    Default waxing obsession

    I think i may have a problem how many times do people wax there car??? I think i may do it abit to often, to put it into a perspective i NEVER wash my car NEVER (thats how clean it is). The only water that touches my car is rain water i just finsihed waxing it in the dark and yesterday i waxed it and the day before i gave it two waxes!!! I must wax my car every day almost? give or take a couple of days. The reason why i waxed it tonight is because i was going to pick my girlfreind up and the car reall shines when its dark and bright lights are on it. Iam so so sad Anyway might go out later and do some fancy night pics with the camera anyone got any tips hints on how to get a good night picture or a really nice pic in any condition.

    I dont bother waxing mine often, Lol.
    No point on white paintwork as it has no shine at all.

    Maybe if it was a red or black car it would be worth it.

    Yeah there is no shine really but when its dark and theres bright lights it deffo shines. I think i might have a obsessive compulsion disorder thingy cus when i start cleaning something small i cant stop myself till its perfect and end up doing the whole of the car

    Red is lush when its shiny but can fade really bad if left

    Some of my associates on CCUK take their cleaning and detailling to a serious level, fanatical almost.

    I've not given mine a good meguiars-ing for a while, but its in depserate need of it.
