Default cleaned my baby

thought i would give the car some serious cleaning time today prior to meet tomoz, took my around 5hours in totaly but add on an hour for the AG gloos protection to dry, so all in all 6 hours and am stunned with the results never thought i couold get it to shine how it is there are a few pics where you can still see cleaning residue but that has been sorted out, and believe it or not was the first time ive use a clay kit and the first time ive polished a car








let me know what you guys think
