What did you do detailing wise today?

and gave away two polish angel details, one via raffle and one in the white elephant
(not a fancy presentation but it was the hottest item once opened & discovered and it was sitting on the table until the last 3 people picked gifts out)
 
Bucket wash on the Camaro followed up with CarPro Ech2o as a quick detailer. The gloss and slickness is great with it on coated paint.

Fished up on the BMW. This morning I went to open the garage and didn`t realize how humid it was. When I opened the garage it started dropping water on the car and had it coated in moisture. I was quite pissed so I close the door. Walked around through the front door and dried the garage door off. But it still turned out beautiful.

I applied two layers of Menzerna/Jescar Powerlock to the exhaust chute of the Honda Snowblower. Yup, two layers. Snow will just fly out of there now I`m guessing and I bet it`s been a quite a while since Ronkh spritzed up his snowblower. OK, ok, ok, I`m giggling a bit.

coldest day of the year so far
35 degrees outside and windy

i couldn`t take the nasty car and i cant drive my truck until i get a new headlight in

faced with the thought of having to drivd a milky white black challenger to work all week and noticing no rain in forecast i had to wash it

i bundled up and even put on rubber dishwashing gloves

2bm wash with kwazar foam soak
Poorboy`s super slick and suds
spray and rinse wheel cleaner (needed + agitation but i wasnt messing with it- I`ll rw the wheels later with warm water)

used my Montana wash brush

cleaned up what it missed with one micro quartered and dipped into the wash bucket

pulled car into garage and wiped down with a spritz of Carpro ech20 1:15 abd Pfm towels

looked at car under my led swirl light and noticed i had created some fine marring. not sure if it was the wash brush or in the past few weeks. i havent put that light on the sides in a while.

that was the first time i used the boars hair wash brush on it, perhaps letting it soak for 15mins in the bubbly wasnt ling enough, or maybe i caused the micromarring some other time

maybe i caused it by letting two different dealership appraisal department guys look at it and drive it a bit recently

i swear that paint can micromarr in a parking lot all by itself...

either way, i now couldn`t leave that marring to show up in the daylight tomorrow so I decided to go back to two of my old friends for help. haven`t seen them since earlier this spring and did two coats of each

probablem hid for now

just have wheels left to rinseless wash, will deal with the white colored barrels later

and the plastic along the bumpers and lower doors is nasty

im letting the garage heat up via the heat from the house

might open up some of my new PA spray products for the roof and hood as they didn`t receive anything, they stayed clean and don`t show any type of micromarring

heres a few pics

After the BMW got picked up I decided it was time to reorganize some things. Next paycheck I`ll be buying a couple of cabinets because I hate these shelves.

Washed the truck today. PB BnB Spray on tires. I like that better than the gel for the big tires, but the gel is better for the car. Then topped with PA High Gloss. Don`t know what to think of it. It did up the gloss, but kinda grabby. Hopefully it slicks up in the AM. Really liking the Griots trim Shine.

Enough rambling here`s the good stuff :

Very nice! Makes me miss my `02 Supercrew lariat 4x4. Loved that truck. Sold it to get a "commuter car" :wacko:

Grabby ????

Wait till am, but never felt grabby to me.

Yeah, I spread it out all over the truck first. Then went for a once over buff as I do with Zirkon and Viking Spritz, but with this the towel dragged instead of gliding over the paint. It definitely was a surprise.

Interesting. I`ve only used it as a rinseless. Wash a section, then dry.....
