I agree, the paint on them is just too good right now to mess it up.

SOO-WEET!!!
Love the blue & chrome!!!
I haven't clayed, but I am now a user of Meguir's Gold Class Paste wax!
PLease forgive my ignorance; what is '
" Cleaner Wax ", is that for use specifically with a clay bar??

Re: My New IROC- Clay bar & Cleaner Wax
No, it's a separate wax that Mag's sells.
It works sort of along the same lines of a clay bar, but different.
I usually like to use that after a clay bar, then no more for a long while

Re: My New IROC- Clay bar & Cleaner Wax
thanks guys.
It was actually weird driving the car home seeing a blue hood with louvers. Was so used to a red one before, even though it was a few years ago.
Of course my past 2 cars I don't recall being able to see the hood at all (04 Civic still driving and 97 Formula)

Looks good; but definitely paint the buckets black - very easy to do.

Re: My New IROC- Clay bar & Cleaner Wax
lolI did know how to wax and take pics with a good angle
the drive back was hot (no AC) and a bit nerve wracking. It was a 200 mile trip, never know what could go wrong with a car this old
