Re: Toronto Meet

Couldn't make it out as I was extremely ill. Looks like it was a good meet.

Re: Toronto Meet

Updates on the durability test:

Week 1:

First is Bryan's homemade wax:
toronto-meet-img00108.jpg

The car was attacked on one night with bird poop on certain sections. So it seems to have survived the night. Some pretty tough wax.

I used a waterless solution and microfiber towels to get rid of it as soon as possible and later in the day I went for a coin wash with just water and soap to avoid compromising the test.

Next up is Riccardo Wax V2:

Ok, just a picture from week 1.

I took this pictures from my cell phone after some rain during the first week.

Note: I washed the car at a coin wash with just water and soap.

Updates on the durability test:

Hope you enjoy it.

Week 2:

First is Bryan's homemade wax:
toronto-meet-img00093.jpg
toronto-meet-img00090.jpg

consisted of rain so no need to wash.

Next is Riccardo Wax V2:

toronto-meet-img00092.jpg

All look pretty good still.
I'll try to grab more pictures and including how much dust it could attract. However during the first two weeks, I did not see much dust attracted to it.
Will keep capturing some pictures. Let me know if there are any specific shots needed.

P.S. I hope to figure out how to just embed the pictures instead of using attachments but at least the whole picture can be seen.
