Default A Couple Pics after a Detail

I spent 4 hours or so on the exterior detail. Consisted of a wash, clay, re-wash, hand wax, and re-wash.
I need to get some springs pretty badly, but let me know what you guys think.

The car looks great. Just curious but why did you re-wash after a wax? I thought wax was a sealer?

Thanks man
Not all waxs are sealants although some waxs are a combination.
I wash it after the wax to remove any possible wax that has been left on the car. IMO, it leaves a better looking finish after that final wash has been done.
