Nice work... the dealer could never make the car look this good..

yes we often polish and put sealant on the windows.

Would polishing the window leave swirl marks?

im not a fan of blue cars, unless they are properly maintained, as this one clearly is. the paint is stunning. 2 questions for you Phill... #1, did you apply the Swissvax Autobahn bh hand? and 2) how much more do you typically charge per detail if a client requests swissvax devine?

Car looks great, as always. But I do have a question. What do you seal windows with, and do you do it both inside and out, or just outside?

1. autobahn was applied by hand.
2. we don't charge all that much more, in fact if we think it will look better with Divine we will include it. If not then we don't.

we used Menzerna FMJ to seal the windows. Just the outside was done.

Your detail threads always make me want to buy more when I look at all the products on the shelves in your shop. I wish I had a work environment like that when I detail my cars.

Car is looking great as always.
