You know your hooked on detaling when......

[BillM]

you go to the dealer for an oil change and you start detailing the cars on the showroom floor :grinno:



I just couldn`t help myself, there was a left over 08 Corvette coupe and a 09 Cyber Gray Z06 covered in dust on the showroom floor. I asked if they minded me getting the dust off and knowing me and the way i take care of my vette they said GO FOR IT !!!



I grabbed my microfiber and Adam`s detail spray and put a nice little shine on those bad boys. Sorry but I didn`t have my camera with me, of course that will give me an excuse to go back in a few days :rofl

[eyezack87]

you point out every flaw to a body shop and products they use and they get confused on stuff you are talking about :rolleyes:



OR



you go to an autoshow and talk to the mobile detailers there who are sponsors and are the only 1 of 4 people to know each and every product they discuss with you :heelclick (best thing was that he is the Menz distributor for Orange County :spot)

every car on the road you decide what they need and when they need it on the spot lol

while watching TV you try to see how well the paint on the good guys car is looking.



When you see a badly hologramed car drive by on the road and your heart drops.

when you park your car 100 yards from the supermarket so it doesn`t get dinged while your shopping and you evaluate the paint on every car while you walking into the store

When you`re giving your wife/GF an intimate oil massage and all you can think about is how much it feels like a nice wax just gliding across a freshly polished surface... guilty here :). Victoria Concours actually came to mind then :D

[JohnHenry]

...when none of your relatives ever drops by for a visit without having their car at least washed, and one or more of these: QD`d, glass polished, headlights buffed, interior wiped down, as time permits. (As I have several 20-something women in my family now, some pregnant, some with little ones, my latest rant is TIRE PRESSURE!)

you wake up during the night and while half-asleep you begin to stroke your wife as is applying an LSP.

When you polish the dishwasher, washing machine, and wax the shower with 845.
