What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

Washed microfibers and then gave my car a bucket wash.
This sight never gets old.

Finally had a moment to clean the wife's car after our mountain trip. My wife is home for 2 weeks recovering from surgery so I figured it would stay clean for awhile, but I remembered it has to go to the dealer tomorrow and it is going to rain!🤦🏾#♂️

Indeed it is.. it’s the 1st time I’ve used Beadmaker on my car since polishing and sealing the paint on Jan 1st. Protection was still going strong but it was perfect time for a boost.

I washed my Mum's Qashqai yesterday, and this morning gave it coating of Mother's CMX, with the tyres getting some 303 as I prefer the natural rubber look, and the black trim was sprayed with Auto Glym Bumper & Trim Detailer.

Today was one of those days where I just should have stayed in bed. I twas my day off, got up early to give my 2010 Audi A4 a compound/polish/wax before it got too warm out and just as I finished compounding half the car, my old Lake Country 5" backing plate decided to separate the top from the urethane section. I attempted a temp fix using thin CA glue and it held for about 10 minutes and came apart again. So i was then left with the choice of driving 15 miles to Chemical Guys for a new backing pad, or order one online with free next day shipping since it was already getting too late/hot to be polishing outdoors. Determined to finish it in the afternoon, i got in my car and with completely unprotected paint, set off to Santa Ana. Within 5 minutes some prick decided to wash his windshield in front of me, coating my car with water spots bumper to bumper. At this point... defeated... i turned around and picked up some lunch on the way home only, and once there discovered that McDonalds gave me fries that had been sitting in the warmer for who knows how long. *sigh*

The only highlight of the day was testing out my new DIY quick detailer, made from Wolfgangs Uber Rinseless Wash + distilled and it worked incredibly well. I can say without hesitation that i will not be buying pre-made quick detailer spray again. Works great with a clay bar too.
