    Lol. One day I’ll get the energy up to paint the garage white, but I HATE painting ceilings.

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

    I started this weeks therapy proceedings with a rinse-less wash of the Ranger.



    After the wash, I cleaned the glass with True Vue and the interior wiped over with CarPro InnerQD. Very much an express service for the Ranger today.

    Onto the XR6 for a more traditional wash. And yes, it did indeed need a wash, sporting 36 days worth of dust and a rouge bird dropping.











    Used Gyeon Bathe to mix things up a bit.......



    Used Hydrate as a drying aid which is best used on a damp towel. Being very much like a moisturizer in consistency, this product is so weird but certainly works well. The scent of Hydrate is odd, hard to explain but certainly not the fruity aroma that accompanies most detailing products. I'm not sure if this is a scent or the natural aroma of the product itself, almost like a weak degreaser smell. Again, very odd.

    Glass was seen to with CarPro Clarify, the interior wiped down with ONR, the rubber mats given a wipe down with CarPro Perl and the wheels wiped over with Bead Maker.

    Tires dressed and ready to be put back under its cover.





    Three more working days and I'm on leave, not that I'm counting.........

    Have a client’s Cadillac CT5-V. Black on black.

    Extra Tough APC for engine bay
    Adams Total Interior Cleaner
    Stoner Invisible Glass
    Adams Strip Wash
    P&S Brake Buster
    P&S Iron Buster
    Newruiheng Clay Bar w/ Meguiar’s Quick Detailer
    Rupes LHR 15 MKIII
    Rupes LHR75E
    Rupes Yellow Wool Pads
    The Last Cut +
    Rupes Yellow Foam Pad
    Sonax Perfect Finish
    Armor Shield IX on paint, lights, and windows
    Griot’s 3 in 1 Ceramic Wax for wheels
    Meguiar’s Endurance Gel for tires

    Interior is kept in great condition by the client. Just a wipe down, glass cleaning, and vacuum and it’s a wrap. Paint was swirled to hell and back, but she came out nice. About a 90+% defect removal.

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

    I couldn’t stand it any longer

    I spent $30 at the 25 cent car wash

    It’s not clean enough to risk towels and a drying aid but at least I’m not embarrassed to be seen in it



    I finished cleaning the dash and console with Express and got it wiped down with 2 coats of 303 because the vinyl seemed very “dry”

    Today I started on vacuuming the back seat floors and upholstery before taking a break for the car wash

    It’s slowly coming along

    Man, beautiful results

    I had to look up that clay brand

    How is that working out for you?

    Thanks.

    I got it off Amazon. First time using it, and it did the job I guess. It’s more pliable than Meguiar’s clay which I normally use so I liked how easy it was to work with. There really weren’t many imbedded contaminants so I can’t say for sure how it would compare side by side with Meguiar’s.
