Today was spring like. My Jeep has not even been sprayed off or anything since February 7th. Today I changed that.
3D Pink soap wash through a cannon
PFM to dry
DP Need for Bead as the fk1000P is done for in spots.
Vacuum
Duragloss interior detailer.
I’ll clean the leather later with Blackfire Leather Complete.
So muddy that one of my locks was filled with mud. The door handles left my hands dirty just getting in and out every day. Sometimes I do spray some ONR Q/D ratio on the drivers handle to combat this.
This was all from daily driving and the condition of the dirt roads around here btw.
All done, not dressing the tires. They’ll get dirty anyway.

I sprayed the mud on the driveway for about 10 minutes and gave up lol. I’ll sweep it up if it dries tomorrow.
So you see how dirty it gets, now that it’s clean I’ll get a smart ass comment from someone about my pavement Jeep. While I enjoy driving back roads (one section had road hazard signs placed in the roadway warning of water being over the road, that was fun!), I’m ready for warm weather and getting the Camaro out. Also, look forward to taking the top off the Jeep.

You know the truth as do we, that's all that matters

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
Gave my wife’s van a wash and started some polishing. I’m not sure where she parked but the whole car had water spots though more on the right side than the left. Still have plenty of polishing to do and with rain upcoming, I expect it may take a week or more to get her van done.
Here are the products I used.
McKee’s N-914 Rinseless Wash
Flex CBeast
Flex PXE80
Rupes Blue Coarse Wool pad
Rupes Yellow Medium Wool pad
Diamondtite Glass Polish
Blackfire One Step (Since I’m going to need multiple days to finish and want some basic protection. Will likely put on the Meguiars Coating I picked up on clearance in the fall.)
I polished the entire windshield starting with the upper left.
And here’s the rear side glass where I taped a line.

Davy your truck looks brand new, and I mean that in the true sense of it. I’m very familiar with those trucks, as I had one and still do like them. I never see that body style that clean. Most have started to rot through the rear wheel wells.
I’d be very proud taking that out for a drive. How many unsolicited offers do you get per week of people trying to buy it?

Thanks JD. I have had people offer me $15,000-$20,000 for the truck but I still want to hold on to it. A new truck that I would like costs $60,000+. I bought it in August 2008 when gas was over $4.00 a gallon and they were giving away trucks and SUVs. I got a great deal. Today it only has 90,000 miles.
It has a lot of corrosion on the undercarriage but I do spray it down with FluidFilm. There are some small spots where the paint is pitting but so far no heavy rust.
I believe in treating everybody with respect, and clean cars. That’s what I believe in.

I understand the undercarriage battle well. Makes me sad to be honest.
Keep on enjoying that beauty!

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
"Spring cleaning" of flushing out the undercarage and all the hiding spots and fluid film touch ups if needed are keys to successfully extending the life of an undercarage. Similar as some do to the paint
