What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

I'm working on tuning this Ford Escape that was once a dumpster fire into a white crystal WITH BLACKFIRE ONE STEP!

RW yesterday with a few new products. Tuf Shine tire brush - the bristles are shorter/stiffer then the Mother's brush I had. Also TRC Gauntlet. I like both. Today I noticed a bulge in one of my sidewalls. Didn't notice it when applying tire dressing but with the glossy tire, it's very noticeable. So I'll be buying tires tomorrow.

Thanks for not driving it like that.
Now if that bulge was on the inside you'd probably never know until ....
I'd suggest a better quality tire also.
Sorry but I'm a stickler when it comes to rubber.

Atleast you noticed it and put on the spare! I see people drive around with that and they probably have no idea what that is and how dangerous it is

Had some CQuartz lite that I wasn’t going to be able to use. A friend of a friend had a fairly new to her 2017 Black Toyota RAV4. Brilliant Finish rinseless, pinnacle fine clay, Mezerna SF4000 on a variety of fine pads, and an Eraser wipe down led to a applying the coating. We topped it off with reload since she doesn’t park in a garage. It was an overcast day so really easy to see high spots.

Also got an opportunity to try my new Rupes Nano on some small areas and curves. It worked really well. I had to use the blue pad and compound on an area of transfer from a lot ding but predominantly used yellow & yellow. Only thing that was less than ideal were the bottles. Got too much product every time and closing the bottle popped out even more stuff.

She was very happy and I got rid of some more of the CQuartz. Still have a bit more - d’oh.

The Elantra looks so nice, that blue is bad ass. How many layers of protection are on that bad boy? I admire the persistence.

Paul, the rams paint looks exactly how that color should. I really like that truck.

Bummer about the tire! I’m amazed to see the spare already on it. Folks in SE MI would keep driving on it.

Thanks for capturing what my lame-ass iPhone could not, Roger!

Well many for sure and I know I'm getting dismissing returns but then again I've got alot of products. I almost use "something" as a drying aid or when it's dusty a foam/dwell/rinse and always do a full wheel cleaning, well 95% of the time anyways. A year ago I did a full detail w/ light paint correction and applied TAC system ceramic paint coating to the ES and I'm sure it's down there somewhere

I have the time to stay ontop of my car as I have no life half the time (other half I have my daughter) so it keeps my mind and body occupied doing something.
