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

    Did an Absolute RW on my g/f's Cruze this afternoon. I pre-treated the tires & wheels w/Griot's Garage tire/wheel/mat cleaner and they really needed it (she off-roaded the passenger side tires)What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I finished it off using Griot's Garage Best of Show detailer and maybe later I'll add some tire dressing to her ContinentalsWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Neighbor found an 11K mile Z3. He replaced the 1997 dated tires. I polished it with 3D One with a CBeast. After Xpel on the front I'll apply Gyeon Can Coat.

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

    Took my car to the touchless/self wash car wash. I had been there previously and used tokens in the self wash bay. But the machine didn't register them so I had to use my credit card. I called them and explained it and they said to stop by during the hours someone is there and they'd give me a free wash. So today I got the $20 extreme wash for free. Car still came out dirty and I think the pressure is so high in the touchless wash that it removed some Dr. Colorchip repairs or worsened some rock chips. So there will be some touchup to do.

    Did a RW when I got home. Mixed up 2 gallons of Griot's BFRW. Filled my sprayer with a half gallon and put a gallon in my bucket. I dumped anything left in the bucket and sprayer when I was done since I don't know when the next wash would be (unlike summer time).

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

    Hmmmm. Should have taken some pictures.

    I started out with plans to give my car and the wife's their first hand wash since the cold weather set in back in December. Then my daughter came home from college for the weekend. So...I ended up washing all three to include tire dressing and a bit of an LSP boost. Finished up yesterday with a quick clean of the interior of my car with a vacuuming, wipe down, leather cleaner on the steering wheel, and cleaned the all weather mats.

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

    We've had light rain all day, and having driven the Qashqai I realised the wipers were performing sub-par. So I took them off and cleaned up the rubber, used a product called Rubber Roller Restorer, it's supposed to remove contamination from rubber rollers in office machines. You can see in the second shot all the gunk it removed from the blades. Last shot shows the blades looking as good as new, these blades are original, about 8 years old.

    I looked at going to the launch party, but it would be a 14 hour drive round trip.

    Took a long weekend. After getting back from a oil change and tire rotation, gave it a good wash and interior. Detailed the engine this time around. Finished with flex wax as a rinse wax and #253 on tires. Truck is a close to being new as it's going to get!
