    To the people who have Detail Guardz...

    Do you find yourself using them all the time? Or has the novelty worn off?

    I’m thinking about pulling the trigger on them but would like some real unsponsored feedback.

    Are those the tire things? Pass. We used to use them, but stopped months ago. Now I set up the wash buckets on the far corner of the car about 3' away. We pull the hose around the bucket. Same principle, less finicky.

    I use them. But I only care for 2 cars so it’s not like I’m using it multiple times a day, every day. I like it because it keeps my power washer hose moving. Without Detail Guardz the hose gets stuck under the tires every time.

    Really? What did you hate about them? How are they finicky?

    I went on youtube trying to check out reviews, but they’re all by people who received them for free and therefore obviously brown nosing with nothing but praise for them...

    Re: To the people who have Detail Guardz...

    Two ways really. First, they don't stick under all tires the same. If the tire doesn't have a big lug on the outside, they kind of come out easily. Then the hose can pull them out. Also, if the hose kinks, you can't really tell because it's under the car. At least with the bucket system, you can see the kink and unf**k the hose.

    I didn't hate them. I just didn't think they were worth the effort. I could see if you were doing one car a week.

    I’ve got about 2hrs. to decide.. Things are on sale and it’s the only way I’ll ever consider buying them.

    I've thought about these also but have always passed because of what Sudsmobile said. It just seems like a slippery slope with adding more and more detail equipment.
