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

    Waxed the truck with Meguiar's Ultimate Wax (liquid). It did not need any real prep or correction as I did that a few months ago with Meg's 210... I just wanted that freshly waxed look and slickness, so a quick waterless wash and then the wax application sufficed.

    Sorry I forgot to take a picture of my neighbors black suv I made shine today.

    Learning moment!

    I realized Rupes DA pads do not work on forced rotation (CBeast) machines as well as Lake County Hybrid pads made for forced machines. I like Rupes DA’s on my “Finisher” but I had that moment today what the problem was. I switch to a LC Hybrid and bingo.

    I kept it simple, put some 303 Aerospace Protectant on the tyres. I've been waiting since the weekend, the wind has been so strong and gusty I didn't want to end up with overspray on the black trim.

    -Bilt-Hamber Touchless or Auto-foam, your choice

    -distilled water once you empty the gallon so your ready next time

    It's about $250 total upfront but you can use it year round and multiple usesWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I posted this elsewhere but since we were already discussing this on this thread I thought I would follow up

    I just ordered an IK Foam Pro 2+, a jug of BH Auto Foam, and a quart of N914 to get to free shipping (thanks Crack)

    I am very hopeful that this will allow me to get to a winning combination in my war on winter grime and salt

    Cheers everyone

    I did a QD with NV Boost, I had some water spots on the hood from using the water squirters leaving work today. I then cleaned all the glass with Krystal Klear Bubblegum Blitz.

    His "sidekick" is the guy from Hawks Pro Detailing or something like that, I think?

    I am not a fan of either of them anymore

    I can't keep up with all the new (at least to me) brands out there like DIY, YUM, etc

    I guess anyone with enough money to get a contract with a blending company can have their own brand anymore

    And they are magically all "The Best" out there...

    I will say this and call myself out though...when I called him out for doing a RW on a black 911 on Apex Detailings channel with what I thought was a tire and wheel brush it ended up NOT being that, it was made for RW, so I was wrong but I'm not using it.

    I guess my issue was whoring himself out to soooo many channels that would have him, bashing "20th century wash technology" and now having that in your product lineWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    It seems his RW is the "star" and I'll see how it does tomorrow, the EN hasn't been washed in daysWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    This is the issue for me as well

    He has always been “it’s my way or the highway” and then a week later he’s changed TShirts and the company he is shilling for and the rhetoric changes completely

    Is he knowledgeable about detailing?

    Hell yes

    Do I respect and listen to him anymore?

    Hell no

    He has zero credibility in my eyes

    Sorry if any fan boys get butt hurt
