Kept seeing Mike's AB in Canada and how unreal
that car looked.

His car looked so slick, I had to try to imitate!!

Nice David ! Looks awesome! It'd be really neat to get a get together of a bunch of AB's for a group photoshoot. Can't wait to get up with you guys again next year at the gathering!

I was thinking "stunning" but it's been used so I'll just say it looks wet and ready. Fantastic deep blue color too

Yeah it looks really nice! :dancing
I need to do mine - guy in the Vette club I'm in here does his own detailing - either I'm gonna see if he will help me or I will take it to a local detailer that uses Adam's stuff next spring....

Lets see.... FBI is going DRAG RACING on Sunday, and Dave is going to a "show n shine". ...:rolleyes: I guess we know now who are the WARRIORS & WAXERS in THIS bunch! (the latter synonymous with wearing lace on their underwear):sign10:

Got just one question, Dave... When are you going to have a white stripe added to your car? :p

OK, I admit it: Your car is a STUNNER (And, I'm jealous!!) :thumbsup: Knock 'em dead, Dave. Your car should be a heck of an ambassador at that show. Let us know how it turns out!

He will be shifting to Long Underwear end of October :sign10:

I have the skunk strip sitting here in the box ready for install. Not ready for the skunky jokes!!!! Hahahahhahahahahaha

My car is a driver, making trip all over and it needed some serious detailing..... This was / sealant has a warranty for 24 months! (We shall see!!!)

Thanks for the compliments I had to bring my game up since Mike bought his new AB and we don't get to see Ricky's car much anymore. (Jab jab!)

That looks like cquartz. Car looks awesome.

I prefer a sealant vs. a coating. That coating needs to be removed with rotary/sandpaper. Over time if its a driver, the coating gets etched scratches etc. While coating is more durable, I like idea of the sacrificial sealant. Uv wise tough to beat coating. Good luck with her - car looks great!

That blue really pops!!!

The MerCruiser engraving is totally unique ... flows VERY well with the rest of the underhood :)
