Hi there,
My father in law's Toyota was just screaming 'SAVE ME' the poor thing had not been washed for about a year. As he was on a holiday I dicided to surprise his by making his car look like new.
This is a before picture 
This is after a dawn wash, claying, PI-III (hood) and just one coat of Z5 with ZFX. I was amazed to see that there were only some minor swirls on the car, I guess not washing is helps to keep the paint swirls free  
The old man was quite surprised when he saw his car, he noticed my hard work right away

Where are you by the way? I don't recognize that Toyota though it looks like a Corolla variant.

I live in the Netherlands, the Toyota is a Corolla.
I think they don't ship it to the US because it's to damn small.
The 206 is a Peugeot, I'll post some pictures later.

| As of course we here in the UK had guessed - left hand drive and yellow front plate. Not that I would expect you guys to notice that (I wouldn't have a clue about US licence plates)
