    New Black car questions

    Wanted to update this thread... Yesterday I did my 1st rinse-less wash (twice! :doh:) I used mainly the "Garry Dean" method, however used ONR, instead of his product. Wow, I was impressed! It was so easy to do. I really liked the fact I could easily do it inside my garage & out of the sun...

    New Black car questions

    tiSS'er, Thanks for the detailed reply. That makes it more clear. I'm going to try the rinse-less Gary Dean Method. I've watched his latest videos and he pre-treats the panel by spraying it with a solution of his USDJ. Do you recommend pre-treating as well? Can you do this with ONR diluted...

    Thanks for the tip on watching junkman. Wow, he has a lot of videos. Been watching a few of them. Looks like I need to order a few new things from AG. I think I will go to the 2 bucket method for washing. Also I like the idea of drying with a leaf blower. Dale - AZ

    Questions on GG6 purchase

    Thanks everyone. I'm going to give it a shot. I will try putting the 845 with the machine instead of by hand. I assume the blue pads will work ok for that. Thanks again, Dale

    What's the next step?

    Your welcome to stop by and see it. I didn't get it all finished with the wax yet, but I will work on it more tomorrow. I would say I did notice a difference with the #7 compared to last time. It wasn't huge, but I would say better. Pm me and I can give you my phone number if you want...
