Dawn wash, Clay Magic Clay Bar, then rinse again, in the first third and fourth pic, it was using Zymol's store bought wax, then in the second pic it was Tropi-cares tc-3 sealant.



The Zymol was a little difficult to apply and remove and left quite a bit of dust, but its a cleaner wax and hid a lot of my light swirls(which i will be removing with my PC and menzerna products as soon as they get here). But it gave it a really deep gloss that looked great.



The tropi-care products are AMAZINGLY easy to apply and remove and leaves an UNBELIEVABLE clear reflection. It's not quite as deep as other products, but then again, its just a sealant and not a wax. I have yet to try their carnauba wax over it which is supposed to provide a much deeper shine.



Overall, the tropi-care is an INCREDIBLE sealant on well prepped paint and the Zymol is great for those of the less auto enthusiam that just want an "apply once" cure-all.
 
great pics, love the ride, shine is outstanding. today i put a coat of chemical guys mirror shine and topped it with their pete's 53. the paint is dripping off the car as we speak. i love their products, they're as helpful as heck, i did'nt think i could improve the shine, depth, and clarity on my car but this combo did, you might want to give them a try. just my two cents. :woot2: :nixweiss

Thanks man! I'll definitely have to check it out! What are the names of the exact products? Any links to your pics? I'll return the love
 
@sludge



Thanks man!

@awahl63



nobody could appreciate that comment more than me. I love taking car pictures and i've really been working hard to get some good car shots! I've got a good one of mine and a friends acura TL at night that i'll post up later



@stiffdog06

Thanks for the kind words man!

The 04s were 5.7 litres. 05 and 06's are 6.0 litres! A lot of people think they're all 4.7's tho!





And to everyone, i can't tell yall how good it makes me feel. I've really worked hard and i put a ton of work into keeping my car clean and making it shine. Nobody in "good ol' oklahoma" appreciates it much, especially the kids at high school with me....... lol. Its really nice to be recognized some by guys that know cars!! Thanks!
 
Thank you for clearing the years up for me!:thx



I am in love with the GTO's!:dance



They look so amazing and being either 5.7L or 6.0L. Either way they are FAST. I want to get, put a supercharger on it, and let it WHINE!



I still can't get over how deep and wet that paint look!!!:2thumbs:
 
Beautiful car! :xyxthumbs



I still can't believe these cars went over as badly as they did, sales-wise. Some of GM's best products these days seem to be coming from down-under.
 
@stiffdog06



No problem man! Thanks for all the kind words! I've got a couple friends that i hang out with, one supercharged, one twin-turbo'd. They HOWL!!!!!!



@velobard

Thanks!

It does kind of suck how they went over, but apparently they are increasing in popularity since they quite making them. Be watching for the new g8(or grand prix, can't remember which) its based off the holden commador. Should be SWEET
