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

    I received my order from AG today, thank you team members! I bought a fresh bottle of 303 Touchless sealant, P&S Brake Dust Buster and finally the Rag Company Eagle Edgeless towels.

    Now I've been using Luxury Microfiber towels since they opened up during Christmas and haven't looked back, so I'm going to see how these towels compare very soon. Now I will say they're very soft and I have them in the washing machine right now. I compared a Rag Company towel to a Luxury Microfiber towel and i noticed the LM towel to be a little thicker straight away. I know the Rag Company towels are 500 GSM and I'm pretty sure The Jack towels from LM are as well, so an initial nod goes to LM there, although the Eagles are brand new and not washed...yet, but im all over it.

    My thoughts, for what they're worth, will be revealed in a comparison but I'll not refer to their proper name when I review them, let's just call them Brand LM vs. Rag Company EaglesWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

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

    So...with all "chatter" about WW recently I decided to do one tonight, N914. It's been 2 days since the last wash and I feel much better about my car now! I even sprayed down the tires, wheels and wells and wiped them all down too, the product does EVERYTHING, even interior wipedownsWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Needless to say, N914 mixed at the WW does EXACTLY the same thing as a designated, pre-made QD from any mfg...but LESS EXPENSIVELY, periodWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Did a waterless wash with Wolfgang Uber, which may end up replacing the Blackfire since it’s just as good and cheaper. Also used some Meguiars Endurance tire gel. I’m not a huge tire shine fan but it’s been a while so I wen for it. Lol

    Here is where I'll disagree with this. N914 does not do EXACTLY what pre made quick detailers do from any manufacturer.

    Ok sure, they both clean the layer of film/dirt on the surface. But here is where they differ, N914 has 0 shine enhancers or polymers.

    Premade QD's will have some sort of polymer or shine enhancing "goodness" in them to qualify them as QD's.

    Not trying to argue, just me nitpicking.

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

    Car was cleaned up Wednesday but it had a light layer of pollen so I got after it. WW with N-914. Finished off with ECH2o. Never used ECH2o until today. Mixed it up at 1•20. At first I wasn't a fan. The buff off was grabby and I thought to myself "that's odd." Decided to try with a different towel and there it was. Buffed up real easy and felt very slick.

    I'll end up trying it out as a WW and RW eventually just for fun, but my initial reason for purchasing was for a drying aid/QD.

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

    After the N914 WW. My buddy Hectour told me it's been about 2 weeks since the last wash, the Eagle edgless mf towels pulled more grit out of the paint than that 1st pic might suggest! Now its onto the tires and wheels, N914 there too!
