    1,000 Miles To Detailfest

    It will be just under 1000 miles to drive to detailfest . I was wondering what to use for the ride as an lsp.Give me some suggestions I have 476, 845, fusion and ss2. For sealers I have dg501, 105 and 3m t.p.p. and poliseal. What do you suggest.

    I think 845 in multi pole-coats will work for that drive, after everytime you gas up wipe the front end down with a QD and other front area's of your ride too. Have a nice drive............

    A DFIII Ed and his buddy saran wrapped a white corvette and made it needing nothing more than a quick wash and unwrapping.

    That would make the ride seem a lot shorter. Or maybe make it longer and a overnight

    With a co-pilot like that I would never make it to the detail fest .

    It was the clear plastic, that they use to cover new carpet. It came from HD, in the carpet section. I think it comes in a 25 or 50 foot role, and about 1 1/2- 2 feet wide.
    We put it across the front bumper, behind the wheels, and covered the whole back end. It made the clean up from atlanta to DTF so much easier.
