    I was going to wash the van, but I decided to wash my wife`s Escape`s wheels. Then I washed the pressure washer (Generac 3100PSI/2.7GPM), the housekeeper`s car, and our driveway.

    I bought some Plastidip at Home Depot this morning to put on the tip of my Speed Master wheel brush. The protective black cap came off the tip and I can`t find it. I don`t know if Plastidip is the solution, but I hope it`ll work.

    Mine did the same thing. I wrapped the tip with Gorilla duct tape. So far it`s held up for 2 years.

    What did you do detailing wise today?

    It`s really sad, but I polished my washer. For some reason I was compelled to break out my old PC 7424 (non-XP). Haven`t used it in years.

    I started to use it and it smelled like iron burning off the armature. Just rust from it sitting so long. The smell went away and the machine surprisingly worked really well.



    Actually, was very impressed with how powerful it was with 3" pads. A lot more stable and nicer to use with 3" pads compared to a GG6. The pad just flew. Seemed like it was meant for a 3" pad (GG6 does not). I noticed cord was a nice rubber too.



    It used Optimum GPS and a LC 3" polishing pad:





    Some defects before:



    After:



    Topped it with OCW:



    Beauty shot:



    Will be using the PC (instead of GG6) as my 3" polisher from now on.

    Hmm... Did you decontaminate and clay your washer first? It`s a vital step....
