    Yeah, it's popular enough that one of our free to air channels shows a couple of games a week during the season, and a couple of other shows to help edumacate us, like America's Game for example. The channel that shows it is called 7Mate, only in Australia would they call a TV channel that. It shows a lot of "guy" stuff, Full Custom Garage, Counting Cars, Outback Truckers, Ice Road Truckers, and lots of fishing shows.

    A couple of our games are being played over there this year, they're kicking off the NRL (National Rugby League) season with a double header in Las Vegas on March 3rd. The Sea Eagles v Rabbitohs and the Roosters v Broncos. I just hope they put on a good show.

    Gave zee 'ole Fords a wash.
    Spray off at the local DIY and rinseless to get the film off.

    The Explorer hadn't been washed in a long time (couple months) and the Edge just got a spray off last weekend, but it's been warm and wet all week, so it was yucky.

    A before photo of the Edge in the wash bay and after of both.

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

    I get less time to beat the games starting being out west but it bumped +10 degrees from 9am to 10am so I got after it. Supposed to be nearly 60 all week!

    I used a lot of PolishAngel today as I have stuff nearing the two year mark so want to be sure I keep it in rotation. Used Mint and Supersport PTFE on wheels. My main soap was a mix of Glasscoat and some Incredible Suds (DIY).

    I used Viking Spritz to help dry and finished with High Gloss. I'm thinking it'll be real shiny tomorrow What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I used the Purest A3 prewash that I had from a BF sale and the Purest Waterless Wash for door jambs. The A3 was fine as a prewash (was mostly dust and light dirt to be fair) but the Waterless Wash was unexpectedly odd for a WW. It was very chemical smelling and very thick. Performance was fine for what it was used for but it's unlike any other WW I've used. I'm not sure I'd use it for horizontal or vertical touch-ups.

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

    After two weeks of perpetual rain and driving through every puddle in NC I finally got a chance to get in a good wash. Had to break out some BH Auto Foam because the rocker panels were covered in grit and whatever else decided to stick to my car. The pictures don't quite do the level of dirt justice.

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

    After spending 12 dollars on a carwash that was only spitting out water, I decided to the Wolfgang waterless wash for the first time.

    I did it pretty quick as it was a chilly 40*.

    Pretty happy with the product!

    Why were you doing that outside? The man cave is too full of Mustangs to fit another Ford inside for a waterless wash? Or were you doing a rinseless?

    Shoot, I thought you only had 4 Mustangs, not 6...I must not be paying attention. Glad you liked the Wolfgang rinseless, that was always a decent product, I still have some somewhere, just been trying to use up some other ones.
