Just polished...

Guess what color my car is based on this picture...





Yup, Black. Funny that someone went through the posts...

Anyway, figured I'd ***** my hard days work from a few days ago...

I needed really to Clay and use Polish on the car, but didn't have the time so it'll have to wait. I used Poorboys Suds and Poorboys EX-P Sealant. Was going to throw on Poorboy's Carnuba Wax on top of it, but considering I need to strip it down it would've been a waste.

Wow, the front of my car however looks horrible, despite the pictures. There are so many rock chips, it feels like braille all over. Fortunately it doesn't show too much, but upon close inspection it's brutal (Clearbra, save me please).

Going to be getting my OEM Lip soon and car will be dropped fairly soon...

Before & After:






Random Shots...








Peace out:

Stalker much? Hah-hah just kidding. Thanks for figuring it out for us instead of having to wait for OP to tell us. I was anxious to figure out what color it was.

Thanks for the comments guys...makes my hard work that much easier.

The sad thing is although the car still looks amazing, upon close inspection there is dust all over the car, which of course is normal.

I really need to clay it and polish it (have some Menzerna Polish), plus next time I'll use the same Poorboys Sealant, but top it off with some Natty's Blue Paste (Carnuba Wax) for really make it sparkle and of course get some decent shots.

Damn it will take forever, but will be worth it to get rid of some of the imperfections in the car...
