    Foam Cannon soap

    I use honey dew by chemical brothers and it does a good job for me. I have a cheapo ryobi 1600 psi power washer w a cobra hose and mosmatic gun. I tried blackfire Ot along ago but wasnt crazy about it. I believe there are also boosters you can add to your soap of choice for extra suds/thickness.

    PBMG brands 50% off sale

    This is the best sale i’ve seen on Auto Geek. If it weren’t in the middle of a pandemic I would load up. But considering the times I will unfortunately have to pass.

    Who else is working from home now???

    I work from home about 50% of the time. Now with this pandemic I’m working from home like 90% of the time. Very few people are willing to or want to meet in person. Fine by me. Today was my kids’ (5th grade and 2nd grade) first day of online learning and it went amazingly well. Friday they...

    Got me a new car and coated it and.....

    not sure how to update original post. Adding a couple of pictures here. Also, i washed the car on Sunday and dried it. So far, doesn't seem to be attracting lint or dust so happy about that. I considered coating the leather but since its synthetic not sure if its necessary. Any thoughts...

    New M340i - Help me decide what to use!

    To me, optimum gloss coat is an oldie but a goodie. One thing I like about it is that it does not have a strong odor like CQuartz up or Gyeon. And you can use optigloss as a maintenance / drying aid product that will extend life of coating.

    Got me a new car and coated it and.....

    hey guys, thanks for the responses. I applied the coatings on Monday and Tuesday of this week so only about 3-4 days old. I don't think I'm supposed to wash it until after 7 days although i might cheat and do it a little sooner. It will be garage kept but this week my wife had to drive it as...

    Got me a new car and coated it and.....

    So I got rid of my beloved 2014 CLS550. I had the car for 3 years and I loved it. I recently tuned it and it was a beast but I had an incident w it where it lost power on me during a high speed acceleration and I lost confidence in it. I took the tune off and all was back to normal but I...

    Stocked up on dry goods. This coronavirus pandemic has everyone spooked. Supermarkets in my town are empty.

    Ordered next car

    Bill - I have a PC, a griots, and Rupes and plenty of pads and producst so I should be able to handle the condition it arrives in :). I plan on a full detail w polish anyway before coating so if there is some swirling I should be able to knock it out. My CLS has white paint and it is really...

    Ordered next car

    Thanks Everyone. Rambler, I didn’t know they made interior film kits. Thanks for posting that. I will consider it. I recently ordered one for my front bumper of my 550 but I’m waiting for it to get warmer before I apply. Guz- I will likely use uk3.0 as I have plenty and trying to get through...

    Ordered next car

    Just ordered my wife’s next car. Her current lease is up in May so we went in and and placed an order on a 2020 Mb GLC43 AMG. It’s smaller than her current GLE AMG43 and the replacement AMG53 won’t be out until Dec of 2020 so we figured the GLC size should be fine for a few years, especially...

    Ceramic coatings application vs ambient temperature....

    Glad to hear I am not the only one that had that experience. I don’t think I waited 20 min per panel as I was worried I would end up having to re-polish my whole car again to remove if I left it on too long. I think I waited about 10 min per panel. When it warms up again I will do a thorough...

    Ceramic coatings application vs ambient temperature....

    I recently did CQ UK3 and Gliss. I’m also in the north east. I had to wait days to crack 50 degrees. When I did it it was taking really long to flash. I say it’s better to do it in warmer weather.

    Gt3rs....

    Beautiful car and great work. I like the 50/50 door shot. Really shows how bad it was. The end result is excellent.
