Well everyone knows that when you do something for a profession/living you tend to forget to take care of your own things or you just don't have the time to get to it.

So thanks to mindflux and others for convincing me to pick up the Prima Car Care product line, most of you know I'm a "PURIST" in the sense that I'm not a fan of glazes.

Well I figured what a great time to try out the Prima Line up and put it to the test my own family hauler. This Q7 was washed about 4 times since we purchased it back March 2010. No true prep until this write up.
