Spirited Driving on Winding, Curvy, Twisty Roads!

I recived a microfiber/foam application pad with my Klasse Concourse kit. Do I use the pad with both the AIO and the SG?
 
to avoid mixing up the products..use two different applicators

one for AIO the other for KSG



use a foam applicator pad to apply KSG, you can get it in many local auto stores..
 
Many of us here prefer to use foam for everything. They will give you a much more even application and will help you use much less product. Foam also lessens the chances of getting any hot spots that other appliators can give you. Yes, for the Sealant Glaze (SG), I would definitely recommend foam. You can use the applicator that was sent to you for the AIO. I would use foam myself though.



After this, just wash your pads very well with Dawn and warm water, ring out all excess water and store in a Ziploc bag with a title of Sealant Glaze or AIO to help you know which pad was used for which application. Or if you want, just throw them away and use new ones each and every time you apply the products. Both ways are perfectly fine. Laters.
 
I like using the mf applicator to "work in" 2 coats of AIO until smooth, then I like "applying" the thin coats of SG with a foam applicator.



put a few drops of water on your MT's if you have them when buffing out the Klasse, and to separate towels also :)
 
The one thing we all have in common here, is that we all love our cars, and I suspect that most of you love to drive.... ESPECIALLY on winding and curvy roads.

I spotted this picture on Corvette forum. WOW! Would I love to get the Vette out on this thing for a couple hours!!!

One slight problem. It's the Transfagarasan Highway in Romania! That's a long road trip!

Pretty sweet road...... Now that would be fun! Like my own personal ROLLER-COASTER!

If you look closely behind the two Buells, this is a picture of me ripping through deals gap giving chase in my s2000. Well just say they were surprised I was still right behind them every time they turned around after a section of twisties. :D they were insanely fast though! I was amazed with them as I followed watching, they were dragging knee in almost every corner and weaving in and out of each others lines effortlessly, it was definitely not their first time through!

Cool! That's definitely what the S2000 was made for!!:biggrin:
 
Holy crap, Billy, that's some great driving to keep up with a couple of sport bikes! NICE!!!

I absolutely live for those kind of roads Bill and that one you've pictured looks awesome. If you guys want a kick Google some of the Nurburgring videos and watch some of the fastest laps. Amazing !!! (But come right back to TID).

I need to look up some Romanian or German relatives on Family Ancestry.

Nothing even remotely close to that around here.

BUT........ the back roads to Lake of the Ozarks are pretty good! Hills, turns, twists.....Great for "spirited" driving!:devil:

That's just about the spitting image of any number of passes in the Alps. Here's a new way of enjoying the twisties :out:

Here's an interesting place I found out in Utah. Unfortunately I was going downhill on the bike which left only one alternative... turn around and do it the other way too! :Dancing Dot:

Here's a vid of some nut in a big rig going downhill. I woulda never guessed anyone would try it hauling a trailer but you can see in the mirror going around one of the switchbacks he's definitely got a box in trail.

I'd guess unless you head east you might be twistie-deprived around Kansas City. I think I saw THE curve going through Kansas once. It wasn't far from the tree. :D

There is another place known for its twisties, up and down mountains. It is called tail of the dragon in Deals Gap, NC. Looks pretty amazing and an awesome ride.

Google Tail of the dragon and check it out.
 
My two favorite drives are...

Arizona route 89A between Flagstaff and Sedona. This road is in Oak Creek Canyon and has a lot of hairpin turns. :driving:

Route 1A between North Hampton, New Hampshire and Portsmouth. This road follows the New Hampshire seacoast. :driving:
