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

    I went over the trim with Black Wow again, it applied very easily today, the temp was 34C/93f so it was flowing very easily. I then wiped over the paint with Carpro Ech2o as a QD, it wasn't dirty. I also gave the tyre a very light touch up with Autoglym Instant Tyre Dressing. Then moved it back outside, 2 hours later it's raining, which I knew was coming, sort of why I did it.

    How do you like the CSS as a drying aid? My car usually wears Griots Ceramic 3 in 1 Wax as well. Been using OG Drying Aid and damn, that stuff is slick! Curious about CSS still though.

    Only the second time using it and it’s on a friends car so my impressions are limited. It seemed fair. Definitely not up their with elixer but not bad either.

    I sprayed the engine bay down with Griot's Garage Brillant Shine rinseless wash and wiped down. Once dry I sprayed it down with Koch Chemie Mp and closed the hood and washed the ENWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Took the g/f's Cruze to my touch-free wash after cleaning the EN, had to wash the dealership off of itWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    For the EN I started making up some Griot's Garage Brillant Shine rinseless wash and took some of it to use in the engine bay. A simple wipedown was all that was needed, followed by a spraying of Koch Chemie Mp and closed the hoodWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Next was a RW of the EN and tire & wheel cleaning using Brake Buster and all 4 brushes, used the IK Foam Pro 12 as a garden hose to rinse them downWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I dressed the tires with Auto Fanatic tire dressing and called it a dayWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Removed stock spoiler on this 24 M440I and the old adhesive was a nightmare using the steamer to get the first layers off. Than used Stoner Tarminator and it made quick work of it!!!

    Winter wash today. AMMO Frothe Anti Salt in the SPTA foamer at the self wash bay. Then I used some Griot's BF RW I had leftover from last wash to do a quick wipe down.


    Sprayed the WeatherTechs with P&S Xpress, scrubbed them with my tire brush and wiped them off. Didn't get as clean as hosing them off but they'll do for now.

    Wait, you pulled off the factory spoiler and glued a non-factory one on? That's not very reassuring thinking that BMW's are wizzing down the highway at 85mph and the spoiler is held on by double-stick tape.
