    I plan to do a couple of "mass" batches like Pinnacle WW concentrate and Pinnacle APC at different dilution ratios.
    I did the same thing. Gonna mix up a gallon of nanoskin glide and rain prep so I don't have to measure it out in the 32oz bottle midway through a detail.

    Re: Post Your Unpacking Pictures

    More scents from Chemical Guys showed up today. Already had stripper scent and figured I needed a few to change things up as it would probably get old after awhile even though it hasn't yet.

    First impressions, love the Pina Colada, Watermelon smells great too as does the Honeydew. Mangocello seems like it would be great too but need to get it in a vehicle first. The New Car scent at first seems odd, have to see what its like in a vehicle. New Cat scents never seem to be appealing to me. The Leather scent smells a lot like the New Car at first, again have to get them in a vehicle to really tell.

    My sense of smell is not very good to begin with so its hard for me to really compare them all back to back. I also only ever spray enough until I can barely smell it as I know it will be overpowering for others if I spray too much.

    Also got their free applicator pads.

    I recently picked up their new car scent as well. Be careful with that stuff, I would use only one spray under the seat in a small car and two in a large sedan or truck. That stuff is powerful and really spreads out after spraying.

    I've tried the new car scent and you're right, it's powerful stuff. But I don't know how it smells like a new car. I don't think it does. It just smells like a strong chemical to me.

    Re: Post Your Unpacking Pictures

    I only have their pina colada scent, which smells amazing btw, but several times I have gotten a headache from spraying too much, its really strong stuff.

    Im also curious if anyone has any idea what ratio to dilute them at. On the CG website it says they can be diluted as desired with water but dont suggest any ratios.

    Re: Post Your Unpacking Pictures

    I'm interested in seeing how the watermelon and mangocello both smell. Let me know how you like those!

    I feel like I have to spray a ton of the stripper scent to actually smell it, and it only lasts like one day...

    I agree, it smells a lot like their leather but with other smells I can't pin point. Not what I expected. Can't tell if I care for it at all or not.

    Im liking the pina colada it actually smells like a Pina Colada, lots of pineapple, no fake smell.

    The mangocello is interesting but smells good, its hard to pinpoint the smell. Watermelon smells great.

    The stripper scent only seems to last a day or two. I've found after a few days of spraying it though it seems to linger longer.

    Just a small order. Does anyone know if the EZ detail brush mini is supposed to bend? I thought it did, but mine doesn't.
