  1. Re: Is there an easy way to treat inner plastic fenders on trucks

    Thanks everyone for the good suggestions. I may pick up the Mequiar's and try it in my insect sprayer and see how it goes.

  2. Is there an easy way to treat inner plastic fenders on trucks

    Hi All,

    So today I didn't have much time but I couldn't stand the way my fender wells looked after the winter so I got out some tire black and a sponge and went about coating the plastic fender...
  3. Re: Tips & Techniques for using a Spray Detailer to Remove Light Dust, Fingerprints and Smudges

    Mike, thanks for this. I was pretty sure the snow flurry spotted dust was more than what would be safe for a spray detailer and your post confirmed it.

    Re: First winter wash

    And just a comment about the ceramic coating. It does not prevent a buildup of salt and the buildup does not wash off with just water. My truck required a standard bucket washing to remove the...

    First winter wash

    To set the stage for you southern folks, this is what it looked like 7 days ago after 18" of snow. Luckily we had a stormy warm up for Christmas which washed away most of it.

    Re: winter storage

    I have my shop in my barn. It is mildly insulated and not tight at all. I have a hanging garage heater (Hot Dawg) and I keep it at 36° unless I'm in it which is maybe 5 or 6 eight hour days during...

    Salts Gone

    Putting on IGL Premier or the like? Do I want a short nap towel for applying this or doesn't it matter?

    Re: DI for rinse or not

    Yes, that may be my first choice now that I know my TDS is low. I was looking at the system with the RO membrane because I know they have long life and would mean changing DI even less often

    I...

    Re: DI for rinse or not

    It's not a high capacity system and it will take most of a day to fill a 5 gal bucket but that's all I need.

    Re: DI for rinse or not

    I'm considering a cheap 4 stage RO/DI system (w/refilable DI cartridge), 60 bucks actually. I already have what I need to autofill a 5 gal bucket. I figure the filters will last a long time for my...

    Re: DI for rinse or not

    Thanks all. Familiar with RO/DI as I had a reef tank for 10 years. Not a professional.

    I do have the big WORX battery washer (725psi) that I purchased specifically for winter washing and have...

    DI for rinse or not

    Hi all,

    The TDS out of my outside spigot is 28. Would I benefit from a DI system or is that low enough? The kitchen sink is at about 45.

    Thanks

    I'm in NH and my truck isn't garaged so we'll see how it goes. I did spend the money on a battery operated washer which can draw from a bucket so hopefully I can somewhat keep up the washes or at...
