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

    Over here in Australia, the government has put a moratorium on landlords being able to evict tenants if they stop paying rent due to financial difficulties, this applies to both residential and commercial properties. They're also subsidising wages up to $1500 a fortnight so companies don't sack or lay people off, where the company can show they've lost a high percentage of their business. The guys I worked with were told they'd being doing half days, but now they've been told to keep coming in full-time at the moment, so the company can access the subsidies.

    And to include some detailing, I have to clean my windscreen again after driving home yesterday, an hour and a half on the freeway equals lots of dead bugs.

    Used the Griot's Brilliant Finish RW as a WW dilution ratio was eyeballed around 1/2oz to 30oz of water. The car wasn't hammered with dirt just some light dust no before pics (apologies) just afters.

    Easy to work with and no streaking whatsoever.

    Looks good, I'm guessing that's a Patrol, don't see too many of those on here.

    Are those tires for sand driving?

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

    I forgot how effective Sonus Motorkote is.

    I washed my wife's car today since we're having a nice break from the weather. I popped the hood and realized how badly I've let the engine bay go this winter. I grabbed some Adams CS3 and did a very quick wipe down. No pressurized water, just a quick waterless with the rag I was already holding. Then I sprayed Sonus Motorkote everywhere. It's a tough product for me to use because the best technique is to spray and walk away. It's tough to watch it pool and drip, but wait two hours and... wow.

    You can see in this photo that I did a terrible job cleaning (such as below the battery) but in my defense I spent maybe 4 minutes on the whole bay. Later in the spring the whole vehicle gets a deep clean.

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

    With plenty of spare time on my hands at the moment, any spec of dust is an excuse to wash my cars!

    I Can't have sooty exhaust tips, I wouldn't be able to sleep at night!



    Cleaned with a wheel brush, I wanted more so I broke out the polishing soap.





    I also gave them a spritz of Hydr02.



    All done and ready to make some sweet V8 noise.

    Those tips are clean! Figuratively and literally. Fits body contours well.
