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

    Got out the Worx hydroshot kit, big battery pack, 5 Eagle edgeless microfiber towels and the IK Foamer w/Brake Buster in it. Once I get home from getting my oil changed I'll be doing a RW (product TBD) and full tire/wheel cleaning. Probably no dressing because I think the winter set-up is going back on next weekend What did you do today, in regards to detailing?What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Gave this Merc a needed bath. I used Meguiars soap in a blue bottle with foam cannon MTM. Vacuumed interior. Dressed dry AMG leather with Lexol leather conditioner. The exterior was given a cleaning with Mkees jeweling polish. I finished with Meguiars polishing wax. GG6 is the D.A. I used

    Because I stay ontop of the wheels inside out there isn't a whole lot to do. That said, I'll do a cleaning of them before they go down in the basement. Not sure if I'm coating them because I might have them powder coated dark bronze...stay "tuned"What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Kind of moderate in PA today for a change. Sun and all blue sky. Good to get some fresh air after another 50 hr. week. Normal wash/detail on the ZR2. Another coat of wolfstiens tonneau protectant on my cover before the really crappy weather hits. And a quick coat of Pinnacle glass cleaner & repellant on the windshield.

    On a side note the winter blend gas is now at all pumps. Which equals dropping gas mileage now.

    It looks original to me. It’s really nice. Fully loaded, factory TV’s in the headrests & everything.

    I just finished polishing this crud off the wheels with some steel wool.

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

    Took F U L L advantage of Indian Summer here in Chicagoland today! Started out by doing an overdue FULL wheel cleaning with Brake Buster, tires too. Lots of brown came out of the foam from the barrels! All brushes got a workout, gotta have the right tools for the jobWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Next up was the wash and I decided on a RW using Griot's Garage Brillant Shine rinseless wash and 5 purple Eagle edgeless microfiber towels. The ES was 4 days dirty, lots of frost/thaw residue but using my 1000 ML Kwazzer for pre-treat make quick work of it and it cleaned up SO EASY! This product is criminally underrated, pick some up along with some of the new Griot's productsWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I wasn't going to put anything on the tires because they're coming off the car soon but I just grabbed some Tri-Nova tire dressing for the 1st time and was pretty happy with the results, just a little layer as they looked "natrual" already.

    Went out for some BBQ with my g/f and my daughter...other thread for thatWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Got really ambitious & cleaned the 1/4-3/8in wide return on the rear part of the front fenders on the Camaro. Took maybe a minute total... Then went to an open house & looked around a house WAY out of my price range, need to win the lottery tonight.
