    Re: What did you do detailing wise today?

    I cleaned my headlamp covers. The detailing came by way of me taking it apart so I could get to the inside. Moisture gets inside so it was a little blurry.

    Re: What did you do detailing wise today?

    Washed with Meg`s Hyper Wash on Friday and took XxBoostinxX`s advice and applied Sonus Motor Koat to the front grills (sprayed on left to dry wiped off any excess). I really enjoyed watching the water bounce off the WG Uber coating like a loonie tunes cartoon. I followed up with a small urban photo shoot Saturday and watched it rain all Sunday.

    I noticed that the beeding was terrible on Sunday but after a quick drive in the rain doing about 90mph the coating self cleaned it self of the tree sap or what not that inhibits the beading.

    Here`s one photo from the Saturday shoot:


    Great tip thank you so much XxBoostinxX!

    Washed my DD yesterday via a pressure wash; followed by Pinnacle waterless in a 2 gallon weed chemical sprayer (my new favorite way to use waterless wash).

    Not bad for 16 year old original factory Nissan paint.

    How much do you usually mix at once in the 2 gallon sprayer? Fill it up? I imagine each use with the sprayer doesn`t use much product.

    Just make a gallon at a time and keep it in there. It`s actually a 1 gallon sprayer. Best $15 you can spend.

    Thanks. I`m still debating whether to remove the Jeep emblem or not.

    I haven`t tried any RW yet but I did try Meg`s D114 as a QD / drying aid and it worked ok (nothing spectacular). I also use UWW+ daily to wipe off bird bombs at WW ratio. The coating seems to look great after (lots of shine and flake pop).

    If the weather turns out ok this afternoon I`ll try a RW with WG Uber (I assume it`s compatible) before I go racing. I`m doing 1/8th mile on race gas tonight I hope to kill a few exotics tonight. I usually cut a 7.8-7.9 without race gas.

    The coating is not liking life under the giant tree`s. The organic contaminants seem to adhere to the coating and it takes a fairly aggressive wash to get it back to normal that`s why I resorted to D114 for a final wipe down.

    Blackfire WW on the Taurus, and the Fatboy. Also BF AIO tire, BF MS spray wax, and mothers all chrome on the Fatboy.



    P.S. I know about dressing bike tires. I do the side walls, making sure none gets on the tread area. The side walls never touch the pavement and I wipe till it`s dry.

    Re: What did you do detailing wise today?

    I washed the wife`s New to her Jeep Wrangler with foam cannon with 3D Pink (2015 with 3000 miles on it bought 2 weeks ago). Then I used Iron X`d the whole car, then I rewashed the car with HydroFoam in soap cannon. I used Hydrofoam mixed with 3D pink last time and was not impressed, this time was 180 degree difference I was blown away how well it worked and how much it was beading and how slick it felt when drying after. I dont know if it did not like being mixed or if it needs better prep last time was just maintenance wash this time i deconed with IronX?????? don`t know but wow was it easy and worked great. Sorry for no pics I just was to wiped out after 10 hour work day I just wanted to power through it.

    From many many many years ago. Someone wanted "Jet ^ Black tires" And dressed the whole tire. Needless to say it didn`t end well.
