you can see light hazing on that white ? I guess after wiping it wet ? I'm surprised Optimum caused light hazing ? Yikes ! and got superceded by Clearkote.. Hmmmm?

I couldn't see through my viewfinder, the sun was shining directly to my right.

BTW, this would be showing off my guns....



tumbler-I had pretty good sun when I started. The hazing wasn't bad, Hyper Compound did the same on my 626's paint but not on BMW paint. I guess it depends on how hard it is. Clearkote Compound seems to be haze free when used with a polishing pad.

Andrew-I used Armor All on all the tires in the pictures. I apply it with a Carrand (spelling?) foam tire swipe. Nice little product-unlike the Eagle Tire Swipes, these have a plastic handle so your hands don't get filthy. Plus the foam is more durable.

Yeah, leftover mess from my kids being here for Christmas. My older boy takes almost as long as a woman to get ready so my younger boy used my bathroom.

Yeah, a bit. BTW, no 'y' on the end of my name, Stevie.

I did detail my computer desk the other day though.
