If you do look into modern adjustables just be aware that the Merkur Futur is an aggressive adjustable - I have one and at its lowest setting it is more aggressive than a Gillette Fatboy at its...

You can still apply PBL in summer outside. I just applied PBL to my car outside in the sun on a day while it was 93 degrees. You just have to work quicker and probably use a bit more product but my...

Sounds like you had a great time even if you may had been a little limited.

Glad to here you are doing better than you were last year!

I'm assuming you were out there helping Joe@Superior Shine?

Excellent work...

I still don't understand why you do not want to use PBL coating yet you want something similar?

I don't see the logic in this.

Thanks for the comments!

You can see the spilled amount of polish in one of the reflection shots, that nice ugly grey spot in the reflection of the driver door.

Finally had the time to get out and detail the car. After a test spot found that Blackfire SRC Finishing Polish and a white CCS pad were all that would be needed to remove the swirls from the paint....

You do realize that Wolfgang sealant you used has a 6 month durability right?

Beading is from the sealant whether your comment of 3 weeks and 7 washes was sarcastic or not. The picture should be...

Your vehicle is most likely showing beading characteristics from the recently applied sealant so they are not a true representation of any beading your product many produce.

I prefer a single...

Those exhaust tips don't look that bad at all. You should easily get that cleaned up without any steel or bronze wool needed at all.

A little metal polish and those will be clean as new!

Bronze wool will be softer than steel wool but both are still significantly more coarse than using a polish.

Is there a need to get that aggressive when cleaning your exhaust tips?

Does a...

I installed that exhaust system on my car in October and March 15th was the first time I have cleaned them.

The car is a DD and I have a heavy foot quite often running it up to 7K RPM so the car...

No need for any steel wool

MAAS metal polish on my exhaust tips, a little before and after for you.

This is not a good product for cars. It goes on as an opaque white not clear and it has a dull finish, not a nice glossy finish. Unless you have a very specific client that wants a matte white finish...

If you are wondering what product it is that Nissan is applying to the vehicle hear is a link to the product - it is called Ultra Ever Dry and it is made by Ultratech International

I ordered the PBL shampoo when I ordered the coating and cleansing polish because I was looking for a new shampoo and figured a shampoo in the same line as the coating just made sense.

1 pump per...

Washed the car today with some Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Coating Shampoo. I have used this shampoo wash a few times and thought today would be a great day to get a before and after comparison shot...

I have only coated 2 vehicles with PBL and one of them I coated then a week later I topped it with a wax and I like the look of the coating topped with a wax, it seemed to bring a depth to the shine....

You did a great job, car looks fantastic!

Keep us updated on how long it lasts

Thank you for the detailed answer! I understand your reasoning now for using it.

Great job on the car!

Just wondering, why would you apply a booster to a freshly coated surface?

I was under the impression that a booster is not needed until further down the road to revitalize the coating.

Suspension will have to be replaced, shocks only last 75,000 and none of the components have most likely been changed. Many people neglect their suspension as it is easy to not fix worn parts there....

I keep a tiny sample size bottle of a waterless wash and a microfiber or two in the glove box for bird bombs or bugs or whatever else I may find on the car when I come out to it.

When I take trips...

Best shoes I have found for when there is a high probability they will get wet or for use as boat shoes or for river hikes is Teva's.

The soles are very durable and they are made for the water so...

Waxes are a very subjective product when it comes to appearance. You want one with plenty of fill capacity to be able to fill in the swirls.

While it is not a wax I like Poorboy's Black Hole Glaze...
