    I will try that, thanks

    While Bead it Up seems to leave a nice layer of protection I have had the same issues and user experience with it that I had with TWCWW, just doesn't seem to play well with Lexus paint in my circumstances

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

    After a couple days of rain and nesting all over the EN the FNW was MUCH needed tonight, plus I got to try 2 new products, let's goWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    For the pre-wash I tried P&S Frostbite in my IK Foam Pro 12 (4 oz to 1 gallon) and got after it. The directions say 1:10, so you'd think I'd use 12 oz to 128 oz, I knew better, says it's "high foaming", plus it's a higher pH, so I started with 1/3 of that and I'm glad I did, this layered the EN in a clingy Foam! Because the sun was setting and about 55 degrees I let it dwell but it was already breaking down the staining from the nesting and twigs (the sight of this was killing me). I then rinsed the EN down and moved to the 2BM.

    Now for the 2BM I used another new P&S product, Inspiration Radiance coating maintence wash. I will say I've only used it as a pre-wash previously, this was the first time in the 2BM wash. I actually used 2 oz to about 3 gallons and it doesn't suds up but it's not really going to but I'll say next time I'm going 4 ounces. This product is pretty slick, even at that ratio but my pre-wash did such a great job that I got away with going light on the soapWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I had a great experience with this "dynamic duo" from P&S, wonder how many YouTubers have tried this combo togetherWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Random 6in snowstorm and 30 degrees to kick off the weekend. What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    But I couldn't resist some of the AGO weekend sale items. BOGO, discounts and some coupon codes. Not a half bad push by them after a long time of no interest. I grabbed the DP coating and some PBL items - never hurts to have stuff to play with when the snow finally stops!

    BUSY DAY!! After cutting the grass, did the weekly Maintenace wash on the truck. Then gave her Rav4 a good wash. All in including grass was about 4.5 hours out of my Saturday. It is officially MILLER TIME now!

    Those kinds of exercises are very rare down here! I think I’m the only one for miles around who does both of those
    Treat it like it's the only one in the world.

    Yep. Even the weekends are repetitive. LOL. That is why I wish we had a 3-day weekend.

    For sure. Got eyes on a new 24 Tundra TRD PRO before it was sold. Beast of a truck. Waiting for the TACOMA TRD PROS to hit the lot later this year.
