    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

    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?

    I have never seen a Rinsless brush. One on there says wheel and body…. Safe for all painted surfaces. Doesn’t say anything about rinseless….. Also looks like generic green bristle cream handle brush most i”independents” sell.

    Only one that I think might be OK would be Wheel woolies BHB..

    Years ago, when I had my 99 Pathfinder, so about 2005, I bought a Meguiar's Car Wash Brush. This wheel face brush has the same adjustable handle, but the bristles were white, at least when I bought it they were, and they were really soft. I still have it, and have tried it on the lower black trim of the FJ and the wheels, but it's too soft for that, and holds too many contaminants for the paint. So all in all, a complete waste.

    Maybe on the bullbar, hmmmm.......

    Their specialty is trashing interiors…

    So this new DIY Detail RW was burning a hole on my shelf and I got the chance to try it well over an hour ago.

    I decided to use the 2BM and the Adam's red sponge for the wash media. Since I pre-treat everytime, especially this time as I used it on my g/f's Cruze, it was dirty...and BLACK to boot! I had 3.5 gallons of water and added 2 oz of product and stirred it around. It has an apple cider scent, very pleasant!

    I did a panel at a time, it's sunny and 50 degrees outside and had ZERO issues washing and/or drying each panel. By the time I got to the tires and wheels the rinse bucket water was dirty and after cleaning the tires and wheels it was BLACKWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I also decided to try the DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss and was pleasantly surprised by its easy of use, how a little went a long way and the nice Gloss left behind. This product too smelled amazingWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

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

    Vacuumed interior and cleaned/protected floor mats. Tried the WeatherTech cleaner on the right side of the driver's side mat and Tuf Shine tire cleaner on the left side.

    Don't expect I'd buy the WeatherTech cleaner again. It didn't perform much different than the TufShine.

    Blew them dry with the EGO so they were pretty dry after 10 min.


    Then WeatherTech protectant

    I've been doing RW & WW since 2012, the year I joined AG.

    I'll be showing a new buddy RW tomorrow on his g/f's Sorrento, I'm sure he'll be blown away with the concept as he too lives in an apartment with outdoor parking only.
