    What did you do today non-detailing related?

    That's the beauty of a supercharged engine, no lag!

    What did you do today non-detailing related?

    I'm guessing you would like the Boss 302 Leguna Seca? At the time, FPV gave the same visual treatment to GT R-Spec. This was based on the regular GT, but sported a much firmer suspension tune paired with wider rear wheels and tires. The supercharged V8 was the same, but they included a launch...

    Favorite rinseless towel?

    Not a silly question at all. I too prefer using towels, but having the wrong type of towel can make the process counterproductive. For rinse-less, I started out using what I already had but wasn't happy, so ended up buying a selection of single towels to find something I liked. These were then...

    Armour cladding my New Maverick

    Nice work, you can clearly see the effort that went into the paint.

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Yeah, that sort of thing ticks me off too. Quite often, when a car company is falling, its because of the people at the top being not at all interested in what they are supposed to be selling, they are just numbers guys. The notable exception to that being Alan Mulally who dragged Ford out of...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Under her watch, GM exited several global markets including Australia, New Zealand, Korea, the UK, Germany....................all of Europe actually. Those arms were sold off to the French (PSA) or closed down and not sold to avoid someone else cashing in on the name (Holden). I never liked...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    The main benefit of the Kranzle's is the serviceability, in theory you'd get 20 years out of one. From my point of view, the best thing about them is the smoother, quieter sound. No high-pitched screeching, no surging, no ramp up/ramp down. I do however realize it's a lot of money to part with...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    For US customers, the 1622 only exists because Matt has exclusivity on the 1322. Because other retailers wanted to sell the same thing, Kranzle modified the 1622 with total stop as well as being able to run on a 15-amp circuit (the 1322 needs a 20-amp), which makes it better suited to older...

    Are we still using WG Exterior Trim Sealant?

    Not an obvious choice, but I really like Carpro Reload on black trim. Why? Because it does the same thing as a water-based dressing such as 303 or Perl, as in providing a subtle enhancement and protection from UV. But unlike those products, it can actually last longer than a few days. And...

    Are we still using WG Exterior Trim Sealant?

    Is it weird that I know exactly what car that is going by the mirrors? :ROFLMAO:

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    The funny thing is, despite all the hype, of the four Kranzle's he sells, three of them are weak as p.ss! The 1322, which is exclusive to his store, he sells it with the following tag line.................... "The Best Pressure Washer on Earth". The pathetic flow is why he does a tandem 1322...

    Cowl Cleaning - While I let the Solution Finish cure, I directed attention to the areas hidden by all this trim. Considering the age of the car, I was expecting more.................. To clean these areas, I used both Green Star, ONR and more Rip-n-Rag's. Hidden by the trim, the base of...

    Ranger Wiper Trim Restoration Nothing ages a car more than faded black plastic trim. While certain areas are easy to deal with, say the wing mirrors or bumper inserts, others are harder to do properly. As such, these areas tend to get neglected and therefore show age sooner. Sitting at the top...

    Microfibers are super linty.

    I've always air-dried microfiber indoors. Air dried because of the heat potentially ruining towels, and indoors to reduce the possibility of contamination. However, over the last week I've been drying towels in the dryer on low heat. And wow, the towels are coming out softer and...

    Had to replace both the washing machine and dishwasher this week. :cautious: It was Ranger to rescue, picking up the new units and the disposal of the old machines. I hadn't planned on doing a wash today, but it's been raining and the disposal site covered in mud. So, the Ranger got a second...
