Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
Took out the carpeted mats, vac'd out the car and sprayed some Wurth fresh scent in and installed the WeatherTechs. I then wiped down the entire interior with Mckee's interior detailer and applied our stupid Village sticker to my window, atleast it matches my cars color

All 4 brushes in my bucket we called to serve here, everything was DIRTY Once all 4 brushes did their magic I rinsed down using the Worx Hydroshot, it's been quite a while since I had to use it but now that the outside water has been turned off it's my go to once again. The tires and wheels cleaned up nicely, added a coat of Sonax Rim Shield 2 weeks ago, so it's all good, plus there's a coat of 303 Touchless Sealant under that even.
To wash the car I tried Griots Garage Brillant Shine rinseless wash as a WW. I read in another thread recently where you pour out 18 ounces of water from a gallon and add 18 oz of the Griot's Garage Brillant Shine rinseless wash in there. For this I'm always going to use distilled and I always have a fresh gallon of distilled water on hand. I mixed it up and poured it into my 1000 ML Kwazzer and got after it. I had 5 of DPC's edgeless mf towels and a Griot's Garage PFM for the final buff. I must say this did a great job of cleaning the paint and since the 303 graphene is only 2 weeks old the job was made even easier and my God the gloss... WOW
I used this mix on the door jams and engine bay too, so now its C L E A N I dressed the tires with 303 Tire Balm to finish things off. Later I'm going to vac out the car and swap in my WeatherTech floorliners, yep, it's that time of the year again

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
Spent most of the day on the Fusion, as I really haven't given it a proper wash in two weeks.
Gave it a good soak with Griots Surface Wash. I let that dwell for a while while it washed the wheels with Diablo wheel cleaner and the tires with Bleche White.
When all rinsed off, I did a two bucket wash with Mothers Car Wash. I then dried her off, using Ech2o(WW mix) as a drying aid.
I then dressed the tires with Gyeon Tire. And while I was down there, I sprayed down the wheel wells with Griots Undercarriage Spray.
I then got after my steering wheel with Mothers Foaming Leather cleaner. It really needed a good clean. I then treated the seats with Griots Leather Care.

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
I also noticed a scuff on the front bumper that I needed to get after. Used 3D One for the first time. Not bad for using it by hand.
Now ready for Cars And Coffee tomorrow!

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
I went browsing the used car ads and came across this one vehicle that had me very excited. It was cheap, local and the paint needed lots of dream paint work. I made the best offer I could and felt comfortable with but the seller declined. I did take this one picture through..... You can't even see through windshield and the paint was flat with no reflection.
