Well we are going to our beach house this weekend in Destin, FL and I managed to schedule an exterior detail and swirl removal on a 2014 Spring Special Edition "Green Flash" SS Camaro. Pics to come. Traveling in my 5 series Bimmer and still have plenty of room... in the buckets and basket are:
1 each grit guard
Wash mit
HD Speed
Rupes 21
Plenty of various pads
Exterior microfiber towels
CG plush smicrofiber silk edge towels
JetSeal
Paint prep
Rubber prep
CG VRP
CG citrus wash
Blower
Drying towel
Wheel cleaner
Big/tar remover
Iron remover
Clay bar
LED Work light and stand
Latex gloves
Extension chord
Pad prep
And a few other things

Should be fun

Yup and is one of the best $30 ever spent (actually was a birthday present lol).

Nice. I need another light so I don`t have to keep taking this one apart.

Buy it and you won`t regret it...the $42 (2000 lumens) is great but the $69 (2700 lumens) is even better! Her is what I did with mine to make it come apart easier: Dual purpose camera Tripod

Look at what showed up this morning. Now I love my 2012 and typically hate the 2014-15 body style but this is kickin`....

and yes that`s my Bimmer in the background dirty as hell from the trip down last night.

Anyways on to the wash/decon to see how bad this puppy is or isn`t.

What is special about this edition:
-Custom green color only for this spring edition by GM.
-Painted to match good vent
-Body kit
-ZL1 spoiler
-21" wheels

The owner had some extras done as well.

Last time I was down for a race with my Camaro, he actually let me install a tune for him...now to talk him into headers, cam, and much more lol!

Nice green. Don`t see too many green cars anymore. One of my favorite colors.

All is being done by Rupes 21, Uro Fiber pads, and HD Speed.

A few last shots. The owner was ecstatic over how it turned out...

I did take a break in between the swirls though to go get some fresh seafood while I`m in Florida.

I`ll spare all the details since we all know what we`re doing here. But as mentioned HD Speed, Uro Fiber pads. Washed and stripped with CG Citrus wash, clayed, and sealed.

And I couldn`t help myself but to touch up the engine bay just a little...on the house since he didn`t ask for it.
