Greetings everyone.
I spent yesterday (Friday) with a couple of buddies. One had just gotten the new Dodge Charger SRT-8 Super Bee.
We got together for a detail session and some pizza.

I got to go for a ride in the car. All I can say is WOW.
Lots of power with the 6.1 Hemi and lots of torque.
We had a couple of spirited sprints and I was planted "firmly" in my seat.
Lots of nice details to the car too like the yellow baseball style stitching on the black leather seats and steering wheel.

All three of us worked on the car and it took about six hours or so, taking our time, chatting, and breaking for lunch.

The car was lightly swirled and with just a few hundred miles on the clock.

Claybar.
Lots of folks ask about using a claybar on a new car. Generally the best way to tell is to do the "baggie" test.
This was the newest car I have worked on.
This car got clayed and it was AMAZING the contamination that was removed from a brand new car.
We slipped up and did not get any pictures of the claybars, but you could see the junk in the clay.

Here is the car and the processes used as posted by my detailing mentor.
