I actually will.stand up for Todd. I have no affiliation with Esoteric. I was in Dayton 2 summers ago and decided to take a trip over to their shop, it was a 45 minute drive away, why not. Drove up no appointment, walked up and walked right into Todd, was treated like a long time friend. Super...
Todd at Esoteric said the same in a video a couple years ago. Just leave it and wash it later. I think he said something to the effect of he would rather own a dusty/dirty car with paint in great shape than a really clean car with paint that has swirls and/or scratches.
I will also add, just an option, Detail Guardz has a great pad cleaner they sell as well. I got some bottles when I bought their Pad cleaner system. It works fantastic! Now I cannot compare it to Poorboys, or any other brands, as I have only used DG's.
Go to a commercial electrical store, where electricians get their supplies. They usually have WAY way better lighting fixtures. I got some from one, incredible lights! And the price wasn't that much more, but these lights will last forever.
It's pretty sweet. Ford dropped details on their Ranger Raptor, 400hp. I would love to see SVE get a version out there of the ZR2 with that Caddy ATS-V ttv6 in it, 464hp. That would make that Bison into a terror.
Great to see you on here again!!!
I still do think being on multiple forums is a good thing. And this is an example, if something happens on a forum at least people can still stay in touch on other forums. This, Autopia, MP site, etc.
Being on a few detail forums, Chilly joined Mike P's site and got to say hi! He has had trouble getting on here, and he was a regular member on most days.
I thought I'dd post what he said, see if mods can get him back on.
From Chill's post :
I am always glad to see perspectives from other...
Aren't there some polishes that leave a bit of a layer of protection??? I think products like Autosol even claim a layer of protection.
Polish Angel has their polish, Palladium, but also they have Supersport for rims.
I have a few of the mitts, sponges, blocks, pads. They are all tacky. Even after I broke them in on windshields and used them a few times. They are always a bit tacky.
