I went to the local parts yard to find a black truck lid to test new products.

I should do this for times when I am particularly bored... how much did a trunk lid run you?

WW=Waterless Wash. I was trying out Meg's Waterless wash see how it would work on a panel that's been sitting in the elements for awhile. It works wonderfully. Yes used a Nanoskin auto scub mitt instead of clay, just playing around with different products. LOL gum tree's are everywhere here clean the driveway off and couple hours later it's covered again...

Since I work for the City in which the yard is located they charge me 20.00 for each reg is 50.00 each, but I'm going to trade services for other panels. detail their car's... Next time I'm taking a pick-up truck lol.

I used MF pads along with Hydro Tech pads for this test panel.

WOW great result. I'd like to try the MF pad on the 3401. Interesting you used the Meg twins. Can't argue with the result, impressive. I've got a yard local here charging I believe $30 for a hood or trunk lid. Many will take a panel back refund a core charge or let you trade it in.

On my next visit I will ask if he would trade for more, good idea. I was playing around with Meg's just to see what I could do. also have M100 to try next. Out of all the combo's I used M105 was the hardest to remove. Sonax and Menz where just about equal. Loved how Sonax had very little dusting and very easy to use.

That is an awesome idea! How much did the trunk lid cost you?
