Clean detail

So I finally decided to take some pictures of my car and post them up. I hope you enjoy. Its a 2009 Fit Sport AT navi in Storm Silver.

I used a two bucket wash with Meguire's car wash soap. I used duragloss aquawax spray and wipe, which made it so easy. I didn't claybar it as I will wait until spring to do that.













No Swirls!


I can see myself in this picture.




Anyone know how to keep the sirius antenna from creating a rust spot on my roof? I need to clay bar it off but I was curious of how to prevent it.

It only took me about 3 hrs total. That included sweeping the interior. I took about an hour to wash it luckily there was no tar or anything like that on it. Somehow my gf manages to get tar and other unpleasant road skum on the lower part of her car and its a pain to get off.

Perrenoud -- do you think something like a screen protector for an iphone would work? Its a similar material. Thats not a bad Idea. THanks! For whatever reason the bracket holding the magnet is starting to rust. There is now what I believe is a stain on my paint. I tried to claybar the area and it didn't come off. I did have my car simonized when I bought it which is supposed to protect that. I believe it has a warranty for that, do you guys think I could get it fixed. What else could I try.
