    I tried Mckee’s Plastic Trim Restorer under the hood & on the windshield cowl for the 1st time. It goes on nice and made it look really good.

    It was indeed a great time + I got to meet alot of cool people and take home a huge bag of free detailing supplies.

    Here’s a pic of me with Mike Phillips & Jason Labato from that day.

    Excellent mustache , my friend!

    You resemble my cousin's husband who is a great dude and is crazy about taking care of his vehicle.

    Quick wipe down. Has anyone used this combo? I really like the scent of the spray wax. I initially bought it specifically for my 4 post lift What did you do today, in regards to detailing?. Suppose to use a wax on the posts periodically for less friction.What did you do today, in regards to detailing?-img_20240322_180452847-jpgWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?-img_20240322_180830818-jpg

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

    I finally got hold of my brother's car, I promised to give it some attention about 3 years ago, but he was always too busy to get it to me. I've got it till tomorrow afternoon, it only gets a wash when he takes it in for a service, that should tell you everything. Here's some pics of the work in progress, wheels were cleaned with the last of my NV Purge, then I foamed it with Meg's Gold Class, just to see how it went, sloppy foam, I don't know if it actually removed anything. Followed that up with a 2B wash with Reset. There's also a pic of the centre console, to quote Elle Driver from Kill Bill 2, "Eww Gross", I really hate doing interiors. Also the tyres didn't look right when I was cleaning the wheels, every one of them was down to 21-22psi. WTH.

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

    After decontaminating with a clay pad, I did a test polish on the hood of the Outlander, it seems the paint on this is a bit on the hard side. I used my Shine Mate RO with a Black Diamond Blue pad with Menzerna PF2500, it brought it up ok, this thing has a lot of RIDs, so it was never going to be perfect, then I switched to a red pad and went over it with Carpro Essence, and it looks slightly better again.

    After walking the dogs tonight I thought I'd do a sit down job, so I wiped over the centre console and dash, began with Orange Agent from Bowden's, then finished it off with TWHS Inside Job. I don't know what that was on the upper steering column, I really hope it was spilled hot chocolate.
