When I come back home to Michigan for the cruise your car better look as good as the day it left my drive way, or else!!!!! :cheers:

I am so happy to be back home from Alpena, Michigan, it was cold and nasty and happy to be back in my 70+ degree weather. And oh yeah welcome to forum. Mike...
 
I went to Target last night to get a couple things to wash it (micro fiber towles and what not) Car looks pretty good today. It's right next to impossible to dodge all the water puddles right now because everything is melting/thawing.
 
The car looks great! You are lucky to have a good mentor. Welcome to the AG addiction site!

You made a comment about your 4 year old car looking so good. That is one of the great things about detailing. I get compliments on my car all the time, people can't believe it is a 2003. They just don't understand that there car could look good too if it was cleaned up! The downside is that people comment on how clean my car is and I'm thinking "no it's not! It needs to be washed" We AG addicts have a different set of standards.

Keep detailing and posting!

We wanted to take before photos but, jumped right to cleaning and polishing and never looked back. The car was full of swirls, scratches and dull looking all around. Ryan and I both were suprised and pleased with the end results (95 percent of the paint blemishes are now a distant memory). I clayed it with Pinnacle poly clay and could not believe the amount of crap it pulled out of the clear and how smooth paint felt after. I am just happy that I was able to rub off some of my detailing OCD on to another person and create a new AG'er. Mike...
