I simply liked it! I think I was 15 or 16 when I started liking the process of washing, vacuuming, waxing. My Father showed Me how He had to buff our Cadillac(Hershey brown, LOL) to protect the finish with Meguiar's wax. Little by little, I started trying things! Buffing, shampooing, door jambs, engines. It's a very cool process. LOTS of work...but worth it when everything is clean and protected. Hammered cars are the best/worst. You start with a train wreck and finish with a nicely detailed vehicle! The jaws that drop from people seeing before and after gives a nice, warm feeling! Coupled with a grin!!
