Looks damn good, especially since it's black. Does the NXT last a good while?

looks like you are taking a picture of yourself in the mirror.

that stuff works good. how did you guys finally get a nice day outside? here in NY it finally got into the 20's. haven't been able to wash the truck in weeks because of the single digit temps

Looks pretty damn good to me. I can appreciate how hard it is to keep a black car up to that standard. My Firehawk used to suck to wash and maintain. I used to use Zaino and worked really good, too.
