What did you do detailing wise today?

From Terrible to Tolerable. Notice that the wheel is so dirty, you can`t tell that it has that curved shape between the spokes. Used FK 221-D and IronX.

It was a cool 50 (cloudy and a breeze) at 9am, but wanted to clean my MKZ covered with salt. I decided to power rinse then foam with AF Avalanche (strong dose) then went into the garage where it was warmer and no wind to do a rinseless wash.

680 miles south it was hot. I sat in a puddle of water cleaning the lower panels of a car, with the hose misting my bare legs, and it felt good. America is great, if you don`t like the weather, just get in a car and drive! We go up to North Georgia for our fix of cold weather.

Thanks! Decon, wheels, engine bay, polished and sealed. I am going to try and do a write up on it in the next few days.

Hey - what rack are you using to hang your polishers? I can see them in the background. Custom?

Yes, it`s a KXK Dynamics polisher holder. It is almost too small for all my stuff lol. I will buy another one at some point. IMHO, well worth the money.
 
Tested out the KXK punch. Also bought another HF da. Figured I`d save some money for a while before I jump into the other two Rupes machines I want. At least I won`t be swapping out 3" and 5" backing plates now.

Did side by side test zephir vs m101 vs m100 for my bmw test hood. Used Duetto and Megs mf. M100 is very weak compared to those two, it corrected maybe 70% while zephir did 95-100%. M101 i used inferior pad, but it still beated the ```` out of M100. Im going to sell my M100, i have better midrange compounds.

Not available in Finland or Europe. M101 smell, dusts, is thick but it works. Zephir kicks ass too. Also Nanolex heavy cut is gream, but is dat and i like smat more for hammered paints. Im going to order fast correct someday. Does it cut more than m101?
