Now I'm not trying to start something but rather making an observation and it's this, why would you chose the "middle of the road" product when for a few bucks more could have their very best and even then, it's so inexpensiveWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I will be visiting the TW booth at the Chicagoland Auto Show this February and giving them my .02 cents worth about the great products they've dropped on us in the past year, also maybe get them to re-introduce their tire coating, minus the black dye, stay "tuned"What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Good luck with that tire coating suggestion.
    I emailed them months ago telling them the Endura Shine was missed and wondered if there was plans for anything similar be introduced.

    About the only company I have contacted that didn't get back to me. After that, TW can get*%$#. I wont buy any of their substitute garbage.

    No problem, I'm surprised they didn't get back with you on this. I say this because of the ground swell of positive responses they've surely recieved in recent months, wanna stay ontop of things. That said, you've gotta think about the human factor and besides, this is all new to them, not the business of making car care products but car care products us enthusiasts have embraced. Maybe drop them another email, I mean everyone can't be Griot's Garage What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

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

    So I did a number of things this morning. First I went back down to the garage and applied a 3rd coat of OPT tire coating to the tires. Next I used up the leather conditioner I'm beta testing on the seats, steering wheel and shiftknob. I then used some 303 protectant wipes on all interior vinyl bits. Then onto the exterior, yeah, like it needed another coat of something but I did just that. Turtle Wax is in the air and I used the TW Ice spray wax, hadn't used it as of yet, so I did. This product looks like TWSS coming out of the bottle and spreads like it too, a real pleasure to use!

    Now the car sits until tomorrow morning to head to work, where it's supposed to be rainy...ofcoarseWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing? I really wanted to get some additional layers on the car and curing as its supposed to be 50 today, so wanted to take advantage of that for sureWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

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

    Got some time for my car today. Wolfgang waterless wash and then I realized I had some Sonax carnauba based spray wax left so I decided to layer on top of the UFF and wow. I am always topping sealants with carnauba products as long as I have black. There is a noticeable difference in reflective ness, clarity and shine.

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

    My brother stopped by to visit and his Honda Accord was in major need for a quick detail..



    So I hooked him up.What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
    1st thing I did [after the wheels & tires] was hit it with DUB Wheel Cleaner and watched it bleed like a stuck pig!





    Bucket Wash with Megs Hyper Wash, then gave the horizontal panels a quik clay with a Med. Grade Nanoskin Claymitt.. Finished it off with Beadmaker + cleaned up the beginning stage of yellow hazing that was occurring on the headlights by hand using Megs Plastx and a microfiber applicator.

    They cleaned up like new and so did the plastic chrome trim using the Plastx.What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Awesome job Eldo!! Really nice before and after too.

    I’m really hoping you gave him the family discount and said, “Hermano, I’ll take care of your car, I only ask you buy me a few bottles of my favorite wheel and paint decon product, DUB!”

    Can’t have too many left in your stock surely?
