[QUOTE="John@Lethal, post: 11518479, member: 125270"] Nice color! There are a few routes you can take to make that blue pop! I would first start by washing the car. [url=http://www.lethalperformance.com/car-care-products-car-wash-products-accessories-c-11322_11335/detailer-s-pro-series-auto-bath-shampoo-32-fl-oz-p-37199]Detailer's Pro Series Auto Bath Shampoo - 32 fl oz [/url] is a great product to use and it comes in a generous 32 ounce bottle.
