Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
As far as I can tell, I tried the absolute last touchless wash in the area that I hadn’t tried yet
I’m done trying
I had high hopes because this one seemed to have a powerful rinsing cycle, it went around the car FOUR TIMES with presoak, went around a couple more to rinse, and it felt like it was blowing the paint off the car, it was so strong…
Not so much
The rest of the car, minus the wheels, looks decent
Not great, but not embarrassing
It did get the rear window clean which none of the others have but that rear end is a nightmare
You can see the stripes where it hits and misses
I am done trying until my BH Auto Foam and IK foamer get here

I think I'm going to order BH Touchless for winter. I have an IK Pro 12. Hoping that works well enough for it.

For whatever reason the rear never comes out that great, especially in hatches. I'd suggest getting a foamer and pre-treating before you go into the wash
The thing with the winter time is to get it better than it was and a good underbody wash for that salt that seems to get everywhere

Your going to love Bilt-Hamber Touchless or Auto-foam. I use 5-7 ounces with 1 gallon of distilled water and empty the tank as a pre-wash, there's plenty in there to go around the entire car, twice and get the wheelwells and tires and wheels.
Looking forward to hearing your results guys

Really looking good
I need to bite the bullet and order some WETS for my fender flares and rockers, it has been a recommended product for years and there must be a good reason

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
The neighbors King Ranch was in my sights today. He bought from a friend with severe water spotting. I have some window acid that did help on the windows with constant agitation ….. his job. I had to buy a bottle of Meguirs 105 (I have a bottle and coarse pads elsewhere). I used an orange LC hybrid Force orange pad on a CBeast. I used BF One Step for a final step with wipe down of Si02.

If you want something longer lasting, Cerakote trim coating. Simple to use and coming up on 2 years and still looks great.
