tried some new products in the past few days and got some reviews...
ok autogeek has been sending me boxes like crazy this month! ill try to list them so i can remember everything cause, theres a lot!
autogeek 6 gallon wash bucket
Edge ShMitt white/yellow
WG wheel cleaner
WG tire gel
OXO brushes
diamondite clay n shine
here we go.
the autogeek 6 gallon wash bucket. washed 2 cars with it tonight and ...its a bucket. not a whole lot to say there LOL. the wheels roll easy when pushed but didnt roll down my driveway which was great. the lid will be a big plus in the future i can tell. the hangers too will be a big help in future washes:applause:
for 30 bucks, id buy it again
Not a whole lot to say about hte shmitt that hasnt been said. its a great product and if you havent gotten one yet, id recommend getting one. i did get some grease or oil on it and its a little tough to get it out but its a small spot...
i havent encountered any nasty wheels so i cant comment on the wheel cleaner too much ...the wheels are coming out very clean and i would guess this gel is doing its job. ill continue using it on other details and hope that somebody has some dirty wheels. my aunts vehicle had some dirty tires and it cleaned them pretty good.
after that i dressed with the black diamond tire gel. great stuff! very shiny and so far has lasted 1 week and 1 wash on my tires....ill see how much longer they last
next is my new oxo wheel brushes. im very impressed with them. ive never used brushes before and i was skeptical... i didnt think they would do as good of a job. well i was wrong because the wheel brush is very soft and gets all the nooks and crannies. also got a deep reach 11 inch brush and its a bit stiffer than i anticipated but it gets the inside of the wheels pretty good... i think it should be longer though and not as thick as the longer one they have for sale, just my opinion i guess. also used the OXO tire brush and will continue to do so, works very well
now, my FREE GIFT! diamondite clay and shine. i was skeptical. very skeptical. ive used the yellow sponge before so i knew it was safe but i just didnt think this stuff would work too well.i was surprised at the outcome. it really clayed the paint haha. i used the provided wax but i was doing this in the cold and at dark tonight so... it looked better in the spotlights!
sorry i wasnt super detailed but it was a lot of products i tried out so if you have questions or comments please, share
