| | | Washed and Waxed: '07 Tahoe and '06 VW Bug
These are two of my first clients.
They both, once again, recieved the same process. I polished them both about a month ago so no aggressive polishing here. I did do something different this time. I had some Woolite mixed 2:1 and when I started on the Tahoe, I pre-soaked it entirely with the mix. I let it sit for 5 minutes and took my Karcher to it. Holy smokes! Bugs and road grime slid off! Couldn't believe it. Plus it did not remove any of my previous wax as it still beaded. Just wanted to let you know about this find.
Here's what else they got....
Meguiar's NXT
(Added 2 teaspoons of Dawn for extra cleaning power.)
FK1 #2180 Sealant
(Used Edge2K Blue Pad at #4. Let sit for 15 minutes and remove by PC and MF bonnet. Waited 1 hour before applying wax.)
Souveran Liquid Wax
(Used Edge2K White Pad at #3. Let haze and removed by hand.)
Other Products used:
FK1 Protectant
(Dash, leather, and all plastic.)
Woolite 8:1
(Used to clean all plastic and leather. Wiped down with clean, wet MF to remove any soap left. Also used to clean Bug's rag top.)
Woolite 2:1
(Used to presoak all exterior panels.....WORKED!)
Armor All Extreme Tire Gel
(Two coats. About 30 minutes between each)
Megs APC 4:1
(Used to remove bugs on front, windshield and mirrors. Also used on tires, wheels, and inner fenders.)
Stoners Invisible Glass
FK1 #425
(Used on LCD screens, instrument cluster, laminated plastic trim, and all exterior glass.)

I wet the top first, sprayed on, agitated with a brush, and let sit for 5 minutes. I then pressure washed it off. Takes awhile to remove all the soap but well worth it.
I'm gonna be testing Woolite on other areas of vehicles. So far works well on bugs too! The flying ones that is! |

| | | At the risk of sounding like a boob, you mix 4 parts woolite to 1 part water?
