The paint I was working on looked fine after one stage, no matter which pad I used. Paint was pretty hard though, and I wasn’t chasing perfection as the job was a favor for a friend on an older car. If it was mine, and had softer paint I would have tried a test with a softer pad afterwards to...

I got very, very minimal dusting using it this weekend. It didn’t dry out, and it was maybe 85 in the garage, no humidity. What was most impressive was the ease of wipe off, which is a factor to me. I hate fighting with polish to remove. I used the dark purple cutting, and light purple polish...

Another happy late birthday to you Don. Didn’t see this yesterday.

Will be interesting to see if AG carries it.

Cool. I’m debating one, just wanted to hear your thoughts if you had one.

You can definitely see the difference in the photos. Do you have the Mille? If so, let us know what you think about it.

Are they chrome? I’ve seen Camry’s with a white dual exhaust. And hoping it wasn’t some dude gluing PVC to the rear panel for a ricer look. (I live in SoCal. We see this stuff here). Presuming they are chrome, one more vote here for P21 polishing soap. Coating them with a rim/metal/wheel...

Glad you like it, I have one and it’s one of my favorite detailing toys. I agree with you on the point that it tends to fall over if you set it down. I’ve never found a solution to that. The gun allows a one (rinse) bucket wash, which I prefer. Blasting a panel and hitting the mitt with a shot...

The semantics of Cloths vs Towels might depend on which side of the pond you are on. In the UK they are cloths. On this forum they are usually towels.

Nice work!

Me too. I have PFM towels and Gyeon silk dryers that are over a year old and still as absorbent as day one. These have never been used with drying aids.

Check out the PBL leather and vinyl coating. It doesn’t change the look of the dash hardly at all on my cars. It’s hard to tell if there is anything there by looking at it, but it feels “smooth,” not quite “slick.” The feel is most noticeable when I do my routine interior wipe down with...

You could also buy a couple of darker colored towels, like black, dark blue, and a red, then wash a half dozen of the yellows and one of the dark ones at a time. It will dye transfer and tint the group of yellows. The tint won’t bother the towels. Just like finger paints for kids. Yellow and...

Nice work!

We don’t have a “Two Bucket” amendment to the constitution? I’m going to write my congressman. /s

You are describing a perfect situation for Rinseless Wash. there is no reason you can’t apply wax afterward. Lots of good tutorials on YouTube from competent detailers. Try looking for Gary Dean Wash Method.

That Ford GT was insane. IIRC, the production number on it was 57. Was chatting with Barry Meguiar about it, he has number 53. Production was limited to 250 in each of the last 2 years. Sent from my iPad using Autogeekonline mobile app

Glad you posted pics. I’ll say hello if I see you guys around the hotel/show. I came out from CA on Friday to check out detail fest. Great event so far.

I've always loved the performance of FK1000 here in SoCal. Less heat than AZ, but still hot and dry most of the year. Right now I'm playing around with can coat. Really liking it so far. Topping with cure on some panels and overcoat on others to test. No complaints. Guz said 6-9 months...

I picked up a BRS after watching a couple different video of Yvan using it. I have tried it once, and will give it another shot, but I’m on the fence about it. This was my process: 3 gallons of distilled water in bucket with grit guard. Soaked BRS in bucket for an hour or so. Used standard...
