When I saw Turtle Wax Max Power Car Wash as one of the products in this list, my jaw dropped. I thought, "A professional detailer using a Turtle Wax product on a new Corvette? Sacrilegious!" I am a hypocrite! I use this VERY product myself for most of my car washes after learning about it in this forum. I mix it with Meg`s Detailer Line Hyper Wash D110 to add some cleaning power to it. How much I use depends on how dirty the vehicle I wash is. If it is REAL dirty, then I add a little more (No, I do NOT use the label-suggested amounts for washing; I "eye-ball" it) I like the Hyper Wash as it adds some lubrication and foam that the TTMPCW does not have. Just my two-cents worth....
I do have a question on the Corvette; What do YOU think of this design?? I know it is impossible to evaluate its driving characteristics from just moving it in-and-out of your shop/garage for detailing purpose, but you do get a feel for the interior layout.
Personally, this is the way the Corvette should have been designed MANY years back. Now it looks more "Lamborghini/Ferrari" super-car-like. It really eschews the old, "traditional" Corvette silhouette and bring this car into the 21st century. The mid-engine layout cannot but help in the driving and handling department. Not sure of the build-quality as it IS a GM product, which has its corporate mass-production parts and manufacturing "standards" to adhere to for determining its Manufacturer`s Suggested Retail Price (AKA Sticker-Price). Still a nice car. Just not sure if it will be accepted by former Corvette owners OR if it is moving into a completely different market to appeal to the younger car buyer as an affordable super-car, which I think is smart for Chevrolet and GM to do. Nor am I sure if and when I will "embrace" the now-in-development electric motor model. Guess I will be the equivalent of the horse-and-buggy person (IE, Gasoline Internal-Combustion Engine holdout) in a horseless-carriage (IE, Electric Motor) era.
(Back then it was; "HATE those loud horseless carriage engines scaring my horses all the time!" Soon it will be, " HATE those EVs beating my ICE-powered car at the Stop Light drags and not having to pay the UN/EU mandated Global Warming Pollution Tax)
