This Vette was purchased a couple of weeks ago. The owner is away this week and I was asked to prep it while not in use.

QEW
clay - didn't really need it
Poli Seal - pc 6 white lcvc pad - paint
Poli Seal on exhaust
FK1 #1000 - pc green finishing pad 5 - paint/wheel/headlights etc...
FK1 #108 on tires

PS: Paint is glass like, extremely slick. #1000 -

Re: 08 Vette, Acura TL

This is the regular TL that I do. EZ creme glaze was holding up very well since last applied, but I gave it a real bath today anyways.

The owner loves the finish with the glaze and I see it often enough anyways. No lsp needed.

QEW/joy
EZ creme glaze pc 6
Hyper dressing on tires 3:1

Amazing wetness for white paint, and the TL looks incredibly deep.

Re: 08 Vette, Acura TL

Both look great!

How long has the EZ been holding up for so far?
