Who's getting some polishing done over the Winter?
-2 windchill today, thank god for a heated garage. For those of you getting your ride ready for Spring, let's see some pictures and what products your using.
Here's mine. Step 1: Adam's Clay Bar. Step 2: Adam's swirl remover. Step 3: Adam's Fine Polish. Step 4: Adam's Buttery Wax.
Step 5: Couple of Stella's.

That's certainly a first class storage facility!--mine has to winter over without heat.
Pinnacle Ultra Poly Clay --Klasse All-In One--Klasse sealant--Collinite 845 insulator wax--finished off with Maalco Showroom shine.
And a few George Dickel's on the rocks

Awesome looking Vette and garage. I am switching from Rejex to the Adams line of products. Going to give their paste wax a shot.

Great job. I have been polishing my 968 while waiting on the C7 to be delivered. I have used Mezerna SF4000, BF Crystal Paint sealer. Have a bunch of other products. Trying to decide what to use on the C7.
Non heated garage, but when out there have a few heaters going, as well as sipping some scotch.

I really could have done some deeper polishing with some other Menzerna products I have, but this time around just the SF4000 and topped with the BF Wet Diamond All Finish Paint Protection. I may do another coat and then apply BF Crystal Seal Paint Sealant. Still need to detail wheels, etc. interior.
When weather allows, I will move out of garage and take a few pics.
I may by the Adams kit or C-Magic and try those products on the vette.
Anyone use C-Magic?

That's one heck of a garage you have. Great detailing job on the car too.

I would guess about 6 hours. My last Vette was Black, so I learned what it takes to keep a nice finish the hard way. Elk was taken in New Mexico, 1986. Scored 355 B & C.

Great man cave you have.
I cheated and used the heat of the sun yesterday. I also wiped that smile off her face.
