Gratuitous cleaning/picture post

Weather was nice this weekend so I took some time to straighten up my garage and clean the cars. Turns out scotch guard will make the "suede" cloth on the seats bleed However, Kiwi Suede & Nubuck Protector worked fine w/no bleeding. The scotch guard did work fine on the carpet, door trim, and floor mats. I also took a few pics I thought I'd share

Looks great. I miss the look of a freshly cleaned black car.

...shiny...

nice job cleaning it. Black looks nice when it's freshly cleaned but after a day or two, it starts to get noticeably dirty again.

Thx guys. It'd look even better but the stock paint job's orange peel is really holding it back. Oh well, better to put the $$$ in the driveline I guess And yeah, two days of pollen or one rain day latter and it'll look like it's never been washed before. Black is a harsh mistress.

I was in the dark garage so the flash came on for that shot, hence the twinkle in the EVO's eyes.
