In the beginning of january I did a full detail on my 335i. I topped with a coat of XMT carnauba finishing glaze with collinite 845IW on top. I've always loved the durability even in the florida sun that my car sees everyday. I snapped a quick picture coming out of work last night after it...

Spray + Gloss

So i was detailing the bathroom this morning before work.... :buffing: Anyways, I bought some new clorox cleaners the other day and they came out with a new bottle design that has the tube fastened to the inside front edge of the bottle. When you tip the bottle forward into a normal spraying...

yea, i'm jealous

i use APC+ diluted 5-1 on wheels/tires/fender liners. No issues so far!

Quite a few shows are giving coverage of the event. Any idea when they'll air?

microfiber towels are designed to grab and hold... not something i'm keen to use on a dirty vehicle. I have always opted for multiple sheepskin mitts with heavy foam gun action providing lubrication.

diluted APC for wheel wells + undercarriage

where do you sign up?

Month and a half old application of collinite. Just washed it an hour ago :) You can see the grills I blacked out and removal of the orange reflectors on the bumper I painted last week as well! http://i.imgur.com/wyzsu98.jpg http://i.imgur.com/S47sQtE.jpg

5 gallon buckets with foam handles. Doesnt hurt your hand as much when lugging around your 2 bucket method!

I always used 4" pads in the past, and recently purchased a set of 6.5" ones. Having used both, i much prefer the 4's because of reasons stated above relating to the pads not spinning with the larger size

*shrug* i drove a scion tc for years and quite a few people told me how wrong of me it was to drive a chick car. haters gonna hate :D

:surrender: that seems like it would be impossible!

about 6 hours. xmt 1 took the longest of everything. I wasn't getting the cut I remembered from the past with it. really happy with xmt2 on an orange though! I do need to invest in a lug nut brush. My old tC had exposed lug nuts and they were really easy to clean. This car though...

nah it was about 2 hours at any one time. I've used pads this long numerous times in the past :( I wonder if an RMA is something that could be done

Another long day of detailing for me! :buffing: After doing my BF's car last weekend i decided it was time to give my own car a shot at looking like a million bucks. The car had pretty significant swirling due to numerous dealership washes, nothing i couldnt handle though! I started off...

Once i finish them they soaked in 10/1 apc unti l finished the car. Massage them by hand to get product out. Rinse them out well. Spin dry with a PC. Leave them to finish drying over night. Into a ziploc bag.

Losing firmness is something i'm used to. That realistically happens the first time they get washed. I'm talking about the pad and velcro backing separating.

I'm just trying to get an idea of the durability y'all are getting on LC 6.5" pads. I recently bought a combo pack, and i'm in the middle of the 2nd full detail with these pads and ever so suddenly my orange pad backing separates from the pad itself and the pad goes flying off into the grass...
