detailed my GAGT this weekend. I owned this car from 02-06 then bought it back like 3 or 4 months ago with only 20K more miles and in just as good of shape as i sold it to him. But i got it for a STEAL!!!!

Washed with DP

Clay'd with Pinnacle Clay and DP Universal Clay Lube

Waxed with DodoJuice Hard Candy. To wax the entire car, i used maybe .5oz of wax, maybe a little less).

No before pics. This car still really needs the M105/205 treatment, but this is a
gooooood start!! 105/205 will hopefully get done this year.

The links below the pics are for the bigger pics. (this thread was copied over from another forum i posted it on, thats the reason for the links under the pics)

I love this color!!!

i was lucky enough to receive this as a free gift a while back. luckily it doesnt take much to do the car!! Just like DP MaxWax. No way i could justify the price between my DP MaxWax and the price of this, in the same size tub as DP.

Looks real nice! :xyxthumbs

I'm not sure it needs the 105/205 treatment though.

:iagree: I can't see any etching/marring in the pictures, unless Dodo has heavy concealers and they'll show up with time...

Great job. I've always like that color as well. It looks way better than most Grand Ams you still see on the road.

thansk! yah i hear yah on the other grand ams. My buddies has a bunch of rust under his gas lid from letting gas drop on it all the time. I go straight to the pressure wash if that happens and spray all around there when that happens.
