Thanks!

Washed with Nanolex WashCoat, detailed with Polishangel Master Compound & Master Final polish and sealed with Nanolex Premium Paint and Alloy Sealant.

Interior done with Polishangel Bellaclean Leather Cleaner & Charisma conditioner. Looks and smells like new leather!

Default And finally...
This is what it looks like.

Black Opal paint actually is a nice (very) deep blue, but after 3+ years on the road it needs to be detailed to show its real color...

Very nice. That looks awesome Teo. I'm assuming you used a DA buffer?

Can anyone tell me the difference between Black Opal, and Blue Onyx? My color looks exactly like that, but it was called Blue Onyx?..

I am a detail junkie. Just got it two weeks ago and have washed twice, too cold to do full detail, but put two coats of a polymer based sealant on it the first time, second time added a spray wax to it. Can't wait for spring to do a full detail on her.
