I used the claybar and Gliptone carnauba wax over it. I need to do another coat. Yes, that is Turtlewax in my hand. The Gliptone was inside and I was just "touching up".

There is a block of rooms at the Sheraton for GT owners. Please PM or email if you plan to attend as Lynn is trying to get a head count of GT owners coming. Specific GT track session and display area. WIVES welcome and assured a great time too.
 
Please send us rain!

If rain could be 'scanned' and 'forwarded' I could send you a monsoon right now. It's raining cats, dogs, and little chickens up here. In fact, I just finished attaching pontoons to the house 'just in case'. :bored
