thanks alot, banana!!! after seeing your car and remembering the complete lack of beads after my last wash, i have spent the last 3 hrs washing, claying, and waxing my GS. i did a search on the clay bar and decided on the one from mothers since it is readily available. man, that stuff really works. didnt do the whole car (ok so im a lazy bastard!!) but the front top and back really smoothed out. its amasing what that stuff does for your paint. im gonna take up to my pops and let him use it on his SC. there had been some things said about streaking, of which i had no problems whatsoever. then i put a couple of coats of meguairs gold class. my car looks better than when i picked it up. the sick part about it is that its supposed to rain tonight and i dont have a garage, but what the hell. it really needed it. i am tired as all get out. time for a couple of dale jr's favorite beverage. sorry no pics, but trust me that green is mean again.



Doc

BananaGS, clean car. Too bad there was overcast and the sun wasn't out, or you'd see a nice reflection of the sky in your car. BTW, hook 'em horns!
