    Just an appreciation post for Best of Show Detailer. Used it in full sun on my jet black car today. Such an amazing product in function, plus it smells so damn good… probably my favorite scent of any product, Griot’s or otherwise (maybe tied with Speed Shine actually). Slickness just after...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    How do you like the CSS as a drying aid? My car usually wears Griots Ceramic 3 in 1 Wax as well. Been using OG Drying Aid and damn, that stuff is slick! Curious about CSS still though. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Certainly nervous, but I can also easily see us pulling out the win! I love how it seems like the whole country is rallying around the Lions 🥹 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Did my first “winter wash” of 2024 today. It was above freezing so I sprayed down the car with P&S Absolute diluted at 128:1 then rinsed with garden hose. Brought the car into the garage and turned on the heat. Proceeded to mist down the already wet car with more 128:1 Absolute and then did a...

    Following up on my issue with Perfecting Cream, they sent me a new bottle. I’ll be testing it out in the next week or so. I’ll come back to comment on how it turns out [emoji1696] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I just did another test strip with a 3” Lake Country green polishing pad using the Perfecting Cream. Same outcome - very hazy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Writing them an email currently! They have been excellent when I’ve dealt with them in the past. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Adding some more context to my last post about Perfecting Cream. Here’s a photo showing my trunk which I just corrected using Correcting Cream. I did a test “strip” with a 3” yellow Perfecting pad and Perfecting Cream. The test strip looks worse than what Correcting Cream did! How on Earth...

    Anyone ever have trouble with Perfecting Cream on a yellow BOSS pad not finishing down very well? Lots of micro-marring. I tried Sonax Perfect Finish and it went away. I then tried the Perfecting Cream again in the same spot and sure enough, the micro-marring returned. It’s not the pad either...

    Here you go! This is even after driving 400 miles over the weekend, followed by a rinseless wash I just did before taking the photos just now. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Just went outside to look at it. It's covered in pollen now :laughing: ... ahhh spring time. I'll probably pull it in the garage to do a rinseless this afternoon. Will post pics then!

    Figured this thread was the best place for me to reiterate my love for Griot's BOSS creams. Just did the fastest and easiest spring paint correction ever. I used Correcting Cream and a couple 5.5/3.5" Lake Country Orange CCS pads on my 7424XP to go over most of my car in just a few hours. The...

    How many here are still using the Porter Cable DA?

    The PC 7424XP is the only machine I own. My dad gave it to me a few years ago and that's what kickstarted me getting into paint correction on my own car and on friend's cars. I use a slew of Lake Country CCS 5.5" and 3.5" pads. I also have tried the Griot's BOSS Perfecting 5.5" pad which I like...
