    Griots G9 worth it? advice please

    Love mine, by no means am I a professional using it daily - just wanted to begin detailing my own vehicles and researched a lot here. I ended up purchasing the G9 late last year and couldn’t be happier.

    Shout out to Griot's

    One more reason I picked up the g9 over portercable’s 7424xp.

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Coming in late on this one with the current stage I’m at, but with a lot of advice and help selecting products over the weekend I managed to wash decon with iron x clay bar my vehicle. Used Blackfire one step on the entire vehicle and then applied one coat of wolfgangs trim sealant to all my...

    Black Trim Upkeep?

    Can anyone tell me if it’s viable to use WETS and top it with wolfgangs ceramic spray coating also? Or am I best using only one not both? If so it’s it a typical 24hr wait for cure between products?

    Overwhelmed With Options (New Car Protection)

    Got it thanks, just wanted to be sure I understood correctly and was not just making an assumption. Will do 👍, I’ve found myself practicing that lately as I had a handful of good micro fibers and a pile of so/so ones, so taking advantage of every side of the good one so had was priority.

    Overwhelmed With Options (New Car Protection)

    Is a waterless wash again a bit overkill or is this standard practice prior to using a AIO when i've let the vehicle sit in my garage for a week? I was honestly planning to do a quick wipe down with a microfiber or two with some optimum no rinse diluted just to be a lubricant in a spray bottle...

    Overwhelmed With Options (New Car Protection)

    Oh and if I could redo it I’d pour the BF iron remover product in a better spray bottle, that thing was beyond garbage. Also I would wear gloves, I’m inexperienced so knew I’d be learning, but passing this along to whoever may be the next guy like me ��

    Overwhelmed With Options (New Car Protection)

    Well I figured why not just post an update here on progress. Too many interruptions and other tasks to make much headway but I did however accomplish a good wash, BF iron decon, and another wash before bringing it in the garage for next week to take the G9 and BF one step to it. As well as the...

    I’m questioning joining this forum/AGO

    I already see the need for some additional cabinets/shelves just for my current and future investments from here. :laughing: The 4Runner is great, agreed on the fact its a bit underpowered. They’ve also manipulated the pedal response far too much to likely help on gas mileage but also those...

    I’m questioning joining this forum/AGO

    I’m debating if I made the right choice joining the AGO forum and store. I’ve now found myself becoming more educated than I expected, and seeing more crap on the wife’s car than I did before. I’m also looking at the AGO store like it’s F’in Christmas every week; and I’ve only been here...

    Paint Correction? or Just Seal and Wax?

    I’ve reached out with a question to modify my order prior to it shipping and they responded fairly quickly, and offered to assist. I believe they would help you change your order if you choose to. While it was only one interaction with AGO service, I was impressed how quick of a response and...

    Black fire APC off label use?

    Correction, I was reading the interior cleaner not their APC I apologize. Apparently it may be an actual contender, but very expensive compared to other products at local stores.

    Black fire APC off label use?

    It’s 100% water based, you’ll probably just waste valuable product and your time. Just go buy natural degreasers, mine seal spirits, turpentine, etc.
