    What did you do detailing wise today?

    Just figured out that n-914 at waterless wash ratio makes a great interior cleaner when it comes to nicotine tar lol. Not just a window cleaner a spot cleaner anymore

    Polished hood and rear bumper cover on our Accord after the red nanoskin sponge was FAR too aggressive to remove some contamination doh!

    On a side note I liked the Gyeon polish. Probably could have used the Gyeon compound first for a few RIDS that I can see in certain angled lighting, but the Gyeon polish on a green pad on this soft Honda paint worked well as a one step.

    One nice thing about them is the size availability you aren’t stuck with 32 oz of polish or compound you will never use up

    Weather and roads were clear enough to take the Camaro out for a drive on Saturday, got a little road grime on it. So Sunday it was 45 and raining and I washed it and put it back in storage nice and clean. Also washed the wife`s jeep for the first time in 2 months and Washed it with Super Slick Suds (said with a Sylvester the Cat lisp) then hit it with some Hydrofoam after for protection.

    Cold with light snow but managed to get the van cleaned up reasonably. Hit with OCW as I only can remember a few panels of what LSP they are wearing. Didn’t seem like anything was on the drivers side anymore. And of course the front fenders had heavy contamination on them. Will deal with that in spring. Got to be something that can help keep contamination away

    I agree that it is a nice polish. Finished out good on my brothers harley which has soft paint using a Rupes yellow pad.

    Been off the forum for a while. Lots of things going on.

    Got a shop to keep my car and detail out of which has been nice. Have have work every weekend since I got it. Now just have to set it up. Still looking for stuff too much.

    Just finished up a 2 step correction today on a 2015 Tundra. LSP was PA MS and topped with Gold Zirkon ( thanks Brandt).

    looks really good. Only one thing bothers me. I hate dealerships stickers. If one is on a car I`m buying. After I hammered out the deal, and before I sign. I tell them to remove their sticker
    or I don`t want the car. This ticks some off, but hey it`s my car. I think it detracts from the car. I`m not picking on your car, just the eye gets drawn from your baby to
    that sticker. Obviously you take great pride in her.

    They aren`t paying you a monthly fee to advertise for them, so why do it? That`s my logic anyway.

    Once the permanent plates come in, it`s off with the plastic dealership plate holders, etc.

    If it was my ride a whole lot more than the dealership sticker would be taken off but it’s a clients ride

    Towards the end of negotiations. I state that "I charge $100 a month to advertise for their dealership". I get some funny looks. I then state "we need to rewrite the contract to deduct my advertising fee". More funny looks. "Ok, or you can take that ugly sticker of the vehicle". Works every time!

    I learned this from the best. My father!
