What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

Finally found a car wash I trusted to do a true hand wash and carnauba. They have a decent Mexican restaurant next door that serves great coffee brewed with cinnamon, so an added reason to go there again.

Maybe it's just that it's a sunny day, but I think she really sparkles more now than she did. Gosh, I love this car!

Then I took her to my favorite bookstore and when I parked, I just sensed that the guy who pulled in nearby in a Lexus would succumb to her charms. He did, and we talked for a while, and he said her look was "sexy" twice. :) I still say she's a shameless flirt.

Still no more than my one previous "in the wild" siting, but I did see my first wild Karma today.

Trial of the plasti dip combo today, tried to do a black chrome, turned out to match the panthera metal quite nice. Really makes it stand out more, noticed way more stares today haha. What do you guys think Yay or Nay?

If I like it enough I'll try to get em powder coated this color

Washed, clayed, dried and applied ammo reflex + klasse sealant glaze. Took about 5 hours of hard work but the results were pretty great. Water rolls off my paint now.. And should for another 6 months :) anyone who has the red knows pics don't do it justice. Btw.. Ammo reflex isn't that great of a product. Disappointed considering it costs over 100 dollars to get a 15 ml bottle to Canada. Next time I do this I'll be using klasse all in one before the sealant.

I like ammo hydrate and mud. Hydrate while drying seems to really help get a spot free finish. Mud gives a great finish that doesn't sling. I prefer the more muted tire shine personally.

I want to try his new rinseless wash, and maybe some of his soaps.
 
I got the car steam washed again today, I think it looks fantastic. They do a great job and finish it with a coat of spray wax. Ready for the weekend!

Shoot that with a different background and it will be on calendar. Looks so shiny!

Damn that is sweet, shine pops!
I thought I wanted a white or ceramic silver, but I do love the blue.
What is the Kia name for your blue and do you know if available in GT2?
Was thinking red Nappa leather in the white or ceramic, but would guess black would be best look in the blue beast.

Micro blue is the official paint name I believe

I have a Micro Blue GT2 but when I got mine (Jan 2018) the only option was the light grey interior. Dash, pillars, and headliner are all black but seats and accents are light grey.

Hope it helps!
