Talking finally a coat of wax...its been too long...

the last time i waxed my crossfire was just before carlisle in the beginning of july. quick detailer can only aid for so long between waxings.

tonight i clayed, polished & waxed it all... the jambs, inside of the rims, exhaust tips, etc... she looks like new at 30k! i love this car!

A balmy 55 degrees here in the Detroit area today gave me one last chance to detail my Alabaster roadster before the snow & ice really hit.

Not as extensive as Andrew's job, but I waxed, treated the tires/interior and Rain-X'd the windows.

Hurry Spring!
