Yes I am
But it won’t be completed until next spring
The foundation and concrete work is done and I was hoping they would start framing last week but it’s looking like next week
Regardless, we weren’t expecting to be in it before next May
We are staying at our friends B&B where we frequently stay
They have a covered carport but that’s it
No garage and as of 2 weeks ago, the outside water is off for the winter

This too
But at least I know I can get it clean and then correct and protect even if I can’t do a full blown wash inside
Plus I know I’ll be going into October of next year clean, corrected, and with a Klasse style 73 layer, bulletproof LSP program on board
I’m really studying up on hybrid washes thanks to Crack and Guz and others who have given me some great ideas

I don’t think your car will even get dirty with that program. I think fine dust and salt fall right off. :)
What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
Rinseless with Pure and pretreat with N-914. Added a coat of Cosmic on top of Kamikaze OC. Hope this will get me through winter.
Cosmic is so nice to use. Easy on A we sat off…. Melts into paint and leaves a nice gloss and slickness if your into that.

Like there new battery powered, pump or traditional spray head?

A traditional sprayer, like Griot's compact foaming sprayer.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...96f873ce50.jpg
Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
Hadn't washed the EN for 2 days and I was getting shakes, so I did that right after work, it's sunny and about 70 degrees[emoji41]
I got home and used Dream Maker on the car to add some POP and to touch up the little bit of water, jams too[emoji106] I wiped the spokes on the rims and dressed the tires with TWHS graphene acrylic tire dressing and I hadn't used it a while and now I remember why this and the Adam's version are in my top 3 tire products[emoji779]️https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...ddb33c7689.jpg

So my g/f is making a practice turkey dinner for dinner today, so I wanted to return the favor and wash her car[emoji56]
I started out using CG's Diablo for the rims and Griot's Garage foaming tire cleaner for the tires, used 3 of my brushes to get them nice and clean.
Next was the pre-wash using my Griot's Garage foam gun and poured in 4 oz of TWHS Hyper Foam and an ounce of Bilt-Hamber Auto-foam. I foamed it down, let it dwell and rinsed it off, 2BM was next.
For the 2BM I used Bilt-Hamber AutoWash, 1 ounce is all that's needed and it produces lots of suds and straight up CLEANS[emoji779]️Once I rinsed that down I used my Meg's HCW @4:1 on each panel to give it a little more protection and dried it off.
I'll go out after dinner and apply some tire dressing, it will be a game time decision[emoji28]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...4b09b8f801.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...101809ff7b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...31f5ebd0fe.jpg
