Spent my weekend cleaning the car

I spent about 10hrs and did paint correction. It used to look great but up close under a light, the whole car has bad swirl marks and spider weds.
That's a job I hope I don't have to do again.
The car looks so amazing now and shines like a mirror.

It's pouring rain so only photos are in my messy garage.

Finally insured it and took it for a rip. It drove flawlessly.

Need to get my AC charged up. It was hot.

Then I parallel parked it at a buddies house.......aaaaaaand curbed the rim a bit.

Grrrrrrrrr.
