    Yeah, it needs a vacuum as well, but it's too late for that kind of noise.

    Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    After a total shite day of weather yesterday a RW was in order after dinner this eveningWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I reached for Labocosmetica Idrosave RW and Dr. Beasley Paint Hero for a drying aid...WOWWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I'm sure I mentioned how VERY impressed I am with Labocosmetica Idrosave RW, even made up a 32 oz bottle of "FrankenDetailer" using it. It cleaned my paint well and while dragging the sponge across the surface it leaves that "protection trail" behind it, so there's NO mistaken that this product leaves behind protection What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I decided to use a drying aid, even though this product dries VERY well and I reached for Dr. Beasly Paint Hero, a product I used previously based on the amount left in the smallish bottle but don't remember too much about it other than it's $30.00 for that smallish bottleWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    That said...WOW! This Paint Hero is A M A Z I N G!! I sprayed a small amount per panel, dried with my medium Gauntlet and buffed dry with one of smaller Griot's Garage PFM's and I must say the GLOSS & SLICKNESS...WOWWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I'm sure the gloss & slickness was doubled because of the Labocosmetica Idrosave but still, amazing combo. I have to admit I was harsh on this Dr. Beasley product and for that I must say I AM SORRYWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Any future users of Paint Hero need to know this, it spreads thick so less is more AND you've gotta have a 2nd towel to buff dry but the results...MY GODWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    The boss is out of town for 10 days so I thought I would take advantage of the living room to get my microfibers organized

    The last few times I did laundry I just kind of dumped towels in the appropriate bin and they had gotten jumbled so I refolded and organized things

    I need to change the spacing on one of the shelving units that holds the totes so I can lift the lid with one hand and put folded towels in the right stack with the other instead of having to pull the whole tote out

    Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I tested my new glass cleaner, Garage Therapy /ONE Glass, on the FJ this afternoon, it has lots of water spotting from the rain over the last couple of weeks.

    Followed the directions on the bottle, mostly. After shaking the bottle, I sprayed it on the glass and spread it with a general purpose MF, then wiped it clear and dry with a proper glass MF. Which worked very well, minimum effort, great streak free results.

    The scent seemed very familiar, so I checked my shelf and it smells exactly the same as both Rain-X Glass Cleaner and Invisible Glass Premium Glass Cleaner.

    I am getting the FJ done bit by bit, but I'm waiting till after Saturday for a whole vehicle contact wash, rain is predicted.

    Fireball sent me a sample of Nappa Coat, Pirouette and Glass with my order of Wax Off. I have been using Gyeon ID on interior lately as I prefer nothing on the interior surfaces. However I wanted to try Nappa Coat being it was a free sample.

    Really nice product. Sprayer mists the product very well. It darkens the interior vinyl surfaces, spreads and levels extremely well. Leaves a dark matte non greasy finish. Adds Sio2 as well. Really nice product.
