    How would you Dry at a car wash / as an apartment dweller?

    This is what I was going to recommend. I still use my EGO for wheels and grills but it’s a bit loud in my garage. As you said, there’s a lot less water doing a rinse less and this seems more than enough to get the job done.

    If you’ve got CSL as your base coat I’d do EXOv5 as a top coat. That’s a deadly combo and it’s what’s on my wife’s SUV. Two years old and still beading water like day one.

    Never heard of the guy.

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Returned from sunny Puerto Rico to this brand new G70. The owner only wanted the hood and windshield coated which seemed rather odd to just leave the rest of the car alone. After a brief convo he did decide to at least coat the rest of the car with CanCoat so now we have a hood coated in...

    Not he first. Dad stepped in a few times but now she’s on her own.

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Squeezed in one job before heading to Puerto Rico. Coated this with Gyeon SYNCRO a year ago but about a week after the coating the driver was in a little collision. Finally got around to recoating the damaged portions. This was a sweet sixteen present and by looking at the wheels you can guess...

    Is this a BDSM house for birds?

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I like C2v3 a lot. I've had good success with it and it's not nearly as streaky as other ceramic sealants.

    what's the last car care/detailing video you've just watched?

    This is why I avoid EC Details. No grown man has any business posing for a picture like this on a Utoob thumbnail. I can’t take people like this seriously.

    You need to move if it’s that hot but I agree with your sentiment. I used a GTechniq coating yesterday in 90+ temps with ridiculous humidity and the wipe off was butter smooth. I think the OP may have waited too long to level but it’s a learning lesson. Every coating has it’s own nuances that...

    Detailing lesson to be learned here?

    I’m done doing nice things for family members because they just don’t value the work you put in. My brother in law has a child with cerebral palsy so I coated his minivan to make it easier to maintain. 6 months after doing the coating I visited him and he hadn’t washed the van once and it’s not...

    Sheepstar talks about this in his Wolfstar video. He mentioned how Utoobers suddenly get an unexplainable boost in subscriber accounts that can only be attributed to bots.

    Best glass cleaner for interior windshield?

    I use Bilt Hamber Traceless with an Autofiber double flip glass towel. I use the waffle side to clean and the plush side to buff away any residue.

    what's the last car care/detailing video you've just watched?

    I can't speak on Eddie and ADS in the early days because I actively avoid his content. He always seems out of breath in the few vids I have seen. He didn't go into why ADS wants to distance themselves but I can only speculate that the current drama (shipping inefficiency, Utoob grifters, etc.)...

    what's the last car care/detailing video you've just watched?

    Eddie was just going over how THOR came to be and how he met some guy and the two of them financed it. He is basically trying to say that they are a legit detailing company and not just a bunch of Utoob detailers hyping each other’s products with a perpetual circle jerk. He also mentioned that...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    It’s pretty safe from what I could see. No odor. Used my Multi Pro 12 and it was a simple spray on and rinse off process. I’ll be ordering two more bottles to finish off the driveway and have the best looking driveway/sidewalk in the neighborhood.

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    This is what I used. Doesn’t change colors and make for cool photo ops but if it is safe on automotive paint it would save us all a hell of a lot of money. https://a.co/d/fH6f34A

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    After a few years of removing iron from cars my driveway is less than pristine. Took some time to do some concrete iron removal. Both sides of the driveway have been pressure washed thoroughly but it’s obvious which side was treated with the iron remover. Color me impressed. Now I’m wondering if...

    I hate that it didn’t work out. CSL + EXO is a damn good combination.

    CSL is an instant wipe off. You can wait a couple of minutes and up to 5 if the weather is cool but there is no wait time for leveling.
