Default Cleaned the fiance's car up

Its been about over a month since I got to clean her new car up. I let her take ol' Red to work as I washed her car up. Started with a nice wash with Deep Crystal wash, followed by a drying twice, then waxed it with Auto Glym High Definition Wax, then vacuumed and conditioned all the leather seats and detailed interior with Meguiar's Natural Shine. Then shined the tires with tire shine (cars are the only thing I use tire shine on). Turned out pretty nice! Man it was dirty:

Dirty on the left, clean on the right:



right after just washing it:



the wax (good shit)



All done:



I wanted to wash it in driveway, but I have a small leak in the spigot that I have to fix this week. But this way I could pull under the shade tree to wax and vacuum.
