If I happened to be flying by, and seeing your car shine out in the open, I'd just have to perch overhead and admire how newer than new it appears. 
Wow, that WDP paint looks ... so good
. . . ugh 
. . . it makes me wanna . . . uh oh! Something's brewing down below! CRAP 
!
Oh man, all over your roof and hood. Sorry bro, I know you must of spent hours detailing and for me just to come and do-do on your pride-n-joy like that...
Eh
. Nice and clean. So shiny!

Thanks for all the comments!! It really did not take that long.
It only took about 4 hours. I did it all by hand. I might use my dad's orbiter to make things easier and quicker...

So, geese are plentiful up there? They must $hit like hail. Now, I've never had any experience with white-colored cars...hehe...but maybe the flock thought your WDP TL was mother goose!

they probably just saw this big shiny white object below and thought it was a toilet bowl...

White is a tough nut to make pop but you did a nice job. You may want to try another reflection shot like the flowers but wait till the sun is shining on the opposite side of the car. The flowers will pick up the sunlight and the reflection will be much deeper.

Nice shine, but I personally don't like your wheel design. Why do they look so small? Anyhow, you've moved on to faster and more German things... congrats on the S4! That's an amazing car.

Nice job! I have a WDP too.
NXT is good stuff, surprisingly enough for off-the-shelf wax. I found that it attracts dust quickly though (at least out here in the desert).
I've started using Klasse AIO and Sealer Glaze on mine and LOVE the results. Super smooth and lasts a long time. It's acrylic so that might be the difference on not attracting dust and lasting a long time.

Do you hang out with the 10 or so other NJ TL owners?
