So are truck shows worse than car shows, for people touching, and I suppose climbing on, things that they shouldn't be?

No, this is strickly due to improper techniques when washing or wiping down the paint.

Hopefull this guy learns proper ways real quick..if not hes either gonna run outta money or run outta paint lol

What is the rubber/vinyl floor mat dressing of choice these days?

I've been using KCx Guf, which was designed to be a non-slip dressing. However, I really like P&S Swift for floor mats. While it wasn't designed for this role, rather its an interior quick detailer, but I find it has just the right amount of "enhancement" without being slick like applying a traditional dressing would. Either product would sprayed on and leveled with a towel.

We are taking the new car on it’s first road trip in a few days

We are going to visit our granddaughters in Homer Alaska for our oldest granddaughter’s 16th birthday

Homer is on the ocean so lots of seagulls and lots of ravens as well

That prompted me to finally get a “bird bomb box” ready

Towels were an easy choice but I kept trying to cram a WW/QD, an interior cleaner, and a glass cleaner into the box I selected to fit in an allocated location

I finally just quit fighting it and came to the conclusion I should have come to all along

I got a small 8 oz spray bottle from Walmart that I have Griot's Speed Shine in. I keep that in the car (except for winter) with some cut up pieces of Costco microfibers for bird bombs.

Went to the self wash bay on Saturday and did a foam & rinse with Griot's foaming surface wash. Then did a rinseless on Sunday. It was still around 70 degrees in the evening when I did it. Car was still a little dirtier than usual when I did the rinseless.

Man, I am always in awe of your paint pics, I still LOVE that color

Mazda really has some stunning colors and you keep it up immaculately

Toyota gray was ok but they ruined it the last couple of years with that sickly green tinge they added to it

Thanks If you saw it up close, you'd see that it isn't immaculate tho. There's a big Dr. Colorchip session in my future to try to cover all the rock chips - the downside of doing so much highway driving. At some point later this year, it'll get machine polished too.

I need to get a kit for my little blue car, it has some rock rash too

I used to use Langka kits for my TT, but Dr Colorchip seems to be the hot ticket these days
