Mine sits outside 24/7. An annual polish with Essence, washed weekly (more frequently during spring pollen) with the foam/rinse/2bucket/rinse/pool rinse/dry method. It stays swirl free.

Looks good Jimbo!
Long time since I've seen you post. Good to see your still keeping it looking sharp!
Hope all is well with you and yours.

Thanks Joe!

Has been a while, not sure why. I think C5 has slowed down a lot since C6.

I browse sometimes but not as often as I used to.

The car is almost 5 years old now and still looks pretty good for a daily driver. Had to replace the Red splitter, cracked it, have a black one now.

Hope you are doing well too.

Jim

I'm down in Florida, and I'm that way in the winter when it doesn't rain very often. During the summer it rains 3 or 4 days a week. That alone isn't such a deterrent, but it's also in the low 90s with near 100% humidity. I won't suffer that for two hours just to have it covered with water spots within 48 hours, so I only wash it every couple of weeks. Each spring I do a full strip and seal to hold it over through the summer.

If it doesn't look like this I'm not happy driving it. Taken 2 nights ago at sunset.

If you really were OCD, you would call it CDO.

My friend I'm the same way. This car has taught me the art of paint correction, OCD Detailing techniques, and to remove your windshield wipers so you aren't ever tempted to drive in the rain!
