    Yes, it was one the nicest colors I've ever worked on for sure. Unfortunately the exhaust was one of the things I was unable to complete in the 12 hours I had the car. I did spray some D108 super degreaser on it while I was washing the car. It got rid of some grime but I never got the chance to use a polisher.

    I've used sealants in the past like M21 but with the Texas weather these days it would take me 2 hours to remove the residue. I kept it simple and finished it off with Meguiars 2.0 wax. So basically M105, M205 and 2.0 as a LSP.

    @H.E.D, Yes the CC was very tough! I had to wet sand it several times and buff it with my most aggressive combo to remove the scratches on the hood.

    @Ciera, I actually did not use a polish on the rims just the D108 super degrease at 4:1 dilute. Interior was untouched, I simply do not have the time or equipment to do anything with the interior.

    I love the way the Atomic Orange glows in full sun, it's my favorite C6 color!

    I've used the Black WOW a few times and was impressed, it seems to last through a few car washes too.
