Clay, Wax and Glaze

Wifey is away this weekend so I decided to do my spring cleaning thing...

Of course many beers were harmed in the process

Man...you work fast! Waxing alone takes me about 4 hours

Black is soooooooo nice right after a wax/wash...good job

But unfortunately, it only last for a few minutes until the dust settle on it after a drive

Really nice work. You do owe yourself the luxury of a nice Porter or similar.

Nice! Came out great...This will be my task in the next couple of weeks. Gotta get her ready for those summer meets and shows.

4 hours of actual effort. There were many beers consumed and breaks so all in all about 5 and a half I would say. I was going to take the seats out and do a deep clean inside and then I thought and said FTS, LOL. tomorrow is another day.
