That is one of my favorite GM colors.
What did you use????
I used the DIY DETAIL system. Gold Standard Polish on a yellow waffle pad, speed 2.5 on a DA polisher for enhancement and Ceramic Gloss spray applied with a foam UFO wax applicator pad.
NICE !
Are you gettin'er ready for the summer car shows/cruise nights ?

That too LOL, but I am obsessed with a clean car.
Nice job, and a great color!
Until you pull up to the drive through window and the server has to shield their eyes, it needs another coat! 
How long did that take to complete?
I thought you said you used the Turtle Wax Ceramic w/ Graphene paste wax when you posted the same pictures here last month?
Turtle Wax Ceramic w/Graphene
That was LAST month, LOL. Tuesday I used Ceramic Gloss and again yesterday.
The polishing about 20 minutes since it was just a light enhancement. Applying the Ceramic Gloss took about an hour or so, because I was in no hurry and listening to some music on YouTube.
Don't guve me any more ideas ... In a month or so, I'm going to get DIY Hydro Lite and coat the car with that ... 6+ year rated.Until you pull up to the drive through window and the server has to shield their eyes, it needs another coat!
Depending on if I use the rotary or the DA and how many passes I do. 1 - 2 passes with the rotary = high gloss, light cut. 2 - 3 passes with the DA = medium to heavy correction.
The waffle runs cooler than a flat pad (cooler is good) and conforms to curves & emblems better for even polishing.
So do you have pics from the recent work?
