I don't actually use the handle that much, part of the time I was actually using it single handed, like in the pic, because I'm so staunch, lol. Actually it was because I was standing on the back tyre to get extra reach over the roof and I was hanging on with the other hand, it's a knee killer falling off those tyres. I'm going to take it off because it does make it difficult to get around protrusions like the mirrors, taillights, and snorkel, and I preferred using the top grip, but then the handle was getting in the way.

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
After yesterday's wash and polish, I applied NV Lustre late last night, then layered NV Jet on top this afternoon. The tyres were completely undressed after being power washed yesterday, so I put a very light spray of Meg's Hyper Dressing (4:1) on them, I do like a very natural rubber look.

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
After a stormy day Tuesday, the EN needed a wash, so after work I got after it️
I reached for DIY Detail RW, RW wash sponge, my IK sprayer, a couple drying towels, universal mf for the tires & wheels as well as a used grout sponge for the tire and wheel cleaning
I also cleaned and applied this MOBIL1 decal, OEM for older C4 Corvettes IIRC, where the cheap, peeling Shell Hyundai recommends sticker was peeling. This is a high quality piece and while I don't use 5w30, it looks amazing️

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
Took my g/f's Cruze to the touch-free wash and used a mix of DIY Detail Incredible Suds and Griot's Garage foaming surface prep to pre-wash the car
Once home I noticed the lower sections still had road film, so I used my bottle of DG WW to make it right
