What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

I need to get some of these other PFM's and investigate

Now just to be clear, are these the plush, edgeless ones from Griot's Garage that cost about $30 for a 6 count

Took the Falcon XR8 for a drive yesterday so that I would have something to detail today.

Sprayed Hybrid Solutions Leather Mist onto my seats, steering wheel and shiftknob. I then took out the d/s mat out to properly clean it. I used Purple Power @1:1 and it did a great jobIt's now outside drying out.

I decided to see how many ways I could fail on a “therapeutic” Sunday maintenance wash

I got all my buckets and stuff sorted last night

Washing outside here is a balancing act between the sun and the wind blowing red dirt everywhere and I start right after sunrise and sadly tend to rush through a wash

Today started out calm and cloudy




First fail was playing chemist and putting a capful of ONR in my gallon of pre-mixed foam cannon soap because I saw it suggested

The “foam” came out like milk and ran off the truck faster than I could spray it on



I dumped the soap and rinsed the cannon and put in my 4oz of Gold Class and made shaving cream

I foamed her up, let it dwell, agitated emblems and such, and rinsed her off

I would be ashamed to tell you how long it’s been on the truck but my 3D Poxy topped with OSW is still going fairly strong



I use a 1 bucket multi mitt contact wash and did half the roof and grabbed for another mitt and saw this

Obviously the handle has deteriorated and there were bits in the mitts

I got mad because all 8 of my mitts were in the bucket and I wasn’t going to try and pick out bits of plastic and hope I didn’t miss one

My contact wash went down the drain so I just gave it one more foaming and a third rinse and broke out the blower and drying towels

Fail 3 was trying to finish up my OSW so I could try my HS Wet Wax

It’s pretty humid today and 2 sprays per panel turned into 4-5 sprays so of course I made a streaky mess of things and doubled my drying time and used towel count



End result was good but I’m not feeling especially “therapeutized”

Hope your detailing Sunday is better

Cheers

I don’t need therapy

I’m perfectly fine…

Yeah it looks Chilly! The humidity didn't help with the Wet Wax, less is more, let see how it goes down next time

It was the Optimum Spray Wax I was overusing

I KNEW I was using too much, especially given the humidity

I was just trying to burn it up so I could try the HS Wet Wax

I hate having lots of almost empty bottles of stuff laying around so I try to use it all unless it’s just garbage then I don’t hesitate to toss it

I will break out the Wet Wax next time
