Default Washed and Waxed...

Got busy on my cars yesterday and washed and Waxed the GS.
Came out better then I thought.

On one of the pics you can see the chips on my hood.
I need a new paint job.

Anyway thought I'd share.

Thanks guys.
It took me about 3-4 hours for both cars.
Meguires is great stuff!
I am kinda sore after hand waxing it.
My buffer was taking too damn long.
I need to get one of those Drill bit buffers.

My wife had the ride today so it "SHOULD BE" clean when I get home.
She just picks up my son from school really. Other then that its in the garage.

My other car is white and while it looks SUPER clean and shiny after a wax its NOTHING like my GS after its shinned out. Its just PERFECT. Like Glass.

For Shock:
Is the white house getting a new paint job?

Now it's just brutal because the trees are blooming. I cleaned yesterday and I came to my car after work today to see a green layer of pollen.
