I had a very irate woman that was screaming at me because I was parked a foot back from the stop log and she had trouble getting into the double space beside me.
"How DARE you think you can park back like that and interfere with others"
I just paced off the difference that her crew cab Ram truck stuck out, replied "Hmmmm about 6 feet eh?" and walked away.

She wasn’t much help. She kept yelling, “dad dad dad watch my soccer trick!” Of course, I did.

I gave her a proper wash and detail.
I did some minor polishing, and then I finished with opti-seal.


Got it tucked into the garage and applied the second coat of opti-seal to ensure it was coated evenly.


She's all protected for a while

Thank you, a little elbow grease goes a long way.
The color is called Asphalt gray. I immediately fell in love with the color.

It's a dark steely metalflake. Can be quite sparkly.
