Went to Shelby American 50th Anniversary Celebration at the Carlisle Ford Nationals this weekend with my 2010 GT500. 380 Shelby's showed up and almost 3000 Ford cars. I won 2 plaques, 2nd place in my class and the top 50.

Beautiful car! I didn't know UPGP worked that well. I almost figured it as an optically clear sealant that adds gloss but doesn't add the warmth/glow/etc of a paste wax, but it turned out excellent.
First time using it, was really impressed. I wanted to put 3 coats on, as I heard 3 is the magic number but ran out of time. When I got up to PA the car was covered in bugs, some Ultima Waterless Wash and Adams towels and the bugs and dirt came right off. I used 22 oz of UWW to wipe the car down and about 10 Adams towels.
that is a very nice looking vehicle man! the work paid off and you won some awards. congrats very clean.
Thank you very much, I didn't take any before pics because the car was very clean to begin with an the before and after difference is minimal.
