Hello,
I`ve been a long time lurker, just thought I`d finally sign up. I`m a weekend detailer and by no means as advanced as most of you.
I recently picked up my 2008 Solstice GXP w/ 37k miles. I`m looking forward to learning how to best take care of the paint and convertible top in particular.
I`m lucky as the previous owner looks to have taken quite good care of the car, and never reven removed the pink protective film from the aluminum door sill inserts.

Though it might find you here Gabe :)
Right now I need to find a sealant for the top. It doesn`t even try it bead water, soaks it up like an old t-shirt.

Thank you for the warm welcomes :)
I have a thing for clean engine bays. I`m ok with the outside, but pride myself on keeping the heart of my cars clean. I generally don`t use any kind of dressings, just keep it spotless.
