    It's a GTB. Even when it's dirty it couldn't possibly look bad. ;) Looking at your shiny car makes me want to rush home, get out the rags and buckets and start a-scrubbin'. Fantastic detailing job!

    I recall reading somewhere that back in the day Ferrari recommended using only water and a soft cloth to clean their cars. Something tells me you used more than just water and elbow grease for this job. I hope you took it out for a spin to make sure it dried properly. :) Thanks for sharing pics of your GTB!

    A lot of it comes down to techniques over products. There are a ton of products out there that can deliver a ridiculous shine--many that can be had at a plain ol' auto parts store. I don't buy into the whole product snob mentality and I have a part-time gig as a detailer.

    Microfiber towels do live up to the hype, though.

    Nothing better than fresh wax. Nice shine on a lovely car.
