Maintenance Wash..

Wheels

Similar to the other diablo wheel cleaner, they're both good, no complaints and safe.

This is a terrible product lol, doesn't last, slings, I even think it can damage your trim, stay away from chemical guys weather-tek silk shine spray dressing, was very happy to repurpose it to my dawn bottle 1:4

not the best shots buts the beading of jetseal and petes is great as well as bfwdps on the windows

Minishoot

If my car was black.. or dsg

petes is still going strong as well as my bfwdps, which I only let cure for maybe.. 30 minutes :xyxthumbs
yeah torched I didn't see you either? should coordinate next year so we can explain swirls to the other participants and then point to our cars and theirs, I saw a ton of swirled out rides lol

 

[T0RCH3D]

Awesome shots man! Your car makes me love sonic blue mustangs and that's saying something cause I hate blue. And yeah I did as well, it actually mind boggled me how much money, time, and effort those guys put into their cars yet couldn't detail the car or have someone take car of that for them. That third to last picture is awesome, what do you use to edit? That gloss embossed look is sweet.

That's some crazy beading my friend.rops:

 

[willtothewong]

I did not know you could put Jetseal ON TOP of Blacklight.

That makes sense since Blacklight does fine abrasives...

 

[T0RCH3D]

You need to take pics of my car like that, your editing and camera work is awesome.

Awesome work, man. Nice thread.

How many passes did you make with the m105? Did you use a PC or a rotary?

Thanks
I honestly can't recall, just worked the product and periodically checked to make sure I was getting great correction, one complete slow pass around the entire car
I use a griots garage with 5" backing plate / hydro tech pads

Thanks! Yeah I'm with you on that I'm itching to detail lol
Thankfully have a client coming over today

You are using way too much product to prime the pad.

Very cool Sonic. I had to go back and see the date you posted that. I've always been a fan of your car and now its cool to get the back story! Great work.

As always, great work. I just have to ask. How is it that your car needed 40 hrs. of work? Every time I see your post, your car always looks flawless.
