Was bored today so I decided to polish the vette, I have to say I have been a big fan of Menzerna products, IP and FP, but the ceramiclear is awsome, gloss gloss gloss, did the whole car with it and a white pad, followed up with Rejex, I usually use Pinnacle Souveran, but I did my wifes car a little bit ago with Rejex, and I forgot how nice it looks , plus with all the snow around here it's not going anywhere soon, so it will have plenty time to cure here are a few pics in the garage, depending on the weather Sun. I will pull it out and get a few more pics, some better ones

these are not the best pics, sorry

Thanks, I used a PC with the white pad and Menzerna ceramiclear, I really like that stuff,costs twice as much as FP, IMO it's worth it. On on my way outside to shovel some of the snow off the driveway, and then I'll pull her out and take a few more pics
