Default Waxed & ready for the Autocross tomorrow

Spend some time today cleaning my CAB. I used Meguiar's Quick Detailer to remove bugs & debris, washed the car, then applied Meguiar's Deep Crystal Carnauba Wax. The results are impressive to me, and I enjoyed every moment.

Todd, looks good. Hopefully you won't find yourself in any dirt fields any time soon.

Spent about an hour cleaning my car earlier today, took it out for a little spin in the sun, half way through it started downpouring. Had to clean it off again once the rain stopped.

Big improvement, we were wondering what color your car was yesterday, now I see it's gorgeous Meteor Grey

You guys are gonna make me look bad tomorrow. However, in a showing of utter commitment to outdoor black car ownership, I contemplated buying a chainsaw for about an hour to take care of that tree situation.

Beautiful job Terrific color, too.

I hope that's not the sheen of tire shine, though... speaking as a tech inspector who has to grab your wheels to check the bearings, PLEASE don't use tire shine!

I'd be out there waxing my p-car today, except I'm shoulder-deep replacing the head-gasket in one of my other cars (94 camaro)..
