What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

Man I don’t even know what to say Eldo, we were all happy to have you back and safe and to have heard from you. Now knowing the journey and your story with this, that’s a truly amazing recovery you’ve had and absolutely blessed by God and the people He put in your life during that time!

Thank you for sharing that, it’s not always easy for people to open up and share such personal/private situations, especially online. I guess in a way, that’s what makes AG like an extended extended family.

Decon wash with Mckee’s coating prep and a presoak with Bilt Hamber auto foam. Followed with IronX and TarX.

Cleaned up the CQUK3 real good water behavior like new. Will wipe down with a strong dilution of n-914

Fixed some chips with Dr Color Chip.

Cleaned interior with Conolly’s and coated plastics and vinyl with PBL L&V coating. Really nice stuff.

Will add a couple coats of Cancoat and Gyeon Leathershield to seats if i have time

Later last evening I washed the ES. Started with TW Ice pre-wash foaming, rinsed and then 2BM w/ Built-Hamber carwash. Actually cleaned the tires and wheels w/ leftover TW Ice carwash soap. Got to work this morning and applied 2x's 303 Tire Balm and wiped down the rims w/ FD 2.0.

The 2nd pic is a pic my buddy passed along to me, always someone else in my dream car on my dream road, atleast the latter I've experienced before

Klasse, I like your taste in Vettes! I love the styling of the first 3 gens, easily some of my favorite of their times. Being a child of the late 80’s I’ve got a soft spot for the C4 although it’s not anywhere near as beautiful as it’s predecessors!

Thank you, I'm pretty militant about Corvette's though. My favorites are the original Sting Rays, 1963-67...coupes only! Next up is the 1956-57's and finally the 1961-62's. After that I'm very selective. The 1968-72's are ok, once again...coupes only. Then the "dark ages" followed and didn't come back around until 1990 with the ZR1's and 1996 GS coupe. Next up are the C5 ZO6's, love that roof line. For the C6's it's the perf models again (GS/ZO6/ZR1) and same for the C7. HELL NO on the C8

No no no... Allow me to clarify the story.
My boy cat likes to pass out in the weeds...

It must’ve been fate on my side, because while he was passed out in the weeds that night he must’ve sensed I was in danger and used his quick cat reflexes to slip me 1 of his 9 lives and therefore ensuring I return home soon with more of that good food that allows him to lead a fat and spoiled life.

lol.

Oh and BTW, he also LOVES to Crap in the weeds... Same spot everyday! He’s a fool!

lol.

Hahaha I knew you’d slip a little hate in on the C8!! I really want to like it but yeah, I just can’t, not now and maybe not ever, still yet to see one in the flesh.

To me it’s like the latest gen Civic Type R, thing is butt ugly and just looks an embarrassment on wheels. How they sell them to people with eye sight required for having a drivers license, meaning good enough to see the car they’re driving I’ll never know.

I think our disgust for certain cars is because we also love the models themselves and seeing their progression and style changes from past to present (Corvette C1,2,3-C8) and (Civic EF,EG,EK-FN). There I go again sneaking in Civic talk with Corvette talk.
