Thanks man, she just passed 137,000 miles. Although it took me four engines to get there She has never been wrecked or repainted though, the paint has held up great.

Thanks man. Generally just Turtle wax Zip wax carwash and turtle wax ice and clay bar. But a buddy just did a full Adam's polish and wax on it last month.

The Klasse stuff is good, that is what Hoss-05 uses.

But what was done to my car was a 6 hour process. But Houstonrx8er did say that mine was in great shape when he did it so it made the results much better

I have also always used separate microfiber mits for different parts of the car and I don't cross contaminate them and wash them regularly. I have tried the fancy car washes and I just don't like the results. The Turtle wax zip wash works awesome, I have been using it for 20 years.
