So during my winter break from College we had a 65 degree day, December 28th to be exact.
This was after Christmas, when, as some of you might remember from the Christmas Presents thread, I received a Porter Cable 7424 Buffer from my family.

So, upon waking up, I decided that because I had the good luck of having a nice day during December, I should take advantage of it and detail up the Olds, laying a coat of wax on it with the new PC to help battle the winter and make up for the shitty Adams crap that Jimmy so nicely helped put onto it in August. It smelled great, its really too bad its so hyped up and really doesn't last for any longer than 2 weeks, and didn't on my grandfather's 2002 Cadillac Seville either.
Annnyway, so I started with one dirty Olds:

Then I washed it and put on two coats of Black Magic Liquid Wax with the PC, now look at that shiiiiine:

Also worthy of note, I also washed my grandfather's 2002 Cadillac Seville SLS, because it was disgusting as a result of him driving to Bradley airport in Hartford, CT in a snowstorm:

After a wash that took an hour because I can't do something half-assed and this car was probably one of the dirtiest I've washed in a while:

It was a long day, but I'm happy with the results.
Cars that are well waxed repel snow so much better! :D
