If you read "Wash After Service" you know I just will not let dealer touch paint on any vehicle I own. So I took LR4 home with plastic intact, 6 miles on clock at delivery, drove 13 more home and went to work.

That looks AWESOME! Thank you for posting the cleaning products and routine - very valuable information!

I saw the edge of your license plate and noticed you are from CT. I moved to the SF Bay area from Mystic, CT about 5 years ago.

Best of luck!
