ME EITHER!!!!!

There''s a sort of utopian feeling that comes over me when I give my ride a wash.

I wonder how I''ll feel while applying Wet Paint...

It was a cloudy day, but this will give you an idea of the shine this stuff can give to silver.  Mine is called Classic Silver Metallic and the tC only gets 1 coat of clear from the factory ..... those b@s+@rd$!!!!!

Boy, that should stop those with silver cars from doubting what WP can do. Very nice and deep reflections.

Thanks Rick!  Once I get all of the paint defects fixed, I''''m really going to go to town with the claybar!  I''''m even debating if I want to put myself through the agony called Zaino.

I''m not sure, but it was a lot easier to get a nice shine on the Accord than the tC ..... then again, it was black.
