Had the G6E Turbo now for about 4 weeks, finally got it cleaned up.

How much did that set you back to get it coated in dureceal paint sealer??This has caught my attention.

So far so good in regards cleaning it each week, spray on some cleaner and wipe with a microfiber cloth.

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.
