    Welcome. Now we need you to take a picture when it's dark outside while someone shines a bright ass light on the car. We needs to see the pearl.

    ^THERE'S THAT OH SO SEXY BLUE PEARL! F'ng nice!

    To remove swirl marks get some swirl mark remover and apply to surface. Take a buffer (with foam pad) on low speed to surface. Do not stay in one spot for long time.

    It doesn't really get cold where he is but up here in the panhandle it gets decently cold. It'll drop into the teens a few nights. It always feels colder here than it actually is because of the high humidity, same goes for the heat.
