    I`m not a big fan of red unless it`s a vettes torch red done right. Last year I did an all original `84 torch red vette that was a red orange when it came in, but I wish it looked like that when it left. Heres a pic of what it did look like when it left.

    Looking good. That red is popping! 1question. How is the Mckees 37 interior cleaner? (Pros and cons if any)I need to get some interior wipe down cleaner. What does it smell like?

    Great work as always a Scott!! I love red!

    Have you tried the McKee’s Tire Shine with Si02. I bought it because I wanted something quick for maintenance washes, honestly I thought the Si02 was more of a gimmick. That stuff has really impressed me. Not quite as much gloss as the High Gloss, but durability has been great.

    Re: Little red Corvette

    Thanks for the comments all! Glad everyone is enjoying the thread!!

    Civic: That turned out great!

    Fishroes: It works very well. Great for quick cleaning and works great on Nav screens too! Smells like coconut if I remember...

    DaveT: I have not yet! Good news, more durability out of a tire dressing is excellent news!
