What did you do detailing wise today?

didnt really detail today but i did play with my new gg6" on my dads beat up, neglected `97 civic. the paint looked so bad it looked as if it had no life. but there are spots now that prove otherwise, maybe later this weekend ill get it buffed all the way
 
fixed some bird bombs that had been left too long...the nano is also a great way to do test spots if you have all the Rupes pads and tools :)

Gonna go around the car with my nano and mini tonight so tomorrow I can just start off with my lhr12 and 21mk2

I think i will go another step and use essence via white pad to really bring the gloss out before I put gtech csl then exo v2

A UBER Rinseless wash to get ready for the show................

I took a lot of pictures to try to get a Merlin shot... (kinda tough with white, so I got "semi" Merlin shots"

Coming from a black car...I bet the white is much less stressful to keep clean. Looks awesome!

Maybe, but it is ?less rewarding? As well as people who know cars jaws dropped when they saw how it looked, and more so when they saw how easy it really was to care for. And I don`t have any more good Merlin Shots.
 
I bought some plastic stackable drawers from Wally World. Now I can finally get my towels and pads organized. Before they were all in Rubbermaid tubs and stuff on the bottom stayed there. I have to get motivated to get organized. Love the pictures of the lawnmower. I`m waiting until Fall to do anything like that.

You will get over it fast and come to appreciate the color of white. Trust me when I say this :). Not having Merlin shots is not the end of the world.

Then what do I take pics of? How do judge the "look"? How do I show off ????

May I ask, are different types of tape deliberate? I understand dif. widths.
Click to expand...

the green tape was purchased from ACC (I find it releases MUCH easier than the blue tape from lowes (3m brand)

I have different sizes etc

I used the green on the edges b/c I had a few strips left over from masking off the doors (then used the much wider blue tape to fill in the gaps)

that green tape was purchased specifically because my blue 3m delicate surfaces tape will leave a little bit of residue on the rubber if left on for more than an hour

the green tape does not leave the same residue and is also the perfect width for a lot of the mopar vinyl my buddies use
