Not bad..good job. You should try Black Magic for tire dressing. it works better then armoral and lasts longer.

I feel you on how long it takes. Did my X on Saturday (same process, wash, clay, wax, tire dressing, etc) It took several hours. I was beat afterwards. The clay took awhile because I had to freakin muscle off some tree sap that was on my hood. And then of course it rained today so basically i have to do it all over again on Saturday..Agh!!:tantrum:

Wow, nice clean and shiny X...yes, it does take time to clean a car. My wife keeps toying with me saying why does it take so much time to clean one car. You think that's tiring....try cleaning 2 suvs at a time. I clean her GX470 first then I clean my X5. Now that's 4-5 hours at one time.

I'm even tired just thinking about it....whew!

I cringe every time i hear of someone useing armor all products... yikes.

Why not stay within a product family, like Meguiars. (just curious)

we350z 09-27-2008 08:40 PM
