    Nothing special. It's my DD, so drove it to work, and for a car wash on the way home. Ben a while since it was cleaned.

    But the way, that armor all wheel protectant is amazing stuff

    Thanks! I don't know if this is new or not but detailers offer a ceramic or silicon coating that helps protect the paint. There are different levels of coatings which last longer and therefore cost more. It includes washing, clay barring, paint correction and then coating the car. It takes a week to cure so no car washes and keep it out of the rain too.
