I'm still trying to figure out if I'm looking into a curved mirror or not 0_o HOLY WOW!!!!

I feel severely stupid now for my detailing job. Mine is now officially BAD. I retract my previous statement about it not being to bad.

That's seriously amazing work!! Mirror/chrome shine to it. I guess that is what I expect from using all these different products and researching like crazy as how best to apply everything.

Mine looks like a weekend detailing project. Yours looks like a piece of art.

Ugh... I've got so much research and testing to do to EVER get that good at making things shiny. And I NEED to own a darker car next time.

That is black paint, always looks amazing when freshly detailed.

Toyota is pushing the "paint protection" crap hard. They want to sell us a lifetime once-a-year thing for like $900.
