alright, I"m back from canadian tire. I just bought a detailing brush. it ain't no "Swiss Vax" brush, cause that probably costs like $50 or something and is made of horse hair from a certain specific breed of horse that is known to be super soft and non-abrasive because it was bred on a certain time of the day (or some **** like that hahaha), but it should be enough to get the crevices off the inside of the trunk lid, and get the wax residue off of crevices!

I can't believe I just dumped $200 at Canadian Tire... I saw a socket wrench set (Stanley professional black chrome) for 60% off, and I needed a set, it looks like some high quality stuff, so I bought it. I guess these things you buy once an dyou keep for life, so it all good to get the good stuff (not the cheap jobmate crap)

New clay bar kit, cause the one I had is pretty nasty and dirty from doing Natalia and my old Civic.

New interior quick detailer cause I ran out, and same with Eagle One's All wheel/tire cleaner. That stuff absolutely is awesome, you see the dirt and oil lift up and ooze off of the wheel.. just spray and let it set for a few minutes!

The best tire shine i have ever used is the Armor All Tire Gel, it comes in an orange bottle and with a foam applicator. It doesnt spit up and it lasts forever. Even through several rainy days my tires still have a nice gloss to it. They dont look dry at all.

I have invested alot of time on my car keeping it clean but nothing like those guys! I guess when you have an exotic you're able to spend that kind of cash cleaning it.
