What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

Busted my butt polishing out this ol' Camry today for a friend of a friend and repeat client. It sits under a tree and has 200k miles so it was pretty thrashed. I used my G9 and G8 today instead of the Makita to save my back a bit. Love this duo. At first I thought the G8 stalled too much but after finding the right pads and finesse for it I'm really impressed in it's versatility. Really digging this Shine Supply AIO too.

Afterwards, with a couple beers and relaxing time in the garage I gave the GLI a waterless wash with Ech2O. I had just rinseless washed with ONR on Wednesday so it was pretty easy. Gotta say these CarPro coatings are absolutely divine. Hats off to everyone that suggested CQuartz UK topped with CQuartz SiC (like @The Guz and @TTQ B4U ). This thing is so ridiculously glossy and slick and easy to keep clean with only waterless/rinseless products so far. Maybe one day I'll let it get dirty enough to require this liter of Reset I have

Was going to wash the SB Honda & the Explorer ST today, but when I walked outside I noticed it's "pollen week" & both vehicles are yellow with the stuff. Plus we're due the rain absolutely pissing down all day on Monday... So ask me again a few days

As soon as the weather breaks I'll do a full write up, story of how it came to be and pics

I've been laughing at the exhaust system everyday, well when I've got it in N mode anyways

Yeah I've got pics of the ES where the glow off of the car looked like it was plugged into an outlet or something. Not sure how this color is going to react but I've got other things to worry about...self restraint

️I'm sure WRX's and Focus ST's, etc are going to be rollin' up on me, especially since these are pretty rare right now

I saw a video where a stock N with the DCT run a 13.3 1/4 mile at around 107 mph. That is moving much faster than I thought.

Do you remember who reviewed that? I'm not doubting you but that's crazy because a stock Veloster N runs a 14.2, probably the 6 spd and I can't see a slightly heavier car running THAT fast, even with a bigger turbo than the VN

Pretty impressive times.

Ok, washed wish Turtle Wax Pure Slick&Slide in my foam cannon. Hyper wash in the bucket. Wheels cleaned with Diablo by CG. TURTLE WAX HYBRID FLEX Wax applied with GG6. Right side of bed has Flex Wax. Driver side from fender to bed has Flex Wax. Right side doors do not, the doors are bare. So, can anyone see a clear difference?
