What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Clay’d the horizontal surfaces on the PPF’d & coated black car.

So after the 100 mile round trip "trying" to get tpms-gate taken care of I ran the EN through the touch-free wash and came home. After lunch I was bored and went outside to look at the car...it had helicopters and these buds that looked like catapillars and saw these "pollen bombs", I was triggered and brought out the artillery️

First thing I did was broke out the mini Master Blaster and blew off the car of all the foliage, much better! Next up were the tires & wheels and I felt like using the TWHS Hyper Foam, it's been a minute since I last used it and was rewarded with CLEAN tires and wheels, 3 brushes used...nice

For up was the IK Foam Pro 12 filled with Bilt-Hamber Touchless and a gallon of distilled, emptied the tank, let dwell for a solid 5 minutes, used my small brush around the badges and stamped N logo in the side skirt, a little extra clean here. I then rinsed the EN down and got ready for what's next

While wet I used DIY Detail Quick Beads on the wheels and entire EN, one panel at a time to boost the protection as the EN will be sitting till Monday, so good cure time here...next

Once dried using the mini Master Blaster and large CG's drying towel I turned to the tires, they were pretty stripped down, so out came Pure:est tire dressing, this stuff is AWESOME! I applied 1 good coat using that brush Guz reviewed on this channel, works soooo well

I finished up vacuuming out the interior and applying DIY Detail Interior Ceramic, all panels, seats (leather & Alcantara bits), the Alcantera e-brake/ handle/armrest/shiftknob and boot...product works on EVERYTHING inside the car, one of DIY's highest quality products without a doubt

I got so caught up in doing all this and forgot to look at the engine bay, I'm all over it Taz...pic coming up, gotta grab my IK sprayer w/N914 in it, stay "tuned"

So my buddy Tas asked "do you keep the engine bay like the exterior" and this made me think about showing the engine bay. Now to be honest, no, I don't keep it like the exterior.

I usually wipe it down from time to time, it's NEVER trashed and grimy, that's for sure, so I'd say it's lightly dusty at its worst.

Upon lifting the hood I was right, it was lightly dusty, so I sprayed down the entire engine bay w/N914 WW, let it dwell and wiped it down. Once that was done I grabbed some TriNova tire dressing and sprayed down some of the plastic and rubber bits, rubbed them in using a cotton applicator and a small brush to work in some of the tighter bits...done

You really suck at detailing, Roger.

I zoomed in to the 1000th power and saw a speck of pollen adjacent to, and just under the oil dipstick.

Could you PLEASE try a little harder to not post hack pics like these??

This is unacceptable.

I checked the FJ after foaming it yesterday, it didn't need a 2B wash, although the wheels and tyres still need some extra attention. I gave the paint a spray and wipe with Ech2o, it was all that was required. I did discover some battle damage though, it wasn't obvious during the foam and rinse yesterday. There's a 6-8 inch pinstripe above the right rear wheel. 2 rock scrapes on the rear left door, and another rock scrape above the rear left wheel. I'll work on them during the week, I knew there'd be something to see after some of the noises I heard while on the track. It won't stop me going out and doing it again.

I’m glad it did! I don’t think your EN could get any cleaner lol

Have you tried leveling Darkside down after a bit of time? I assume you don't like the sling and that's especially a NO NO on that beauty️

I’ve haven’t had any sling so far. Griots just applies easier and seems to be more even. I’ll try leveling it next time.
