I'd like to give a shout out to all the Autogeek crew on tonight's show car garage and say how much I appreciate you sharing your knowledge and skill for all of us to learn by. Max, Mike, Todd, Yancy,Meghan, Nick, Hink, and the rest of tonight's gang...THANK YOU!!!!

It's a pleasure to be able to watch things from start to finish and witness spectacular results.

When Yancy started on those beauty shots I felt like Ric Flair...

...Woooooooooooo...man that paint shimmers....Holy Smokes did that flake pop or what.

nice job Mike. here's a recent youtube of a Ferrari Enzo and Lamborghini Aventador both detailed by Kelly Harris of KDS over here in the UK, who is truly Jedi when it comes to his detailing skill set and a long time Gtechniq convert. Customer of the Aventador cannot get over how dirt repellent the coating is and he's a guy who always used super expensive carnaubas on his previous Lamborghinis.

It seems there was a shipping discount also with code last night, correct? I ordered almost $200.00 worth of stuff (pre-discount) and only paid $7.99 shipping. Thanks for the great deal. I can't resist these sales, always get at least a few things.

These were a brand new towel we're brining in, I was using samples. I really like them for this procedure.

When they're in stock I'm confident Nick will post a new product announcement.


Trista approves too...

Applying Gtechniq is so easy even a Trista gets professional results her first time...

just a quick note about after care - use of quick detailers/waterless washes etc.

EXO is fine with these. The only thing I would point out is that all of these products are putting something on the finish so that the surface characteristics of water repellency, feel etc. will be from this and not the EXO underneath.

My personal preference is to wash EXO using a pure high quality shampoo such as G-Wash, this way you get the maximum durability from the organic layer and benefit from the great water and dirt repellency of EXO.

If you do want to use a qd type product, Gtechniq C1.5 Silo Seal would be a great choice as it has excellent surface functionality.

HTH!

Just found your follow-up post Rob, thanks for stressing the above points for all our EXO users.

***Update***


Hink's bringing his Candied Mustang with the EXO coating to Autogeek for a new project we're working on. This will be the first time I've seen it since he took his EXO coated beauty home.


It will be interesting to see how the finish is still looking and I'm gong to apply some Silo Seal while it's here...
