    Wet sand it or bail???

    I was also thinking it looked like clearcoat issues. Maybe wet sand a test spot, but get some 1500 to bridge the 800 to 3000 gap

    Big Life Changes

    We have had a horse for the last 6 years either leasing or owning. My daughter rode equestrian for high school and when she graduated we bought her a 2 year old paint out of Vermont. I understand all to well about the dirty vehicle and the smell.

    What's everyone's thoughts on the Covid-19 situation?

    Nailed it. Greed will be downfall. Look at the wage gap in this country since the early 70's.

    The Season of Discontent is upon us...

    I still do rinseless weekly in the winter. I take the vehicles to the spray bay to get the heavy salt off and then to the garage for rinseless. It definitely gets dirtier quicker with all the salt on the roads

    Anyone still use old school combos?

    I still use wax on my jeep. I like testing new products out on it and figured it would be a waste to coat or seal it.

    Best winter washing method

    I too live in Michigan, Go Blue. I do the spray bay to rinse the salt off as much as possible. Then put it in garage to warm up and do a rinse less wash with lots of microfibers. I am considering the Dewalt cordless pressure washer and just doing the rinse at the house where it is warmer

    buy new, used, or lease a car?

    Lease one and own one. I think soon we will own both as our yearly mileage dropped off with daughter getting her own vehicle and wife working from home full time. If Ford can get the kinks worked out in a few years i want to buy a Bronco when I turn my Jeep in.

    Ceramic noob here...need some advice

    I am kind of same boat as you. This isn't my job but I do 30 to 40 a year. The way I treat our cars is ceramic wife and kids while mine just a sealant or wax.

    My first venture into forced rotation

    I finally was able to put enough money away this year to get the cordless beast. It arrived today and I cant wait to get home and get into it. I am a weekend guy, maybe 30 to 40 vehicles and a few boats a year. I have been using G15 and G9 mainly with a Milwaukee cordless rotary when necessary...

    Those who experience snow.

    I prefer the weather colder that way the dirt road the kid takes to the horse barn stays frozen. When the thaw starts her ride will look like it was in a mud bog with a salt topper, i hate it.
