Another DIB to add to the collection

Got my new DIB yesterday and I'm sure I haven't waited as long as some of y'all but I thought I'd share a few pics of her all cleaned up. Name:  IMG_2045_zps2896c299.jpg

Gorgeous! I just love this color.

I need to give Blue Thunder a bath, the neighborhood birds have been wrecking havoc the past few days but I don't have anywhere to wash him. I need to find a good local car wash.

Ready the car care section and don't use the brush if you want to keep your paint shiny.

Unfortunately I live in an apartment complex so nowhere to hand wash it myself, plus I am of the age that washing my car has long since stopped being fun. I am struggling with figuring out where to get him washed, I have been through the touchless laserwash a few times but he really needs a deeper cleaning. Still love looking at all the pics of you guys that have the time and energy to spend on your beauties!

There are usually plenty of detail shops around where you can get a good cleaning say once a month or whatever your budget allows. Heck even some are a mobile service. Most places charge 40-80 for basic cleaning but they do a much better job than a laser wash. Thanx for the compliments and good luck finding a detail shop.

Have you tried Croftgate? I found out about it in the car care section, the stuff is amazing! definitely expensive, but in the same thread there's some other suggestions. but give it a try if you haven't, it leaves your car looking and even feeling better than a car wash, plus no need to deal with all the issues using water brings.
