    Yeah. The felt disc is what I'm soaking. SPTA doesn't sell replacements like IK does.

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

    Took the EN to the touch-free wash this morning. It got a pre-wash of 2 oz of Bilt-Hamber Auto-foam, 2 oz of Bilt-Hamber Touchless and 2 oz of Griot's Garage Brillant Shine snow foam, really like mixing stuff up. I also used Adam's tire and wheel cleaner on the tires & wheels and damn does that work, even w/o the foaming tip it turned the tires brown right away and then I scrubbed them down and got alot of brown foamWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I dried the car afterwards and used those DIY Detail mf towels with the magnets around the side mirrors, what a great idea.

    Once I got home I sprayed some DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss on the car, applied CarPro Darkside to the tires, took out the d/s WeatherTech, vac'd out the interior, used DIY Detail Interior clean and protect on EVERYTHING and used CarPro Clarify on my windows, inside and out. The d/s WeatherTech was cleaned with Feynlab WW, as well as my daughters side of her WeatherTech. I finished up using Griot's Garage leather scent for the interior and wiped down the engine bay too.

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

    Decided to do some work on the FJs wheels and tyres while something called the Superbowl was on the tv in the garage, weird game, lots of standing around, crouching, forward passes, and congratulating each other. Still, they seem to be enjoying themselves.

    Used 303 Aerospace Protectant on the tyre, sprayed it on and let it soak in for half an hour, then wiped off the excess. Wiped the wheels down with TWHS Ceramic Detailer, they weren't very dirty, and they're powder coated so quite resistant to scratching. Then put a layer of NV Jet for extra protection. I even did the spare.

    I'm not sure how safe this is, but I dress my spare as well. Although not the sidewall, just the bit that's visible hanging down underneath the tray.

    I don't do the tread though, or even the back. When you go to use yours, front or back, it will be amusing.

    I hope the road is straight if you need to put the spare on. Turning will be optional.

    Got off of work early and did a Feynlab WW, cleaned the windows w/ TWHS glass cleaner and topped off the paint with Griot's Garage Ceramic Speed Shine. Also used the Feynlab WW on the tires and wheels to "even things out"What did you do today, in regards to detailing?What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Finished up this 21’ Nissan Titan. Detail wash, claybar & McKee’s Graphene Sealant. Hyper Dressing on the trim & tires. Quite an impressive truck.

    The interior of the Qashqai was showing some dust and fingerprints, so I gave it a good wipe over with TWHS Inside Job. Works well and leaves a nice scent. The applicator stayed nice and clean until I did the steering wheel.
