Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
Had a somewhat senior moment...
I have a Griots 3in surface prep pad. It's used on a polisher with QD as lube to clean paint without the ballache of claying it by hand. It says to break it in on glass at first before using it on paint. Decided to do so on the Camaro windshield.
Get the G8 out & set up all ready to go... then I move the box the G8 came in it feels too heavy for an empty box...
Pulled out the molded plastic piece in the bottom of the box & found an extension cord... Odd, the G8/G9 kit I bought came with a 25ft extension cord in a separate box. It fits both the G8 & the G9.
Pulled the G9 box off the shelf, removed polisher & plastic doodad & found ANOTHER extension cord... They're both 12footers.
I've used both polishers a few times since they arrived several days ago, guess I hadn't moved an *empty* box until this afternoon.
& the windshield of the Camaro is probably the cleanest/smoothest it's ever been.
Surface prep pad is supposed to good for 21 vehicles. Never going to use clay by hand ever again.
Those who possess real knowledge are rare. Those who can set that knowledge into motion in the physical world are rarer still. The few who possess real knowledge and can set it into motion of their own hands are the rarest of all.

I have not, but the more I hear about him, the more I want to watch. Sounds like a bad car wreck, you know you should stop watching, but you can't.

The 25 ft cord is also heavier gauge that can be used with the G15/21 if you ever pick those up.

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
This guy is really "a piece of work". Because I'm sub'd to Mckee's this infiltrated my email. Growing up a couple houses south of the world famous 8 mile road the working girls out there have NOTHING on this guy

At this point it looked great but I was already planning a contact wash, but which one

I liked GSF a lot when I used it last. I have an unwashed white car (over a month now) that was in snow as recently as last week. I'm thinking I'll try the Green Star added to GSF tomorrow and see how it goes. Probably won't have a dirtier opportunity for awhile.
Overall I like a lot of the Koch Chemie offerings.
