The clay bar is the KEY! Run the back of your hand over your car and if it feels like sand paper, you need to clay and wax. Trust me. It's worth every hour of work you put into it. It's a very rewarding process.

The wheels are 18x8 and the tires are the stock GoodYear RS-A's (unfortunately),

I didn't want to drink until I was finished. Then I had a few and took in the shine! lol
The bowties will be black as soon as I can scrounge together enough cash to replace them.

if all you're doing is wash/clay/wax, that should only take 2-4hrs max! It starts taking a long time when you get into polishing, paint correction, etc. I love doing wash/clay/wax jobs for my clients cause it's easy money.

i guess i work at a **** poor pass. but the million degree weather and 8 pack probably didnt help progress either. plus im a perfectionist. anything worth doing is worth doing right.
