Looks good. Fresh detail?

"Beads, beads everywhere" sounds like a quote from the video I just finished watching. Someone remind me to get some more Kleenex when I go shopping too?

You and I have a very different definition of potato, my friend.

Yes, check my other post with the same tag (can't paste the link on mobile for some reason).

Wow! Is that yours?

Indeed! Ten man hours of claying, polishing, and waxing. I highly recommend Griot's carnauba paste wax. Easy on, easy off, fantastic results as you can see.

10 hours! I did a quick wash, clay, and wax - plus interior vacuum - and it took me 5. I think my wife would kill me if I told her I was going to spend double the time on the car.

I used Meguiars Ultimate Paste wax for the first time, which is a synthetic formula, and it was easy on but a pain to get off. It doesn't help that I put too much on and that the temperature dropped while it was drying, so it never fully dried. I had to choose between getting it off the car or getting rained on...

I'm going to get a cheap DA, or maybe just a drill attachment, to help with the buffing next time. My shoulders are still sore! Despite this, the shine is quite nice, and I'm looking forward to next time.
