After setting up for our Detailing 101 and 102 Classes this weekend I wiped the rest of the Cadillac down and then clayed all the painted panels and stainless and chrome trim.
That's a lot of real-estate to clay!
Just claying alone has already dramatically increased the gloss because claying restores smoothness and gloss comes from smoothness...

Shane, that Caddy is a '59; the tail fins are a dead giveaway.
On a different note, I know it's just part of Yancy's gear, but don't you guys know opening an umbrella indoors is bad luck? :laughing:

I'll be buffing the rest of the 1959 Cadillac out tonight and Thursday night if anyone local wants to come by and lend a hand or maybe learn how to restore a show car finish to a classic car...
