I like washing and detailing my car too, but living in an APT that's no longer possible. Luckily there is a carwash on the opposite side of my block. I have it vacuumed and Klasse polished by hand every 7 to 14 days. Every few months I have them clean the underside and apply Klasse All in One by machine. Whenever I drop off my car I put protectors on the seats and steering wheel to keep them pristine. I keep them out of my interior except for vacuuming, and I do the leather, carbon fiber, rubber and plastic bits myself every other month with specialized German products. One benefit of living in the tropics is that labor is affordable. I pay the carwash $11 and tip the same amount to Felix, the guy who washes my cars. I washed it yesterday and below are some pics taken this afternoon, after driving the car around yesterday and today...
It's still shiny after accumulating dust over the past 24 hours.
I have been looking for an atlas grey car with these wheels on them forever. Do you have any pics in the sun and which wheels are they please.
Thanks
Atlas grey is a funky color to photograph. It can look black or bluish grey. In these pics there is plenty of sun and the high contrast makes the car look black. In real life I find the paint looks less black than shown, and the wheels pop more since they are actually black.
I treat myself (my cars) to a once a year professional mobile detail that come to my house making it very convenient. The rest of the year I just do touchless washes and maintain the interior nice and clean. Both cars are drivers and being enjoyed throughout the year.
I detail my own car like most of rennlisters, when I need some type of paint correction or if it has too many swirls, I asked my brother in law to help. He does it for a hobby and does a great job.
I have a really good local mobile detail guy. About $30-35 buck for a lot better job than I could do. Here is what happened 5 minutes after I left my garage from a previous really nice detail. In general I am a bird lover but..........

Kidding aside, that is some of the best looking cabinetry I have ever seen!
