finally the weather has been dry and started to warm up and was able to do the yearly clay bar, sealant, and wax. The Gold Mist Metallic has grown on me with the black. Wasn't a fan at first but now I am glad I bought the color. It cleans up really nice.

Looking really good. What sealant do you use?
Thanks!

I use to use McGuire's but I switched over to turtle wax ice products.

I like their ICE products because you can use them on all parts of the car (glass, plastic, etc) and they leave zero residue. I also am not afraid if I happen to miss removing some wax because I know their wax won't hurt the paint if it is left on the car. Target carried their detailing spray for one year last year and when they put it on clearance for like 3 bucks I bought everything that was on the shelf lol. I should be good for detailing spray for a while now. Now target doesn't carry it anymore.

I also use amsoil's miracle wash when I don't want to get the bucket and hose out.

I also tried the turtlewax ICE wax a couple weeks ago. I am amazed. This stuff is great. It makes the paint feel slick. It doesn't leave any white stuff on the plastic or in the seams. In fact, it makes the plastic look great. I have dew on my car every morning here, and it still beads after a couple weeks and a couple quick washes.

Your car looks great! Nice color. Our cars look very similar. The black bow ties make the car look less gold and more silver. Black accents look the best with this color.
Very nice! Add a shark fin would look super clean with the color!

I have one and had it on for a while and took it off. I felt the car needed more black on the rear so to me the antenna didn't look too bad. I am thinking of putting it back on though. I have to clean the tape off of it and put the new tape on it. thanks
I had the VG Shark Fin on mine as well, but I hated it. It looked like a tan turd on top of the car. I think the black looks better. I put on a black stubby antenna, and I love it.

Yeah I know what you mean. I may try a stubby myself.
