True Believer of Clay bar =)

So since today was the first day of spring, I decided to take the CL out of winter hibernation and give her a spring cleaning. I washed, then removed existing wax, clay bar'd, polished, and then waxed. Clay Bar works miracles and I recommend it to all those who don't already use it, smooth as silk now enjoy!

daaaamn man that's ridiculous! how do you like the gold class paste wax? and is that endurance stuff for the tires any good? I used to Meguiars NXT paste wax but it would leave white stuff in the cracks, so i switched to the liquid NXT wax. It doesn't rub off like the paste wax so it's a little harder to get off, but it doesn't leave any white stuff

Thanx man, yeah everything was done by hand. And it took a hellll of a long time but all worth it. My paint is so smooth like i just bought it from the dealership. Your car already looks so nice and your paint looks mint, can't wait to see it after!
