Default Summer Pics - My Camaro

For about the past 6 weeks, I've been playing with combinations on my Camaro (like every summer).

I started out with Pinnacle XMT Finishing Glaze topped with Pinnacle Souveran. After the next 2 washes, I added another coat of Souveran. After the most recent wash, I revisited Clearkote RMG and added another coat of Souveran and Clearkote Quikshine (on glass, too). The tires are wearing Zaino Z16.

Here are a few pics:

How do you manage to keep from spotting in the 8 million degree heat of Texas in the summer?

Ah, yes. The times of day we lovingly refer to as "Skeeter Season".

Work quickly and as early as possible. When my replacement CR Spotless cartridges get here, it should be much easier.

I haven't been to Houston for detailing (been to Dallas), but I'm sure something could be arranged.
