Looking good, so how many times did you sniff the Natty's paste wax whilst applying ??

I tend to alternate bewteen the Blue bubble Gum and White coconut ice cream. I put some on the car sometimes too;).......

Bubblegum freshness! I stick with the Blue as it's best on Dark colours - love the smell of the Black Hole glaze as well!
