    What is your favourite drying towel?

    I've used the Meguiars WW for a few years now and have been happy. I picked up some "scratch and dent" Cobra WW drying towels and Griots Ultra-thick MF drying towels. Overall not blown away like a lot of the other reviews I've read. The Meguiars WW towels are well priced and work great. If...

    On my truck? The BFWD is toppedwith BFMS. My wife's Tahoe didn't get anything else besides Klassie as it's white. So far I'm happy with both sealants. My detail on the Tahoe and topping it with Klassie really made the white paint shine. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    Thanks! It looks great and overall I'm happy. I really hope the sealant lasts 12 months. 6 months is the minimum I can accept though. I'm way too busy to wax every few months. I'm going to give McKee's tire coating a try. I plan on using McKee's Hydro Blue on the wheels. I'm testing the BFWD...

    Beading, 1 week after. Pretty happy. The windows were only coated with BFWD so it's interesting to see the difference with BFWD and BFMS. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    Paint, chrome, and wheels got Blackfire Midnight Sun. I have an order of McKee's Hydro Blue and McKee's tire coating coming in soon so if it doesn't last long... No big deal. To be honest I like the Blackfire wax products for their ease of use; but I didn't get the WHIPLASH (pop and depth) I...

    Thanks! Its took me roughly 8 hours with various derailments from my wife and 2 yr old. Not too bad for an enthusiast. And yes... its a lot of squarefootage. I'll probably detail the inside next weekend. We're about 45 minutes outside of San Diego, last weekend it was 100! Sent from my...

    2016 Silverado 2500HD

    Hey all. We had some cool weather (85 in the garage) for this weekend and my truck was in dire need of a detail... The paint needed minor correction as it had swirls, scratches and two holograms that were instilled into the paint by some idiot at the dealerships outside paint shop. (The roof...

    Thanks I appreciate your input. Im going to try steel wool just to see what i can get off so I have an idea of what steel wool can do for future detailing. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    Yeah, Logan is known for using a 3M adhesive for adhering aluminum panels to the steel frame of the trailer. Frankly I'd be shocked if it's aluminum... we would have gotten one hell of a deal if it's aluminum! If they are as useless as most CS reps usually are; I'll just have to test as I would...

    I haven't put a magnet to the trailer to see if the sides are steel or aluminum, but I believe it's steel sided. Logan Coach trailers are definitely some of the better made horse trailers so I'm hoping it's a paint job similar to a car. I'm going to call the manufacture to see how they paint...

    Cleaning negected aluminum wheels - suggestions?

    Thanks! I can't wait to see how it looks after I finish with the paint and the rest if the tread plate. I doubt it's had anything besides getting washed a few times a year Don't get me wrong, the previous owners took great care of it. They obviously kept it under cover since there is almost...

    I used the Turtle Wax Chrome & Metal polish on this side. I'm going to do a 50/50 test between the Chemical Guys Heavy Metal Polish and the Turtle Wax Chrome & Metal Polish on the front tread plate to see what works better... I tried both of these on the one of the barrels with the MF pad on my...

    I forgot to mention, the barrels are not smooth... the wheels have very little groves. They almost look like the wheels were cut on a lathe. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    Cleaning negected aluminum wheels - suggestions?

    Hey all i hope this is the right place to ask this question. I've searched for about a week before posting this... What cleaner should I use to clean the barrels? I've tried Sonax Full Effect, Iron-x, Eagle One PVD & Aluminum Cleaner, and Simple Green Extreme @ 1:1 all with heavy agitation...
