    Some poor engineering went on when my house got built. If I’m in the alley it is ever so slightly slopes to the center and the drains downhill. But with snow melting and slush everywhere I was trying to hustle so the neighbors would quit splashing slop all over the car.

    I’m waiting for the foam surface prep. I’d get a gallon but I already have 3 gallons worth of soap to use up. Might have to add apc or degreaser if it gets like that again.

    Oh most definitely it is gone. McKees 10 min paint sealant lasted like 6 weeks. I washed it up and put hydro blue on it. So mad.

    The wifes in the other hand was not degraded but the crud was extremely heavy. All is better now though

I like it better than wetcoat. Dried both using pfms. Going to do engine bay on wifes before it goes in for a service. Hopefully vacuum mine out tomorrow and wipe down inside.

    I bought both at the same time and I have to agree with you hydro over wet coat...both still good though

    N-914 rinseless. Then Cleaned tires 6 times to coat with Tacs system tire coat Did 3 passes with griots foaming tire cleaner. Problem was after 1st cleaning foam was not browning did a 3rd time no browning. Forgot I ordered some 303 T&R, hit it with that. Brown as $#!T. 3passes good. Next tire I hit with the 303. Then griots foam was white. Then 303.... brown foam. It may be good for light duty but if your gonna coat your tires go with something else. I chose these to as both were suppose to be safe in all WHEEL finishes. Didn’t want to stain matte wheels.

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Not what did I do today, but what I’m planning on doing tomorrow.

    I’m planning on using H-D Speed on my new truck to remove the spider scratches from the dealership.

    The weather is supposed to be between 36-40 degrees when I plan on doing it.

    Will the colder temps have an ill effect on the product or outcome??
    Should I wait until the weather is in the 50’s or warmer?

    Any and all responses are greatly appreciated.

    I'd try a test spot first.

    If on a clean surface, I'm sure the Speed would work fine in the lower temps (though not ideal).

    And I would also think the removal would be compromised somewhat in the lower temps. But this is only me speculating. (I love Speed, and have used it often. But always above 50 degrees)
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.
