This looks great! I wish we had someone who could throw a detail like this down out here in Northern California.

I did. Those parts were painted and clear coated, so i waxed them for extra protection. Hey, why not throw some love on there too

adds a great shine and slick finish also, and prolly 10whp

Thank you,

Easy. Use 2 5-gallon buckets (preferably with grit guards in the bottom)

Bucket 1 Clean water, 2/3 full
Bucket 2 Soap water mix, per the instructions for the car shampoo you're using

Dip sponge in soap bucket, wash car.
Rinse sponge in clean bucket
Repeat until car is clean

It's nice to see that some people still take the time to do a detail the right way and actually inspect what they are working on before diving in, THEN proceeding with a calculated plan! Car looks great!
