Just detailed my car.

Well I spent this beautiful Saturday morning, washing, clay barring and waxing my car. I think it came out great for the amateur detailer I am.

Paint feels like glass again

Here's some pics I thought I'd share:

Thanks again Sharona

I'm most likely going to give it one more waxing in a month to give it protection through summer.

I get around 500-550 kms on a full tank (approx. 55 litres).
Premium gas +91 octane.

Good idea, Daniel.
Want to keep that red as sleek as can be, especially after the attention you gave to the sweet detailing.

Yep thats right Sharona

I'll probably wax it again in several weeks, and that's it for the rest of the season. Gotta keep that shine!

It's a pleasure to drive when it's like that, feels like it's new all over again.

Gotta love it when it's shining on the exterior AND the interior is clean...it was sweeeeeet!
