What did you do detailing wise today?

Washed my car Saturday. Woke up sunday to go get a full throttle and when I walked outside I found the front of my car is covered in hard water stains. The stupid sprinklers at my condo apparently are set to go off every night now. Looks like during the weekend im going to have to park in a different spot. I took a quick pic half way thru cleaning just so everyone could see just how important waterless washes really are.

Still looks great Ron.

I got bored last night and decided to polish and put 2 coats of wax on my driver, 3 wood & hybrid.
 
had to park the garage queen outside for a few days. decided to give it a gary dean style wash with pinnacle liquid gloss rinseless wash (really love this stuff-and great smell)

didn't touch the wheels today, save that for something to do tomorrow while sitting up here helping my friend out at his retail shop this week





 
Wheels sprayed with S100 Total Cycle Cleaner, then brushed with a small wheel brush.
Washed with Wolfgang Auto Bathe with a Carpro Merino Wash Mitt via Mr. Clean Autodry.

I just vacuumed the interior of my DD, wiped surfaces down with 1z Cockpit Premium, and cleaned/protected the seats and steering wheel with Mothers VLR.

I also admired my new arrivals...

Nothing today but I washed my daily yesterday. I decided to use sonus acrylic spritz to boost the klasse sealant that is on the car.
 
This was from Sunday before detailing. My mom wanted a detail done before selling the car so I decided to clean up the headlights as well. Wet sanded with water and 1500 grit over a sponge. I like having the flexibility of the sponge rather than a block on some lights. Polished with HD Uno on a LC thin wool purple pad and finish polished with HD Polish on LC white pad. Topped off with CG Top Coat Sealant & Wax which probably wont last very long.

I was in the garage and used a cell phone camera for all the pictures and this 50/50 shot was really the only one that didn't come out blurry so no finished product pics yet.

Last night....washed Sally, dried and then put on a coat of Optimum spray wax, BF tire gel on the tires, and Sonax to the fender wells. Got caught in the rain on Sunday on the way home from a car show. Good news was I hardly had to run the wipers on the way home thanks to BF Poly seal on the windows.
 
Maybe by .25 mph haha. There was some static build on them when I pulled them out of the head covers before I did it so who knows. I am retarded enough though that I took them over to the sink after and tested the sheeting for a minute lol. I'm glad my wife wasn't home to see me.
