Nice however.

Whats that black mark is that on the camera?

looks like its on the lens and not the car...good job mate,although 5 hours on a car..not really for me but then i have a silver 172 so no need to go crazy on it

where my laser has damaged the sensor on the camera, nothing on the car.

i dont mind spending a few hours cleaning my car on a nice warm day, i enjoy it.

you wash the car and it looks spotless, then you use the clay and the crap that comes off is something else.

ive used clay lots but it still amazing me how much s**t it takes off the paint

[imster]

looks nice like you i love washing the car on a warm sunny day, any chance to get outdoors and enjoy the weather.

Anyone got any suggestions on how to get rid of the white wax marks from the black plastic bits? also i need to get the black plastic looking all new and shiny.
