After ONR wash, after claybar, I had to strip off the wax that was still on there... so, out came the Dawn.

Overall, the car was in fantastic shape to begin with, and the owner babies it religiously. He just wanted me to make the paint shine like lip gloss. ;)
 
i have always loved that blue. Very nice ride. Was just reading a magazine yesterday that was talking about the 2012 corvettes.



Nice work and nice pics.
 
nice work! very pretty car!



Just a quick quesiton.. why the ONR, Claybar THEN wash? Why not just Aggressive Wash, clay, dry, polish?



just wondering..
 
I washed it with ONR when he dropped it off on Wed. night, then parked it in the garage overnight. I claybarred it Thurs. morning, and even afterwards, the wax on it was still very prominent. I decided to just bite the bullet, and Dawn the whole thing. Saved me quite a bit of time, actually.
