What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

I'm glad you enjoyed using it! Absolute is not a game changer, but it is very pleasant to use.

Now, I just have to hold up the end of the bargain and try ECH20.............maybe tomorrow. :props:

Well as clean as your fleet always is the use of Ech2o as a RW, which is the only to use it IMO, will take your Gloss to the next level, you will surely see it without a doubt️

I add 2 oz to 3.5 gallons of water and I can't wait to hear your review of it.

As promised...................





ECH20 diluted at 200:1 in the bucket and pre-spray, then at 20:1 for the drying aid.

Enjoyed using it, smelt nice and left the paint slick and glossy. :dblthumb2:
 
Gave the Qashqai a wash today. Bright sun, so I was moving it in and out of the garage as I worked.

Foamed it with Reset first, very liquid solution, but I was working fast, then rinsed. Beading shot shows how clean it looks after foam wash.

Then Bowden's Wheely Clean on the wheels, and rinse.

Moved it inside and gave it a 2B wash with Reset, foaming it first removed just about all the dust and dirt, so the rinse bucket stayed really clean. Back outside to rinse.

Inside again to dry with TWHS Wet Wax.

Outside to take the finished shots.

You're a good son!
 
Had some time this morning to get the EN washed, it was a little messy Thursday evening and into Friday, so it needed a wash. I took my IK Foam Pro 12 with me which had a mix of various pre-washes, can't remember exactly and pre-treated. I ran it through and just drove it straight home. I did replenish the IK Foam Pro 12 with an ounce of DIY Detail Incredible Suds and .5 ounces of Bilt-Hamber AutoWash, should be an interesting result as BOTH are pretty damn concentrated

Does discovering you left your half full Ik sprayer in the back of your car since Saturday and it’s frozen solid count as detailing related?

It’s in the tub thawing out and my fingers are crossed it’s not ruined

Report back to the group, could be a testimony about build quality/tolerance

Well, it took the better part of the day to completely thaw out my IK Foam Pro 2+ after being frozen for 48 hours in temps down to 5 degrees

After it completely thawed I poured my Auto Wash solution back in the gallon jug and poured in a liter of water and a big squirt of Dawn to test it out

It appears to be no worse for the wear

It is holding pressure and foams up just fine

I bought another gallon of P and S Interior cleaner and 1/2 Gallon of Mr Pink soap off Marketplace.
 
I ended up ordering some stuff today - a 3" backing plate for the G9, some pads to go along with it, and (separately) McKees Hydro Graphene Ceramic coating. Been a while since I bought stuff, but spring is literally around the corner!

You're putting a 3" backing plate on the G9?
 
Time to finish the paint correction on this car. The hood is complete, but now it's time to clay bar the rest of the car and go to work.

Still Love your garage. Jealous of all the room for activities.

Thanks! It looks bigger in the pictures than it actually is, or at least it feels like it. Nothing like playing musical cars to get the one in the corner outside to drive .
