Finally sealed up after a year and a half

Well I finally got around to sealing the paint on my car. I haven't properly sealed it since July of 2012 because I have been busy with school. I would typically wash my car then just use a spray wax. I would like to actually polish the paint but unfortunately I do not have time for that right now. Many of the products I use are things I have had for a while and I can't justify buying new improved products since I do not use them often. Enjoy!

Products used:
Meguiars Gold Class Wash
P21S Wheel Cleaner
Purple Power APC
Griots Garage Tire Shine
BFWD
Nanoskin Autoscrub
GG 6"

Nice job! Do your calipers say Acura? Does that mean that Honda offers a higher performance brake package, or is there another story with this (sorry if it's common knowledge, I've just never seen it before.)

Thank you!

My calipers do say Acura, these 4 piston calipers came on an 2005-2012 Acura RL from the factory. It is a common modification amongst various Honda's/Acura's. Some generations of Accords, all Generations Acura TSX's, and some generations of TL's/CL's use the same exact mount and rotor as mine does. You use a 12.6" or 12.8" 350z rotor because the Acura RL rotor is the wrong bolt pattern. This upgrade is also common with Civics, Integras, etc. of various generations also but typically with different rotors. Hope this answers your question.
 
It's never too late to seal your rims and clean up your wells too. Looks awesome and good luck in the future being a professional in Civil Engineering, which we as a country need.:bigups

Thank you very much! This is actually the first time in 122k miles that I have cleaned the wheel wells. Wish I started earlier because some things would not clean off correctly.
