I agree, the Stingray looks cool. This one sounds as good as it looks too.

The owner lives in Qatar and says that truck like mine are incredibly popular. That is old school Chevy 4x4's with straight axles under the front, lots of lift and huge tires. He says the most popular truck in Qatar is the 1973 to 1978 Chevy 1/2 Ton Stepside Shorty, which is also one of my favorite body styles just hard to find.
I'll see if he can send me some pictures when he gets back to Qatar.

Yes. In part because it's faster to knock out the entire car at once but also because I'm lazy. I don't have any problems at all wiping the coating "high points" off after applying to the entire car.
Keep in mind we use the RDM to inspect our towels and then once the towels pass inspection we use careful, slow wiping technique wearing microfiber gloves. Using this technique anything is easy to wipe off.

Awesome, I'm looking forward to adding this coating to my arsenal. I knew I should have picked it up with the recent VIP discount a week ago, doh.

Re: How to detail a 2014 Corvette Stingray
I'd like knowing some more, about AG, and how prospective customers meet, and greet you folks, how they make arrangements for such work?
I myself often feels like a little insonspicuous fly on a dog turd here, but then again, I've "did my time".
That time, must be called "carnauba penitentiary" LOL

Re: How to detail a 2014 Corvette Stingray
Looks great Mike. Its kinda funny I read this today, went to test drive one and come to find out the nearest vett is 250 miles away, all sold out!
Just to be clear, between the lotion and paint coating you did not wipe it down?

Re: How to detail a 2014 Corvette Stingray
My Stingray is almost to CA after months of waiting. I an terrified of putting that paint coating on and messing up the car, despite the fact the product sounds awesome and I would love to use it!
I had planned on using:
Pinnacle Souveran Paintwork Cleansing Lotion
CG or Griots Sealant
Pinnacle Souveran Paste Wax
Pinnacle Souveran Crystal mist
Thoughts? Much appreciate, car master!!

Re: How to detail a 2014 Corvette Stingray
With the line up of products you used, seems like a crème de la crème of exactly what you "personally" wanted to use.
I'm coming away with the thought, that you think mighty highly of the Pinnacle Gold Label products on hand at AG?
I'll be showcasing these products myself when the weather turns better here.
I'd like doing a friend's Red Vette here, a gorgeous 2000, very clean, wish he'd sell me the car in fact, it's up to my acceptance of beautiful, and restorable to a showroom perfect ride.
My Tahoe will be going the gauntlet of primo goodies here.
Stay tuned, I hope I will give a worthy account, and small town boy review of such goodies very soon.
