What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

Almost finished up a correction/paint enhancement on my GTI. Just have to finish the hatch and rear bumper. (I was interrupted.)

First time using 3D one and also first time using the Uro Fiber pads. Worked well. 3done has solid cut and finishes nicely. Very very little dusting. Wipes reasonably well too.

Urofiber pads work very well. My only real complaint is they're a bit difficult to clean between passes. They tend to get matted down.

I've seen a few on Fittementindustry.com that I like.
You still have your guy in Bolingbrook?

He's actually in Joliet now, they move these guys around quite a bit. His name is Brandon and he's THE store manager there and he's a car guy. Been following him around 11+ yrs now, time flies by.

Care to throw out the styles your looking at?

The 2nd wheel would tie into your bright work since it has a machined face, nice style and easy to clean for sure. I see the offset is +35, kinda of aggressive unless you've seen that offset on other Fusions and it works. Also, do you have a tire in mind? Using the stockers for winter duty

I like the second one best out of the two. The 35 offset wouldn't require spacers, as I like the look of the wheel flush with the fender.
I'm probably going with Dunlop DWS' again.

DWS is from Conti and yes, flush is best, it's what I like about my rims

Worked on my newish to me 2011 Civic the last couple days.

Washed with Uber Rinseless.

Compounded with Griot's complete compound and used a G9 with orange LC flat pads, but the DA was intermittently functional with 3 panels left until it finally gave out on me on me with 1 panel left to go....

Hand applied Klasse AIO and two coats of FK1000p.

Forgive the wheels. I didn't pay much attention to them because I'm going to be getting a new set soon anyway(whenever the quarantine ends and my company starts back up) and the hub caps look worse than the bare wheel IMO.

Finished up this beauty inside as the rain outside wasn't about to let up. Hope to get some decent pics on a nice spring day today.

2 Layers of some original Cquartz I had left and then single layer of Gliss v1 that I also had left. Customer took advantage of the fact that I wanted to use up some of my older inventory. Picture doesn't do it justice.

48k miles and 6 years old. Looks brand new outside a couple front end chips here and there. Wheels could use more than just the quick hand polish I gave them but it's a daily driver for his wife and he didn't want to go that far.

My Basic Polish and Protect with a good thorough interior cleaning with the Tornador Velocity Vac. Now the carpets are super clean and fresh. The power of the Tornador really pulls out any and all dust and dirt do dang well I can't imagine doing a dirty car without it.

Looks great!


Just to note, you're post ended up in the Moderator Queue due to the outside links to Imgr photo hosting. I think after 10 posts the software will stop doing this. The reason we have the vBulletin software set up like this is so if a SPAMMER gets onto the forum and in their first posts start including URL links, they too get placed into the Moderation Queue and that way no one sees their spam.

Kicked it old school today. Finished the correction and LSP of choice was Collinite 476. Never used it before but had a tin of it so I figured why the heck not.

Super easy to apply and remove. I had heard otherwise but it was a joy to apply other than the strong solvent smell.

Such a good wax! I will always have the collinite trio on hand(476,845,915), not only because they’re phenomenal and easy to work with, but because they last so long.

I tend to think the more solvent the smell the better they work! No proof on this of course..
