    Slickest Traditional Bucket Wash and "Wax" Car Wash Soap

    If you are using a foam cannon or gun, the two-bucket method is virtually redundant. As for this type of soap, they are a compromise. However, every product is a compromise. Sticking with soaps, a pH neutral soap will be super gentle to preserve a wax, but then doesn't have good cleaning...

    You know how certain words resonate more than others? This is different for everyone, but sometimes a word will carry more weight or meaning than the simple arrangement of letters would suggest. Words can invoke positive emotions such as passion and happiness, excitement and laughter, and on the...

    What did you do today non-detailing related?

    A once-a-year job, a heavy winter prune of this ornamental grape vine, or Vitis Vinifera. This is a job of two halves, I really like pruning, but then I really dislike ladders. From this..................... To this.............................. And after pruning back to a main...

    Is PERL the best option to maintain plastic trim on a new vehicle

    Like any water-based dressing, Perl will only last until the next wash or rain. Considering you mentioned the trim already looks new, have a look at something like Carpro Reload. I've been using Reload on trim for years for the following reasons - 1. It's super easy to apply, you don't...

    Ceramic Coating – Yeah yeah, I know, but I'm sure you expected this would happen. :ROFLMAO: On a machine that will spend its life covered in oil and fuel, the coating is probably not going to last very long. But……………………it makes me happy, so I’m going with it. For something like this, you...

    He pops up on pretty much on every single TRC video, but according to Tas, he does the same elsewhere too.

    I hate that sort of sh.t, like get down off your high horse. We ALL contribute to the pollution of the planet, you'd have to be living naked in a cave for that not to happen, and even then you would be burning something to keep warm. And guess what, humans are pouring soap down the sink every...

    At this time of the year, the foam tends to sit in the gutter for up to 24-hours. I just hope I don't have a neighbour call the EPA on me.

    Well, I got carried away........................................... It’s hard to know exactly why I love chainsaws so much. The sound? The smell? The look? The teetering on the edge of danger? All of the above? But since I was 12 or 13, I've been obsessed with these noisy, dangerous...

    I always forget how much extra work it is to maintain a car in winter. Wet or damp roads, and the road film and mud the comes from that, well it generally takes more time and more chemical aggression to deal with. In the Wildtrak's case, transporting a dog with wet and muddy paws every day, off...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    The key thing with ADS is that there isn't a dud in the range, however there are a few that don't reach the same heights as their signature products. Does that mean those products are bad? Not at all, rather it's a reflection on how high they set the bar. The Brilliant - Amplify, Adapt...

    Pan the Organizer product line...let's discuss@

    I've been running undiluted Brake Buster through an MTM for several years now. I fully expected to be replacing internal components along the way as Brake Buster is incredibly harsh on sprayers. To this day, I have not had to do a single thing to that MTM foam cannon, actually the same applies...
