  • Surfside Detailing: My new Pontiac G8 GXP

    After swearing I would never purchase a black car due to all of the black vehicles I work on, I have my new black GXP. Unfortunately the paint was swirled up and scratched from the dealership washes etc. I picked up the car on Thursday afternoon in Louisiana and all I could think of during the drive back to California was the swirls!! I spent all of today (Saturday) polishing and sealing the paint.

    Products Used
    Meguiars Mild Claybar
    Meguiars #105
    Meguiars #21
    Meguiars Foam Tire Dressing

    **Disclaimer** Any pictures where the paint looks hazy or looks like holograms it is just the polish streaking as the humidity was not in my favor.

    Looks great . Good to see another Metallic black color, just like "The Invisible's" black BMW he recently posted, and also the new 458 Italia.

                            Looks great in the sun! I bet you're having a blast with it.

                            May I suggest a subtle addition? Tint! Even just 35% (light) would look great on it, and still be visible from the outside.
