pictures over on the Bonneville forum, I thought I would share a few shots of my car after it's spring detail. Optimum Polish via LC white pad XMT Glaze Nattys Blue (x2) Now on to the next car.....

This paint is crazy. It seems to marr pretty easy, yet it's hard at the same time because I'm having a hard time getting rid of the scratches in the finish.

I don't think it's from an oak. We have oaks in our yard at home, and I've never seen any before. I don't know what they are. I park about 20 yards from the nearest trees, and they are mostly pines. I think they might be from the apple trees along the property, but those are like 200 feet...

Two days in a row this week I came out to my car after work to find some sort of little yellow leaf type things on my car. They are like a half inch long, and very narrow, with the sides curled like a cone. The problem is they have something very sticky on them. They were all glued to my...

Looks nice from the front. It looks a bit out of place on the side though since the rest of the car isn't that low.

Well the suv it was used on is dark blue, and actually it has never been polished yet, just clayed. Really the differences were so subtle though. Personally I don't see how you can really give a good review of looks based on a quarter of a hood. So I don't know how valuable the test...

I'm not as experienced as you guys with regards to using different waxes, but I liked both samples. I compared them with Nattys Blue and thought they performed pretty close. Nattys had the slight edge in look, but I think the 263 felt slicker and removed a little easier.

I used plenty of lube. That picture was from when I did it during washing, and I used a lot of suds. It was odd because both times the clay barely even grabbed at the paint, yet when I dried the panels they looked like that.

Wow that's awesome! My wife's Mountaineer really ticks me off because of the little round holes that I can't get clean of brake dust. I finally got a brush that can get in there, but the dust is so bad it doesn't get it clean. I just sent in my test results yesterday, so I'll be eagerly...

Here is what the Clay Magic stuff did to my black car last fall. I thought maybe it was because I clayed during washing, but then I took another piece of the same clay (cut it in thirds) a couple weeks ago and used the lube and had the same thing happen. Not sure if it's normal or if it's a...

Wow, you would think that place would have a 10 foot fence with barbed wire.

I think I would go for a last years model camera on the cheap. I have last years model of the FZ8 (FZ7) that BetaB mentioned and I really like it a lot.

No I didn't contact them Nica. I just used the online ordering system to check pricing and shipping costs. They also have a New Zealand site, but that only had New Zealand as a shipping option.

If you didn't think of it, turn the wheels on the car before you start. I just got a wheel cleaning mitt type product at Target that I'm going to try on the wheel wells. It has MF on one side, and some sort of rough netting surface on the other side. I think it was a Viking product.

First order: 2 LC orange pads 2 LC white pads 2 LC gray pads Optimum HC and Polish Nattys Blue 5" backing plate EX-P 3 free Cobra Deluxe Jr. MF's My wow was when I took my new PC, an orange pad and the Hyper Compound and polished half the hood on my '96 Cutlass. I had claybarred it before so...

Check Autochem in Australia. I didn't buy any, but went partially through the order process and it was $25 plus $10 shipping.

Well I was looking at their site again, and notice they only have one wax. So unless they are looking to change the formulation, I would think they are testing for something new? I like having a good smelling wax. I love Nattys Blue. :)

So has anyone figured out what waxes these are if they aren't new? I can't place the smell of the 263, but it's pretty bad. The 201 smells like crayons.

Takes me a good 30-45 minutes to do one step on my hood with a PC and Optimum.

Psshhhh, that looks pretty dang good for 12 years old!! I see a lot of cars younger than that with rust all over the place.
