    Are you wetting the mitts?

    28 degrees is no problem for a rinseless wash in my driveway. The Buick was covered with winter road slop but the Worx Hydroshot removed almost all of it. The Wolfgang Uber rinseless wash was clean and nearly effortless. The rinse water was a little cloudy but not bad. Now into the garage for a coat of Collinite 845.

    A coat of Collinite makes a world of difference.

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

    So when your friend has his car being built and it sits outside and in a garage for months while the work is being done, it's only proper to help get the dust and garage smell out of it and the caked on fallout and road grime off it. It really helped that it was ceramic coated as not much of the grime that he was so saddened about stuck at all. Came right off with just a good rinseless wash.

    Took a couple of hours yesterday to quickly wipe it down, decontaminate it and restore the coating and then Tornador Vacuum the interior and wipe it all down as well. Lastly, ran a 2hr ozone treatment through it to neutralize any muck and bring it back to clean and fully sanitized.

    One pic from way back in June of 2018 when I original corrected and coated it and the others from yesterday. It was just a quick job yesterday at no-charge to get him through winter. Wheels and misc details ignored as they are coming off and winter ones are going on. Most important part was cleaning up the interior so the kids can ride in it. He's now all set!


    From June 2018 when I corrected it and applied GYEON CanCoat and more

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

    First Sunday off in a month, spent a blissful four hours tinkering with the Mustang.

    Started on the wheels, these things will be the death of me!



    Gave me a chance to try out Hydr02 on them, a very user friendly product.



    Reload for the paint, door jams and engine bay.





    Cleaned and coated the leather trim.



    Cleansed car, cleansed soul.

    Getting the garage ready for Winter washes. First step, install water access. Next is heat and air filter. Freezing temps wont hold me down!

    Sadly the hose came inside for the winter... I'm left with the local pressure washer now and the occasional ONR bucket rinse for the season.
