as far as prepping the paint, wash, claybar, sealant.
++ on the Conti DWS being a snow friendly all season tire.

I have slacked and not performed this procedure yet. Wash - Claybar - Sealant will be doing it soon. In order to make optimal conditions for sealing and waxing I will have to place 2 space heaters in my garage to get her up to a friendly temperature. Current Temp 31F at this exact second outside my house.
