Default Detailed my Black LT1 Camaro

Hi all,

I've been a lurker around these forums for abit and I love all the pretty LS1-Gen F-bodys I see here, so I thought I'd make my contribution with something thats not really seen as much around here anymore, a freshly detailed LT1 Camaro (96 Z28). I'm planning on getting the windows tinted (doors and back window, 20% probably) and throwing on some 18" Black Z06s on it before summer comes. Prior to these pictures, I spent a day with my porter cable 7424 detailing my baby, heres the steps I did:

-Wash
-Claybar
-Re-wash for Clay risdue
-SFX-1 polish with Orange DAS sonus pad
-SFX-2 polish with green DAS sonus pad
-Klasse AIO applied by hand
-P21s wax apply by hand

I'm more than satisfied with the results, hell, when your car is still shiney at night, you know it's clean!

Looks good! I for one think the 97ss is the hottest factory f-body ever produced.. That's close enough to be considered hot!

I was thinking about it, but it'd mess up the whole stealth/black vibe, maybe tinted ones tho
