| I washed, buffed, and waxed the hell out of my car yesterday and I am pretty impressed at the shine it has now. I used this stuff called Turtle Wax black box that is made for black cars and I love it. It hid all the swirl marks and makes the paint look wet while giving a nice deep shine....   This stuff is like a 7 step process and can get messy (the wax is black and i had to use gloves) but it is WELL worth it. I think I found my new wax for sure. |

| Jon let me know what you think about the clear seal. I have been reading about it and I am very curious about it. I need to order detailer, wheel stuff and leather cleaner from them at least.
Looks great Joey! _________________ Crystal Speed never killed anyone, suddenly becoming stationary, that's what gets you.  |

no idea what it is made of but its a polymer protectant with uv blockers to put over detail jobs to last up to 9 months. 1/4oz. can do an entire car and it can be used over other peoples products too. wipe it on sparingly with a light mist on the pannel and grab a beer cause your done. you don't wipe it off or anything. its a top coat to any detal job.
its in a 6oz. bottle for 30 bux so it better be damned good. lol.

| I rubbed 2 kinds of the prep shit into mine the other day and then the clay bar. put on polish. Waxed it up and it's ready. I was always leary of the clay bar. It seemed like it would be hard to do. I did it in half an hour or less. Piece of cake and did the job, too. Paint is smoooooth. |
