me know how I did!

have Armor All car wash my dad bought me for Christmas, so I gave it a shot. Worked really well. I can't remember the clay bar system I used. And I used the turtle wax Ice Polish/Wax. Its nice, you can use it on a hot car, and in sunlight. I tried to put it under a tree, and damn helicopters and dust kept falling on it And you can use it on plastic. It made the stock SC grill and the plastic around the side mirrors look fantastic. But it came out good.

The turtle wax Ice is great for a black car. it gets so damn hot. last time I used regular wax and it was a pain in the ass.

Around 3ish. That included a beer break, and the time I spent on the tires and wheels that I apparently didn't transfer the pics from my camera now that I think about it. Ah well. So 3-3 1/2ish

you only spent a day on it? try spending three (on a 10 year old paint job none the less)

looks really good though! when your turle wax ice start's dying on your plastic piece's try using Mother's fade to black...also removes old wax residue...
