Purgatory is real. I love this place and it'* out of the way location. And the fact most residents go away by Labor Day. Ya TL, it'* a slow crawl up and down that hill I call a driveway. And half the roads are gravel. You have to keep 'er waxed and hose her off every trip.

what the hell is wet sanded? ive never heard of that before
i have 2 huge issues on mine..
1. i got somethin on my driver said door and wasnt comin off with cleaning products or soft cloths..i used a little too much force and put a 1x1 foot section of tiny scrapes in it. for now i just throw some scratch wax on it everytime im done washin it...
2. the other one is "crazy ex gf" key mark. like 2 feet long and makes some cool back and forth loop pattern. lol
the ex'* sure know how to get u...even though shes the one who cheated(she got mad i didnt take her back) lol

Wet sanding is just a technique used to get all imperfections and scratches outta ur paint before u wax ur ride. It involves a very very fine grade of sand paper and a constant flow of water. Its one of those things that really makes ur paint pop IF YOU DO IT RIGHT!!! But u could ROYALLY screw urself if you have no clue what ur doing. There are tons of explanations of this procedure online.
