    After talking to corporate and getting a number I got VM. At this point I'm pissed because I've spent alot of time there, yes I could pay but out of principal I didn't because I pay for a monthly subscription.

    Around here I believe the subscriptions are per car. Maybe they locked your account?

    Speaking of losing their “AG Card”, I haven’t done a contact wash on my Jeep since October or November. Its in need of iron removal and rubber/tar removal and a good paint cleaner/AIO.

    The interior has been wiped down often as of late though.

    Hit the DIY for a quick rinse followed by rinseless and topped with some Griots 3-in-1. Pictures below are after DIY showing remaining film and after rinselss. No pic after 3-in-1, but not really different since the hood has a layer of Cquartz SiC.

    2nd step polish done on drivers side. We'll see how far I get tonight. Would be nice to get it done and apply the sealant tomorrow.

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

    This was one of those issues I had the last resort ready(my 3" eat sanding kit) I did have a ton of faith it was going to budge. Take in mind it was about 30 minutes before sundown the shots were bad and I never hit it with a finisher. Tomorrow I am starting first thing and will get plenty of much nicer shots!
    I started with BH Touchless since his car hadn't been washed since October.
    Used Adams Iron remover
    Then a medium clay mitt.
    Lastly hit it with TWHS Slick-N-Slide
    Then grabbed my three heaviest compounds. The Last Cut +/ Jescar Heavy Cut and 3D ACA 500
    Decided I would use Jescar first.
    Grabbed my Rupes LH19E with 6'Plate and 6.5" LC Natural White Wool Heavy Polishing pad
    It came off like butter. Never had enough light to use any finisher.Barely even wiped all the compound of as you can see.
    Like I mentioned it will et a full job tomorrow and will be sure to post some nice pics!

    Yesterday, I applied Invisible Glass Clean & Repel to the windshield and back window. It's supposed to rain later today so I can test it out. Also removed some dried bird poop from the gf's car. Just Speed Shine wasn't working so I used this method:
