    Wash Bucket Setup

    Make sure you buy them from Obsessed Garage so you can pay too much

    Wash Bucket Setup

    Nope....do not care what my buckets look like. I'd used the same ones from Lowes for many years...bought 'wash' and 'rinse' stickers.....then stopped using the two bucket method. Recently, was offered some buckets for free...that had been used by a local florist shop for an elaborate...

    The Tire Cleaning Comparison Thread

    I tried the TW product....smell did not bother me, and it did a very good job on tires. A while ago, I decided to simplify things and cut down on specialty products. My tire and wheel cleaner of choice is Bilt Hamber Surfex HD, mixed at 10:1 in an IK foamer. So far, it has not met a tire it...

    Wax or sealant you can apply to the entire car before removing???

    Ultra Lock Plus also gives outstanding gloss and slickness....you will not be disappointed.

    Can a drying towel be too large

    I think there is a point of diminishing returns. I have two of the original PFMs and 6 or 8 of the 16x16 (got them at a great price at Pep Boys). The large ones are nice for my tundra and the wife's Yukon, but only really for the roof and hood. They are more than large enough for those...

    Are you a detailing purger or a hoarder

    I'm both....but a hoarder to a much lesser degree than I used to be. It does, however, take a while for me to purge items. I'm getting ready to do so, though. I have way too many AIOs on the shelf.

    1st decon wash in almost a year!

    Believe it or not...that's not far from the truth. A friend almost had them coat his Corvette because they told him it would prevent rock chips

    TWHS SLICK & SLIDE Soap.

    Still too expensive....30.95 U.S. on that site + shipping....even without a sale...I can get it for 20.00 from Turtle Wax directly.....Don't need it that bad

    TWHS SLICK & SLIDE Soap.

    no one in the U.S. does....tried ordering some yesterday off of TW website...especially since they are having a 20% off sale....no dice

    1st decon wash in almost a year!

    Well said. Sadly, people think a ceramic coating makes their car impervious to harm. There's a detail shop local to me that basically makes it sound like that in their FB ads.

    Some products attact bugs?

    Every time I used P&S BeadMaker, it attracted bugs. It was so slick they could not land in the vehicle, however.

    First go - ceramic coating, experienced detailer

    I highly recommend Gyeon MOHS EVO. Very simple to install,,,,excellent gloss and slickness. Brian from FAB Automotive detailing does a great video review of it, and Status Detailing does a couple of reviews of it as well.

    Tire shine

    One dressing to consider is Griots Garage Black Satin aerosol. I'd never been a fan of aerosols, but this one is fairly controllable. It lists itself as a coating, which it isn't. It falls somewhere between a dressing and a coating...looking fairly fresh for 2-3 weeks...beads water for about...

    Our First New Car - My Journey

    MOHS EVO is pretty forgiving and user friendly....but I still managed a high spot that took me several days, and just the right angle, to notice it. There was a part of me that was all set to polish it and re-coat, except for the fact that I ran out of it just as I was finishing the...
