Truth be told Ron- being a total newb, waxed his car with Turtle Wax Black Spray Wax! He was too embarrassed to admit it. Till he was told to just wash it. " But it has a hard shell finish" Ah no Grasshopper. Now he man's up and post's the pics. Give him credit-he's learning

Ew,ew let me be first. Always wondered what my car would look like a different color.


I've got some NaviWax you can apply but I'm afraid the car will sound like a ricer afterwards

I'm a volunteer up here in Burlington, CT. This will be my 5th year on the department. Not to many fires up this way but lots of motor vehicle accidents.
