You had me at donkey punch....

Really not a lot to see if you aren't into restoring old cars. But there can be some good deals on supplies - tape, paint guns, POR-15, maybe even some detailing things!

I think I must just be following you around the country, zoomzoom....

I know that the average car used to take me about 7 hours to wash, clay, do paint correction, and wax (or seal) and that was just for the outside. Now I can do the interior and exterior in about 6 hours on the same size car. However, if a car is bad enough that I have to make multiple passes...

Nice lookin car there! How do you like the Outlook? My wife wants to get one but I don't know if it would be powerful enough to tow around stuff, like my Chevelle on a trailer. Any experience hauling things with it?

Doh! I miss that show...I would go twice a year to get stuff for my Chevelle. If you go, say hi to the Tri-state Chevelle club for me ;)

I think any of the products on this site will involve less work than sanding and respraying to restore the look of the paint....!

What about a Noble? Top Gear tested one and it turned faster laps than both the Ferrari 430 and the new Corvette Z06....

Looks good! I'll admit, when I first read the topic I had no idea what you were talking about, and it sounded kind of dirty

I've never used any so I can't comment. Couldn't you at least take it to one of the coin op washes and hose it down, and then pull off to the side and do some of the rest (applying sealant, etc)?

My car was at the body shop to get some paintwork done and I noticed when it came back that there were several spots where it felt like there was no wax left on it. The paint felt very "dry" instead of smooth and when I looked closely there were some patterns kind of like what you show - almost...

In Chicago you are going to have to wash it eventually, just to take care of the winter salt!

Did you go with the washless just because there was no dirt to speak of? Looks great - what's your take on these fairly minor corrections?

Looks good! When are you going to try out the Surf City wash? Bonifax, I think that you can use the same shampoo if you have some sort of sealant on the wheels. I've noticed that once the wheels have been waxed it takes very little to clean them. Starting from scratch will require some wheel...

Even though it's really hard to get that wet look on silver or flake, you can get a very clean, crisp finish and you definitely have that. That looks just as impressive!

I don't think you will need to wash your car as much as you think - the sealant will protect in between washes. You may just need to apply sealant more often than every 3-4 months.

I park less than 1/4 mile from the ocean every day at work. You can see the salt buildup on the windows, especially in the morning and evening when the sun is low. I generally do a full detail on the car and then wash it every 1-2 weeks after that. As long as you keep protection on the paint...

I've used Megs Ultra Suds, Zaino Wash, and the Surf City and the Surf City and Zaino seem to be about equal in terms of suds and slickness. I alternate between using either one, since I have both, but the Surf City is definitely cheaper to use on a regular basis. I don't really know how the...

They just redid a whole bunch of stuff on the site - maybe it got cut in the overhaul unintentionally?

My hands still smell like a combination of Killer Chrome and Z6 Gloss Enhancer from earlier today...
