Got Detail?

I am big into taking care of my car (exterior/interior), as I am sure many of you on this forum are. Detailing and maintaining a clean car is something I take pride in, and it shows. Post up pics of reflections off of your car to show us how spotless your G really is. Also, if you can include products you use and minor info on what kind of detailing you do to maintain such a sweet looking ride (exterior only).

Care
Meguiars Gold Class Shampoo and Conditioner
Zaino Z2/Z6
Griot's Garage Speed Shine
Meguiar’s Quik Clay Detailing System
Cali duster
Wheel Wax
Microfiber towels only
Genuine sheepskin wash mitt
COVERCRAFT custom fit Noah car cover
Garage kept

I cali dust nearly every morning to remove dust, and put the cover on in the garage when not using the car for > 3 days. Quick detail exterior + rims at least 2 to 3 times in between washes (wash once a week in the spring/summer).

It's not called Mirror. It's called Clear.

Thanks guys. It's very hard work to maintain a spotless look on your car, especially black (all black owners know what I am talking about). Doesn't anyone else have pics they can share?

I really don't think anyone would follow my DIY given the fact that I am extremely ****, and a bit of a perfectionist. My routine includes daily maintenance, and a lot of effort. I don't only pamper the exterior, but interior aswell.

Here is 2 pictures of my old ride. I used Meguire wax and only microfiber towels. It was a 97 and on these pics it had about 70k miles.





Thanks


Mahdi

Not a G, but a very good detailing job.
