Had the G6E Turbo now for about 4 weeks, finally got it cleaned up. Here are some pics.The other car (ZR1) is the Sunday driver that dad used to own with a manual ZF gearbox. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much did that set you back to get it coated in dureceal paint sealer??This has caught my attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far so good in regards cleaning it each week, spray on some cleaner and wipe with a microfiber cloth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that it is simple to look after with a clean taking about 45 minutes and it is just as shiny as the day it was polished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
