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

    Well the day started out kinda nice, sunny and bright. So just took the winter tires off (hopefull old man winter called it a season) so took my dad's car's and the car I'm driving winters and gave them a good cleaning before storage. 8 wheels/tires.... well at about the 2nd tire the weather got noticably colder, and stayed that way. I hope those winter tires realize how spoiled they live.

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

    50 degrees and sunny, so it's time..."good" carwash on the ENWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Started with a TWHS Slick and Slide pre-wash, 1 gallon worth (5 oz/1 gallon distilled) let dwell and rinsed off. I have to say it did a really good job!

    Next up were the tires/wheels and for this I once again reached for a TWHS product, Hyper Foam. This product dissolves the brown on the tires immediately but this time it was really put to the test as I was able to do a barrel cleaning this time, finally. All 4 brushes were called into extra duty and I'm happy to report my rims are clean...inside and out!!

    Next I wanted to add some protection so I finished up my bottle of 303 Touchless Sealant. I started with the wheel faces, let sit and then rinsed off. Next was the entire car and I had just enough and this product really works well, lots of tight beads and gloss!

    I dried the car with the Sucker and Gauntlet. The mini Master Blaster was used for the tires, wheels, mirrors and various other areas. I finished up by applying some TWHS graphene spray tire coating on that make-up applicator for a nice sheen.

    Lastly I vac'd out the interior and wiped down the back side of p/s seat (it's where Kendall sitsWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?)

    All clean and fresh we drove out to my g/f's for great fajitas. We'll be taking the "long way home" tonight too, even though I can't go "hunting" as I've got about 250 more miles to go before hitting the 600 mile "break in" period. I'll say this though, the EN has ALOT of shove on the freeway....God help meWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    The Buick got foamed again even though it was clean. Then the interior got the full treatment with Megs D101, 303 Protectant and then the seats got cleaned with Ultima Interior Shampoo Gel and Gyeon Leathershield.
    By the time I was finished, there wasn’t a spec of dust anywhere.

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

    I noticed as the afternoon sun came in, just how much dust had settled on the Qashqai, you can see how much in the first pic, and I needed my detailing fix. So I got out the duster, dusted using a very light touch, then gave it a QD with NV Boost. Job done.
