    Quick ONR wash finished with Bead Maker. Today was my first time trying out my Big Red Sponge and I have mixed feelings about it. Definitely much faster than using micro fibers but it will take some getting used to.

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

    After around a month of ownership I was finally able to get the car corrected and protected.

    Full wash with Carpro Reset, decon with Iron X and Tarminator. Clayed with Nanoskin Sponge and ONR as clay lube. Normally use Nanoskin Glide but noticed I was out.

    Used my trusty (crappy) Harbor Freight DA. Used an LC orange foam pad and Menzerna 400. An LC white pad with Menzerna 3500 on some of the black gloss areas. Wiped down with Gyeon Prep. And protected with IGL Premier.

    Definitely not perfect, I wasn't going for perfection as I find it a waste of time for a daily driver that sees Michigan winters. I would say roughly 80%-85% correction.

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

    Got up early so I could spend some quality time on the Fusion.
    Did a two bucket wash with Griots Brilliant Shine car wash. Cleaned the wheels with Meguiars Ultimate Wheel Cleaner and scrubbed the tires clean with Griots Foaming Tire.
    Used TWSS as a drying aid.
    Now it will stay in the garage until Cars and Coffee tomorrow morning.

    The first application of Tuf Shine lastly nearly 8 months but it was time for a new treatment. The tires came clean with just 2 scrubbings. I finished it with two coats of Tuf Shine coating.

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

    Well yesterday, instead of the FNW, I did a "quick detailer on steroids" wipedown of my car since it was clean from the night before. This product combines 3 products, kinda like "FrankenDetailer" but using products from that guy who shares his name with a popular paper towel brand and resides in the land of "America's Team"What did you do today, in regards to detailing? Combining his RW, Sio2 spray sealant and distilled water makes for a VERY impressive product!

    So today I decided to treat my seats once again with Gyeon leather but check this out, I've got so much of it applied, along with Leather Masters own product, that when I went to apply it to the seat after spraying it into my foam applicator that it beaded up immediately, LOL. So I treated all the seats, steering wheel and shiftknob and than applied Wurth fresh scent inside and now I'm about to spray the new 303 High GlossTire Shine into the wheelwells. I've already tried this product before it came out and I really do like it. This product is ofcoarse great on tires but works great in wheelwells because, per the directions, you spray it on and leave it...no wiping. This product is going to be a HUGE HIT for those with knobby tires found on most "Bro-dozzers"What did you do today, in regards to detailing?What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Time to walk up stairs, get the 303 High GlossTire Shine, apply it in the wells and relaxWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?
