So i was in the mids of making my web-site when i was looking for photos of cars that i have done and amazingly they are almost gone. But i came accross these.

This is a car ive done awhile ago, and about the 20th or so car i used a PC on.

I used megs nxt wash
mothers clay bar
megs polish
zymol wax

Took me around 5 hours with a helper... Prolly would have taken 3 if it wasnt a friend of mines car and my helper didnt keep distracting me... heh... wont get into that. Anyways to the pictures....

all and all i have done much better on older cars. But this thing started sexy with very little swirl... very fine scratches that came out with out even trying. this is my buddies car and i can't wait to get to drive... detail it again. its my first post in show n shine so... let me know what you think..

Wow, I like the "random place" and the garage shots. What kind of Zymol wax was used? That white is so bright and looks wet in the 2nd gas station pic.

To be honest i looked thru my belongings and its gone. It was liquid, and was like 29.99 awhile back. but i remembered what it did to my moms old grand am and had to use it on the sti. Im going to have to try to find more of it.

The only liquid Zymol wax I've seen is a cleaner wax that is OTC.
