    Re: 1999 Tahoe -> CarPro Essence + Cquartz TiO2 + Gliss

    How do you like immolube? Do you prefer it over something like ONR/soapy water/QD?

    Love those old 2 door Tahoe/Blazers. I wanted one so bad back in HS. Did you do any work on the interior or engine?

    Immolube is actually pretty good. Lots of lubricity. I have not used a QD in a long time as clay lube. I used to use D155 and M34 long ago but after I used that up I never bought any more. I can't recall what it felt like with ONR. Soapy water works fine as well. One thing with immolube is that it will get sudsy especially with a clay alternative. So be sure to have plenty of towels to mop up the residue. It will leave a residue but that is easily remedied with a prep wipe such as Eraser. So as of right now I prefer immolube.

    The engine bay was not that bad. I have a link to what was used on the first post.

    We just cleaned up the interior yesterday. The entire interior needed a good cleaning. My uncle did not take care of it very well.

    What a nice thing to do for your brother. You did a very nice job on it. GM's Light Pewter Metallic is one of my all time favorite colors made. I love the stance and wheels, and of course those finished sun shots. Water beading looks excellent.

    The surface is hydrophobic at 2 months. Making it easy to wash. The self cleaning effect has done well. FYI his Tahoe sits outside 24/7.

    Took the following photos of the tight water beading after the wash.



    That's some very nice beading!

    Awesome work!

    The Tahoe is officially gone. Guy from San Diego took a 3 hour train ride to get it and a 2 hour drive home.

    My bro sold it for $9500
