    I’m not saying this is probable, but sometimes I wonder if some of the neighbors don’t wash their cars outside because of how extensive we are when we do it. Kinda like they wouldn’t want to look like they’re doing it wrong.

    Honestly I don’t look at anyone doing it wrong because I don’t judge. I’m just happy to see someone putting the effort at keeping their car clean. We were all noobs 1 day.

    1 of my brothers used to wash his car all the time, but since I got more seriously into detailing about 10yrs. ago he no longer washes his car in front of me at all. I think he takes his truck to a car wash once in a while or pays me to do it.

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Used Wet Coat on an unprotected car. I still really enjoy using this product.

    It sounds counterintuitive and not possible, but I often think I get more even coverage using Wet Coat than your WOWO sealants.

    Give me Can Coat and Wet Coat I am good to go. Great combo.

    I haven't used Wet Coat for about 10 years, I had some go bad, it left a streaky finish that was a real PITA to fix. I don't know if it was a bad batch, or more likely a storage issue, I'd had it a year or so and where it was stored got to over 100f in summer. I do have 303 Touchless Sealant on the shelf currently, and I've never had an issue with it, but we've moved house and I have better storage now. I don't know if they've been tested back to back, but they seem comparable to me. I've also been able to get 303 TS at auto stores here for a while, Wet Coat had only online availability till very recently.

    As for coverage, it does seem to get in places other stuff can't, it's almost like magic, I mean using high pressure water to make something coat and stick to a surface seems counterintuitive.

    Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    After a dreary day of rain yesterday and hundreds of leaves on my car (ok...dozens) I just got back from my touch-free wash. I got gas today because at Shell on Bears gameday you get .25 off of premium, combined with my usual discount, it's. 30 cents off. I didn't have my IK Foam Pro 12 with me but I did but I did have my 1000 ML Kwazzer filled with N914 WW, so I pre-treated the entire car because of wet leave stains...car came out greatWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    It really saved me some time - spray, rinse, done. Left some gloss behind too. It allowed met to air dry the car which I always try to do. I don't look at the spray/rinse products as durable sealants. They're just convenient. I heard good things about most of them including the 303.
