I had so much fun washing my car yesterday, that I decided to wash my wife's today. Her's is 4 years older and has also seen the same amount of exterior care (none). It was in similar shape, but worse overall. Lots of swirls and built up residue, but she also has a lot more dings and deeper scratches.

Here's how it started. Fresh out of the touchless car wash.













I sprayed it all down and then started washing it. The passenger front quarter panel was the first thing I did. After just washing it (still wet) I was blown away by how different it already looked! The blue flake in the Nighhawk Black paint was really starting to show!





I finished up washing and drying and then waxed in the same manner as with my car. It turned out looking really good. The deep scratches are still there, but I got rid of all the thick grime and the wax covered up a lot of the lighter swirling and small blemishes. The paint looks sooo much smoother now.





Cont'd...








And here are some outdoor shots.
