    Progress on the SB Honda

    Was taking care of some road debris damage on the '20 Explorer ST today with my spiffy new G8 which it did in spectacular fashion.... & then I did something stupid. I tried it on about 1sqft of the right quarter panel of the SB Honda... Now I'll need to do the rest of the car to match that one...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    My G8/G9 kit arrived so I put the G8, orange pad & some Boss correcting cream to work on the damage caused by the road debris last weekend. Sorted! No trace of the damage at all :)

    Blackest/Darkest (external) vinyl trim goop/coating?

    Explorer ST has gray vinyl trim around the entire vehicle.. What product would make it look darker? (short of dying/painting it)

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Gonna be taking care of this in the next week or so... Debris dropped all over the freeway, was avoiding it all & then some putz sent a 18in L shaped metal bracket spinning from the middle lane... There were two vehicles & two bikes pulled over on the center divider from hitting whatever all...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Not so much a *today* as a "this month" (Late Birthday or early Christmas pressies) Had a minor splurge: McCulloch 1385 SunJoe SPX 3001 Griots G8 & G9 (bought the kit as it works out cheaper & comes with other stuff for less than buying the G8 & G9 separately) & a bottle of ONR Gonna buy the...

    Possibly stupid pressure washer question....

    I decided to just add a SunJoe 25ft extension to what it came with. It showed up today. Ops Chk ok :) Already added QD's. Gonna leave the power cord in the sun so I can get all the damn kinks out of it, maybe find an old cable reel to wrap it around.

    Possibly stupid pressure washer question....

    I guess there's also the deal with the reel to hose connection on the 3001 which is a bit of a ballache apparently.

    Possibly stupid pressure washer question....

    SunJoe SPX3001, comes with a 20 or 25ft 1/4in hose.... Obviously it needs upgrading to a 50ft hose... Any reason not to upgrade to a 3/8 hose?

    Current Favorite Soap/Shampoo

    Bought the RainX car wash at Wally World last weekend, far superior to that TW crap & the car still looks like I washed it an hour ago, not last Sunday. On Monday it was really dusty in the morning, but that all blew off the first time it was driven.

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Was going to wash the SB Honda & the Explorer ST today, but when I walked outside I noticed it's "pollen week" & both vehicles are yellow with the stuff. Plus we're due the rain absolutely pissing down all day on Monday... So ask me again a few days :)

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Dismantled, cleaned & reassembled my computer keyboard. I used Megs Ultimate Waterless Wash & Wax on the face*. It looks better than the day I unwrapped it. I can't believe the difference. *Two sprays had it mostly looking great, then put a squirt on an MF to get the three somewhat manky...

    Current Favorite Soap/Shampoo

    Bought some TW Max Power Car Wash. Absolutely NOT my favorite, needs washing with a different soap after to remove the residue left behind. Probably throw the rest of it in the trash.

    drying towel , 1 big towel or 2 small ones?

    I have the big blue ones sold at Wally World for $4.99. Managed to dry the Explorer ST with just one last week & didn't need to wring it out.

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Looks like I finally managed to remove some of the water spots on the ST, but it took Diamond Cut on a MF to do it.
