Default Cleaned her for the first time...

... started with a nice wash with Sonus Gloss Shampoo. Next did the detailing clay... first time I've ever done that... took quite a lot of dirt off! Finished with Klasse All-in-One to polish and seal.

I think it came out quite nicely.

What other cleaning products would you recommend?

Can I bring mine down to see how good it looks on Midnight Blue?

Check out OCBen on the 997 forum, he has a website in his signature with complete detailing tips.

Looks fantastic BTW.

Don't forget to clean the inside of your Wheels too!

I've been putting off cleaning mine because of construction on our local neighborhood. It kicks up so much dust that my car gets incredibly dirty leaving and coming home again. The project that was supposed to take 6 weeks is in it's 20 week with no end in sight. Fortunately for me, I'm moving into my new home this week so after unloading some boxes and furniture, my car gets a wash!

As soon as I stop goofing around here, I'll go clean mine (and the wheels, too). Afterwards, I suspect I'll go the shortcut route of Rejex.
