Nice work! What pad did you use?

As a Kentucky fan, I say it all the time. Go "Big Blue!"

Regardless of RW brand, I always use the standard dilution as a pre-soak.

I use it 3:1 or 4:1 for exterior cleaning like wheels, tires and even paint (mostly as a pre soak for bugs and tar). Don't let it dry on paint though! I'll dilute 10:1 for interior cleaning where I really need something strong. ONR (standard dilution) and Meguiar's Quik Interior Cleaner are...

I've used the Duragloss plush drying towels and various waffle weave towels like the Meguair's Water Magnet and Cobras that are sold here. I must be in the minority that prefers the waffle weave. Seems like the plusher towels I've used didn't absorb as well for some reason. I do use a drying...

Awesome! Duragloss is the first auto detailing brand I remember as a kid to wash my parents cars. My uncle ran a CarQuest and always gave us some for Christmas. I still use it today and I'm sure this stuff will be great!

I go through the touchless car wash, but first I pre-spray the wheels, tires and any really dirty panels with Optimum Power Clean. I may even use a tire brush if they need it. After that, I drive home (not far) and do a rinseless or waterless wash in the garage. Works great. Ultima has a...

Awesome! I miss my '85 blue Toyota 4x4. Wish I lived closer...

I don't think it starts until March
