Detailed the GXP today

[smug]

I was bored today and cleaned up the GXP, wash, wax, tire shine, cleaned the wheel wells, rims, ect. I have had the car about 3 weeks and had the windows tinted at 20% and painted the GXP spoiler last night. I dont know why but my GXP did not come with the bigger spoiler ao I added it. I think the spoiler came out nice, as seen in the pics I have not wet sanded and buffed the clear yet so there is a couple dirt nibs but it has nice orange peel to match the factory orange peel.

nice! no clay though? guess with low miles, quite new and garaged, not really needed

so just 1 car in the stable now?

 

[smug]

Yeah just one car now, oh well. I did not use clay because the paint felt nice before i begain the detail. In the spring it will get some orbital buffing treatment with 3M products.

Looks good!

I wouldnt say that a new vehicle does not need a clay job though. Most come off the lot with a nice layer of pollution, rail dust, bird crap residue, etc. To truely determine if it needs to be clay barred put your hand in a plastic sandwich bag cig pack cellophane(sp?) and then feel the paint. It will magnify the sensitivity and paint that feels smooth to the naked hand will feel like sandpaper. After the clay it will feel smooth even with the plastic.
