    A goodbye to winter wash

    They are calling for another possible snowfall next week. I am so over this winter.

    Hey y'all. So, all my orders are starting to arrive, some of which contain new microfiber towels. Do y'all recommend washing new towels before use? Also I have a bunch of older towels I'd like to wash and bring along for the ride. Is straight Woolite okay or should I mix with Tide Free or...

    Thanks Dave. I figured I'd watch some videos and try to get the right technique down. I usually see folks running the steamer with a brush attachment which keeps the tip itself from contacting surfaces. I've also seen some folks wrapping the brush with a terry towel. Yes, I don't want to...

    Awesome man, thanks much! I was trying not to spend too much ahead of the event (that went right out the window) but somehow I missed picking up a rinseless and waterless wash. I live in an apartment complex where regular washes are a no-no, so this is a critical need. That and a good QD.

    #newbiealert LSP? What's that short for? :D Yep, after reading a bunch of threads about it, I thought WG with 845 on top would be a good combo. I'm also hoping to see some cool samples for my exterior trim and interior plastics and vinyls. Defintely want the inside looking and...

    It dawned on me today that I am going to spend all weekend getting my car as clean as humanly possible, then proceed to drive it home on the PA Turnpike for 90 minutes where it will become absolutely gross again. Ugh... Maintenance will be covered on Sunday night, yes? :D I see a lot of...

    Bear in mind I'll be driving up Saturday and may show up at the shop as early as 10:30 AM, though possibly closer to 11:00 AM. I'm hoping the hotel lets me check in early. Whatever you have in mind for Saturday, I'm game. If it's "DA Boot Camp" where I get to learn the ropes on an old panel...

    Okay. Just keep in mind I'm driving up in a Mustang. Once I've loaded my overnight bag and few bottles of wax and sealant I'll be low on trunk space! :D Kidding (sort of)... I'll definitely bring the steamer for you to check out.

    I picked up a McCulloch MC-1275. I've been watching this on Amazon for days and grabbed it once it went on sale. Yes, the pre-treatment is for the carpets! :) I don't have an extractor but I read the stuff works just as well with a steamer. We shall see.

    I really got that for my wife's Forester. This week I bought a decent vacuum and steamer and plan to hit her car hard when the weather warms. Since I'll have it I figured I'd bring it along.

    I'm hoping we have time for that too. I keep talking about it, but yeah you should see my wife's Forester. It's atrocious. No way am I letting my Mustang get like that.

    It does have decals, right down the middle of the vertical panels and doors.

    You got that right! Frankly, that bug bit me the second I bought the Pony. I want to keep her shiny and clean as long as possible. They're going to have to bury me in that car.

    Great idea. As soon as all my stuff arrives I'll put my list together.

    Sweet. Should be a lot of fun! Will be booking the hotel room probably by the end of the week. Once I do that, there is no turning back. :) With all the Spring Sales going on, I did grab a few additional items for the day. Applicator pads, brushes, etc. I also grabbed a small steamer...
