    I used bfsrc on lc thin pro orange finished with bftps on b&s eurotech yellow with my gg6" and 5" bp. It was heavily marred up and oxidized but it looks amazing now except for the deeper scratches. It looks as if I spent hrs on the exterior when it only took bout 2-2.5 not including the wash time

    Re: What did you do detailing wise today?

    Livin` & Learnin`
    1st up : Wheels & a wash to prep for a 1step + Wax



    Next up : Fix the wheels, after 2 coats of BFTT&TS (whipped off the balcony)



    Much better, so I put Gyeon on all trim, takes a while
    to dry, hope it stays dark.

    Now the learnin` part : I wanted to start bringing my DD up to standards, so I tried a 1 step.
    I was going to use a Glaze w/sealant but at the last moment I picked BF TP&S with white pads.
    On a DD and didn`t check my work till I was 1/2 done !
    I should have switched to the glaze but kept going.
    The 1 step w/white pads did nothing for the swirls except made them stand out proud !
    I wanted to try Vic`s Red Wax, it did fill some and deepened the color.
    First time polishing this truck and needed to see how long it would take. (getting faster , not as tired)



    Plus : My first coating I put on the glass. After polishing with Pinnacle Glasswork, Mc37 Rocked !

    Job #1 completed today.

    BRZ wash/clay/iron remover then a layer of black hole and one layer of PA master sealant. Cars paint is hammered. Looks good for what he wanted. Couldn`t get any good picks with the lighting of before and after.

    On a side note. I`m always gonna take my machines to apply a sealant or glaze. My shoulder is on fire after working in the black hole.

    Re: What did you do detailing wise today?

    Normal peaceful Saturday morning wash/interior. Quick reapplication of Hydro Blue. (I LOVE THIS STUFF!!). Then went out later to do the hateful tasks that no one likes to do. At least on a Xterra. Retreated the roof plastics with Griots black shine trim restorer (Gel). I have found out this is really a top notch product. It has never failed on the Xterra`s plastics and trim. And the dreaded wiper cowl. Did this with Mothers back to black aerosol trim restorer. Aerosol makes it so much easier for this application. Wiped the overspray off. Done. Rest of the weekend is decompress and MILLER TIME!!

    Does cleaning my gutters count as detailing, rather be working on car. Made this up to go on leaf blower, made it much easier to clean gutters and quicker.

    That is a deep shine on the tires. I have been using the Gyeon tire for my tires. Let us know how the PRESERVE holds up. Any sling etc...
