Default What is this??
Is this an abstract painting? Maybe a Salvador Dali.......Nope it is the reflection of the hood of my 02 Black Vette after my wax job. Used McGuire NXT.

That really is cool. Just think how much better it would be if you had used Zaino 1, Zaino2, Zaino3, a little claybar, Zaino4, some Zaino touch up spray, back to Zaino3, Zaino 7.8, Zaino 6.7.....
