    Washed with Mother's California Gold

    Wheels cleaned with Bowden's Wheely Clean

    Dried with Bowden's After Glow

    Wiped down with NV Clarity

    I then applied the Collinite 845. Attachment 73447Attachment 73448Attachment 73449

    That’s what I was going to get. But at the last minute I found out about this 1 + they were having a crazy sale 30% off & free shipping. I couldn’t pass it up.

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

    Sooo off of [mention]Klasse Act [/mention] recommendations I tried Ech20 as a rinseless. Not a fan as a straight waterless because of extra buffing but great for a C&C or a meet to get a quick shine.

    Bought a gallon and got a ton left so tried to see if i should put in my rinseless rotation.

    I used 2oz to 1.8 gallons mixed in a 2 gallon bucket.

    I couldn’t tell if it streaked as i used indoors in the evening and used Kamikaze OC v1 as a drying aid (a streaky product itself).

    As for use I liked a lot. Nice towel glide and slickness comparable to Uber. I liked Uber’s slickness and was going to get their Sio2 formula but will use this up in it’s stead as long as i don’t see streaks tomorrow.

    Guessing I lt won’t as Ech20 if diluted weak doesn’t and this is diluted stronger. Thanks for the recommendation Klasse...

    Wash day for the XR8 today, trying out a new wheel brush.





    The engine bay always gets a wipe over after each wash. Nothing special, just some Megs Last Touch to keep it clean.

    I needed an upgrade for my HF DA which I had been using as my 3” polisher. It got to the point where the vibration and constantly having to concentrate on having a tight grip at all times became the #1 thing I would think about everytime I used it. Plus it would stall at the worst times with the 3” setup and that’s the worst thing that any polisher can afford to do.

    1st test with this new polisher went great. It’s so much smoother, 12mm throw, and it has a slow start feature just like the 1st gen Rupes Bigfoot polishers. I’ve always liked that slow start feature when you turn a polisher on.

    Just gave my truck a quick wash, dry, shine tires, wipe down wheels and dress the fender wells. It should look presentable for a few days now.
