    Knocked out that Tire & Wheel cleaning the EN needed, 3 brushes and TWHS Hyper Foam took care of it. I also pre-treated the car with some old, left over WW "just because".

    Once I got home I noticed a package on our porch...I'm being swayed by "the Darkside", pics coming soon and there's also a fresh bottle of Bilt-Hamber AutoWash in there tooWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I find the gels harder to apply so it would have to be much longer lasting than a non-gel (such as DG 253) for me to consider it. But looks good.

    It's a thinner gel, hate the pump that comes with it but thankfully I save all flip up capsWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?We'll see how it goes for durability, not sure if 30 degree temps effect durability during application thoughWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

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

    Jacked up the 2014 Accord and pulled the wheels off and tried some of my new Meguiar's D143 Wheel and Tire Cleaner (2:1 mix). Then did a very light polish on the faces. I really liked the D143. I've tried 1 or 2 other Tire and/or Wheel cleaners but this stuff worked great for my application. I'll be sticking with it. I'm going to try a 3:1 or 4:1 for my next mix. My wheels are in pretty good shape and don't require anything too aggressive. Very Happy!

    Wetsanded and polished out the wife's headlight lenses. Applied GTechniq CSL when done.

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

    I gave the Qashqai a wash, 2B with Reset, I really love that stuff, I thought about just doing an ONR wash inside the garage, it was quite hot outside, but there was some random cloud cover. I did the wheels with Bowden's Wheely Clean, not much reaction on the rears, but the fronts, which looked ok, showed there was a lot of brake dust I couldn't see. Moved inside to dry it, used TWHS Ceramic Wet Wax as a drying aid. Still need to put something on the tyres, and I may go over it with NV Jet or Lustre later.

    Wash the truck today and tried out 303 Protectant on the exterior plastics and tonneau cover. So far, it looks great without a lot of gloss. Let's see how long this lasts. Paint is PA cosmic, love the glow it gives.
