Took some more pics of my buddy's TL last night.... this car was coated with 22ple VX3 Signature Coating earlier this year and is maintained to the highest level. He really works his butt off keeping it this clean! Looks incredible.

Zach, when you say your buddy maintains his TL to the highest level, other than possibly VX1 Final Coat, does he apply anything else to the finish?

He's used VS1 Final Coat once or twice since coating, but what I was getting at is that he uses appropriate washing & drying technique, washes the car every week, and is generally following an ideal maintenance plan for keeping the car clean.

.... not many people can keep up with that kind of a upkeep (myself included )
