We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.

          Nice one.

          The trim is looking really good. Would you say OC enhances the appearance of exterior trim, or was it already in good condition?

            As always proper rep is the most important key to getting the best finished results. With thats said with everything that I did to the paint enhanced the gloss much more than it was in its original state. I think OC added a certain glossy wet look when applied to a properly prepped paint.

              Yeah, but what about the trim? (think you mis-read my question)

                HAHA Yea I did. I think it added a little bit of enhancement but not much. The trim was in good condition to begin with.
