    Re: What did you do detailing wise today?

    Swanic : 3" pads on a PC is an awesome thing, mine is currently used just for that and I find myself doing a few more additional passes because of how nice it feels/operates.

    Fact: my tablet auto corrected "swanic" to "satanic" and I was about to press "post reply" ,glad I checked.

    This humble novice put his second coat of Jespar`s/Menzerna Sealant on his car. By hand, no less. Will wait and take a good picture of my after from the heavy swirling. Post in the detail brag section....novice...
    I did a half decent job of cleaning the inside. Except for vacuuming.
    I had a plastic tote in the trunk. Spray bottle of Xwax in there along with towels, brushes, duster. Found the bottle of Xwax leaked. The duster absorbed almost all of it. ... Doh! Won`t do that again. Duster is drying right now from rinsing.
    Found out yesterday. I do have a garage I can use to buff or wax. It`s an hour`s drive away. Belongs to the company I work for. Heated and all. So that`s good.

    Do you do your windshield with the bathe + ? Any grunge build up on it a few days after driving?

    I wash the windows too. As far as grunge - hard to say, Ron. After a few days of driving around Chicago, there`s all kind of grime on my car. I usually hit the windows with some DG #751 afterwards anyway.

    What I can say is that the wipers don`t skip/chatter. I noticed that when G1 was getting thin and a bit with HydrO2.

    The wipers didn`t chatter for me either. That`s a +.

    But there was a type of grungy film on the windshield after humidity or dew that wouldn`t come off till next wash.

    Car shows are detailing related right?

    It was a fun weekend. Bryan@AG and I rode down to Cars and Coffee Palm Beach to check out some VERY cool cars.

    Bryan`s pretty Ducati.

    Good to know. I haven`t used it before recently. Maybe as the weather improves in the region I`ll get some longevity out of a wash so I can see.

    I was disappointed in the suds, but the lubricity is quite good and it seems to definitely help the beading.

    It does add some gloss too, and doesn`t streak.

    I wish there were a "thumbs down" button. Sorry, tropicsteve; that stinks.
