bored, so i detailed the car
summer is coming fast, so i figured it was time again for another round of clay+polish+wax and a couple rounds of spray detailer to remove excess wax residue.



























thanks for looking

thanks! here is a pic i took of it (also after a detail) in my old apartment. looks NBP from an angle doesnt it?



I use Meguires claybar, the polish wax that came with it and top it off with the NXT liquid wax. then the spray detailer i use is the Ultimate Quick Detailer (black bottle), also by meguire's. havent let me down so far

i used pretty much off-the-shelf products:

clay = meguires clay bar
polish = polish wax that came with clay
final coats of wax = meguires NXT liquid
spray detailer = meguires ultimate quick detailer (black bottle)

Great looking car as always!

Next time try NXT liquid wax 2.0 and I'm sure you will love it. It has the same property of UQD (ultimate quick detailer): water beaded property! Very slick!
