What did you do detailing wise today?

Nah no need for holes in the wall really. I leave my drain open and got a plastic extension I threaded on there ,then threaded a 90 degree elbow (one side female to thread on extension and other side with a plastic hose adapter) and hooked a clear flexible hose leading to a large piece of Tupperware that I only need to drain a few times a week or sometimes daily depending on humidity. I`ll take a picture and post it in a few moments.

Since yours will be in the garage, I`d use a bucket to hold the water and that`ll buy you more time in between disposing of it which takes a few seconds.

Here`s my setup:

Notice the unit is sitting up higher to allow proper gravity for water to just drip on the bowl. You could set your unit up on something sturdy (the unit may shift a tiny bit here and there gradually due to compressor kicking on and off, doesn`t happen often) and slightly wider than the unit`s size, then have a bucket catching the water right underneath it. This way you won`t have to worry about drilling holes through your garage wall at all PLUS you can relocate the unit to any corner/space whenever you feel like it. See if you guys can insulate the exhaust hose as well (with some heat retardant fabric or similar) because it gets hot,which adds up to affecting the efficiency.

Getting a project dropped off early is awesome. Gives you more time to make the customer that much happier. Have fun! And I can`t wait to see that purple sparkle.

Mk2 21 is a beast. Knocked out roof and trunk in no time with that 7 inch pad after I did the edges with my Mini

so no pics but i did interior of a early 90s 1500 extended cab work truck which customers first response was "is this my truck", lol. and started a white 2001 f150 which is a full detail and it hasnt been done since it was new leaving the dealership, the menzerna intro kit sure cuts the years of oxidation out and gives a nice shine then its gonna get wolfgang deep gloss sealant3.0 afterward
 
Used Uber RW for the first time today while doing my first ever rinseless wash. I used the GDWM with Cobra 530 towels and it worked great! No pics unfortunately, but it left a great shine and no dirt, residue, or streaks. Best part is I still have more solution and clean towels to do a Cayenne tomorrow morning, and maybe my car if I have enough left
