I have 1/2 a bottle left.
LOL nah, I just pulled it back in the garage.
TRUST me, it doesn't need one... my husband drives that thing like he's being chased by Satan himself 100% of the time.

We picked up my Dad's new G90 today and gave it the Polish Angel Treatment. 2 layers of Master Sealant topped with High Gloss. This thing glistens!

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
You know what time it is...FNW time
So for this wash tonight I mixed it up a bit. I started with using Auto-Fanatic foaming wheel cleaner in the engine bay, yes, the engine bay. I noticed dirt in the corners, it is painted in there and also has plastic and rubber bits and since the AF foaming wheel cleaner works on painted wheels and tires I went for it. I foamed everything down, let it dwell and rinsed down with the Worx hydroshot w/o 5he wand attached, less pressure. Once I was done I closed the hood and moved to the next step in the process.
I sprayed CG's Diablo on the wheel faces and barrels and 303 Tire and Rubber cleaner on the tires and wheelwells and let it dwell a bit. Pulled the Mothers Tire and wheel brush out of some leftover soapy water and scrubbed the tires down, then grabbed the Speed Master and got after the wheels, spokes, barrels and faces and rinsed down with the Worx hydroshot. Now it was time to wash the car.
For this I mixed up 3.5 gallons of Griot's Garage Brillant Shine rinseless wash, used 4 ounces of product. Dunked my 1000 ml Kwazzer in the solution and got to pre-treating, one section at a time. For wash media I reached for my old, trusty Aqua sponge, some of you long timers remember this tool I'm sure. I used the 2BM for this, just like using a mf wash mit. The car came out great and I used what was leftover in the Kwazzer to re-spray the entire car because I had one more "additional" step to do.
I've been looking at my IK 1.5L for quite some time, the one filled with Griot's Garage foaming Poly Gloss and I just had to use it and use it did. I emptied the entire bottle on the entire car, including the wheels, let dwell and rinsed down with the Worx hydroshot. I dried the entire car, crasy beads and all with a single Luxury microfiber towel, the Sucker and it's kinda cool down here, about 50 or so if I had to guess.
Once I was done I dried the engine bay and when I do my next wash I'll spray some Griot's Garage engine bay detailer in there, a really good product with a nice, satin finish that really lasts.
Even though the tires look great after the cleaning I decided to apply a single coat of 303 Tire Balm
So in the foamed pic of the car can you smell the strawberries through your screen The next pic is the car all dried off, awaiting 303 Tire Balm. In the 3rd and 4th pic you see the before and after of the tires and in the final pic and overall shot, thanks for looking!
