8. I've noticed I do this ALL the time. I'm always commenting on how good/bad people's cars on the road are.

Not sure what number this is up to but i want to add one !

When sitting on the toilet, I notice that the toilet seat has swirls. And other places around the house like kitchen table and benches. In my head i'm thinking it could do with some SSR2.5.

GEE! THANKS.........I thought it was just me......:righton:
 
I get disgusted when i see an expensive car with black brake dust stained wheels on the front. I just shake my head.
 
Black or any car for me...........totally sickens me, as well as dirty glass......

German cars need to have a sealant on wheels - DP wheel glaze works the best...I use it on my girlfriend's BMW; it still dusts, but dust doesnt' stick so bad...
When you are wasing your car, remove brake dust using car wash shampoo solution(using any type of wheel cleaner will remove wheel sealant), and OXO brush...
Give it a try!!!:)
 
ive thought about sealing my shower, ive waxed the bottom of surf and skim board before. i polished my bass guitar when i bought it

the worst cars i see are the cars i want to do the most, just to see the look on their face. its to the point where i want to do it for free just becqause some need it so terribly bad. interiors are usually the worst but i want to clay many cars too... people are too cheap:mad:
 
This winter I was trying to figure out how to polish and wax my wife's finger nails. Also used WG spray sealant on the bathroom mirror.

I keep my wheels spotless!! Thank you, i detailed my #71 (18X8 fr & 18X8.5 rr) last week. Even my winter wheel and tire set are kept spotless.

I'm a geek because i'm bothered by lazy people with brake dust stained wheels.

LAZY auto car wash only for most people, and the car, in many cases is lucky to even get that!!
 
If only they knew that those gas station car washes aren't that great for your car.

I think most of them are ... "don't know- don't care" They would also consider spending anything more than 12 bucks for a "detail" a waste of money.
 
Yeah, what should we do with those kinds of people? But if we look on the bright side, if everyone was into detailing, our cars wouldn't look extra special, and some of us wouldn't be able to pay the bills.
 
I really like 13 & 14 but I fit the profile on the majority of the others. Maybe one day my wife will understand shes got plenty of time only coming up on our first aniversary.
 
well i work at a full service car wash so i see the lazy people every day. but we have a big shop for detailing too, and some of our washes are pretty expensive. inside and out with all the spray waxes and stuff is 20 bucks, but its a pretty good job. you can tell which cars were last waxed when they bought it.
