hahaha yeah, it was definitely easier to wash my little corolla, at least i could reach across the back window and most of the top! i'll take the struggle of washing the MC over that thing any day though. much more gratifying! i am lucky my bf is 6'4". even with my little stepstool in the kitchen i still can barely reach the top shelf

Black cars are a lot of work. I used to have an '84 Firebird looked like KITT. Using detailer instead of wax will give you that finished look a little easier.

Default Love the car : )

I love the car! Really nice!! Have you tried armour all "gloss" ? I personally love that stuff and the shine really comes out on the vinyl.

washed, dried, waxed, cleaned the tires, scrubbed the rims, cleaned the glass, cleaned/conditioned all the leather front and back, and cleaned the whole interior. i even got on the stepladder so i could clean the top of the car and the glass on the sunroof. which was not fun, since a.) i'm deathly afraid of heights and b.) the stepladder wobbles like crazy. but i made it! i'm quite sore and am hungry all over again and i still have to pack (work road trip leaving tomorrow till wednesday), but my car is clean!!!!

thanks! i haven't tried the armor all Gloss. I use either Meguiar's or Lexol on my leather. i've heard some adverse stories about armor all drying out and cracking dashes, i don't know if it would have the same effect on leather? i don't know if i would want to take my chances though.

i can't see the pics of your car, i don't have a cardomain page (too lazy lol) but you should post some in the new members section and introduce yourself to the rest of the forum family
