I detailed this vette on 3.22.05 - wash clay pwc PW

The husband didn't know I was coming to the house and had the car washed. The paint still feels very slick.

I didn't have time to pull it out

I like the hood shot on the Jag.

That unit on the wall in the garage with the Vette is sweet! Perfect for year round detailing.

Did you use full strength Castrol APC on the wheels? I'm a big fan of that stuff.

Thanks!

In march they wanted to turn it on for me, but the weather was warm enough so I declined.

Almost full strength. I like it too but I think it gets my hands pretty dry. Last time I went to wal mart I was getting a gallon but the cashier couldn't ring it up. It is supposed to be on recall. I did convince her to sell me 3 gallons of it though. ( the manager helped her to "force" the sale in.)

She didn't know the reason but she was pretty sure about it.

Maybe we need to go to their site to see?

The Jag looks beautiful, Dude

The more I use the HY Temp wax, the less
I miss #16.

I was over the border a couple weeks ago in Niagara Falls NY. I looked for the gallon jugs of Castrol Super Clean at Walmart. They didn't have any Castrol at all in any size. I asked the guy stocking the shelves about it and he said it was pulled from NY. Something about it being too strong and a health hazard. Maybe a VOC thing?

well dang I am glad I bought a bunch. I did a google and found that an aerosol version of it had been recalled due to the cans having potential to leak. However when i went to castrol's site, i did a search for "super clean" and the links were broken
