ProjectDetail - Black C5 Corvette
 
Detailed this black C5 Vette, got to use my Autoglym HD Wax which definitely brought out some nice shine on this paint. Car was in pretty good condition other than the holograms from the previous detailer. Just a light coat of dirt on the paint, didn't take much out of the paint either in terms of claying. I didn't take any interior pictures, just some befores, durings, and a few afters.

Mmm, I like the look of HD wax on that black. If only it was a full correction!
