I decided to try out some new toys and I can't wait for them to arrive.

I purchased the Wheel Woolies Sm, Med, Large. Basically Daytona detail brush but with a more rigid handle and wool innstead of bristles. Say them on a Paul Dalton U-Tube Video and figured maybe my car would look like his if i bought them? I will let you know.

The 303 Protectant was on super sale and I needed a few bucks for free shipping so I added it to save 15% and get free shipping. I was just about out of Megs Interior Detailer that I have been useing on the dash. The one bottle lasted like a year or more.

I also bought a foam cannon for my karcher PW. My wife and neighbors are going to flip when they see this bad boy. They alsready think I am nuts.

New Wet Vac-There was alot of rain last week and I sold my wet vac after it got killed in service. I had it for a few years and a buddy of mine had a friend with a flood. He asked if I could loan it to him. I did and it ended up being a seriously huge, dirty mess. Water was comming up from the ground! The guy called the thank me a day later and in the same breath he said, I wrecked this thing, what do I owe you? I said how did you wreck it, it's plastic? He removed the float so he could pick up more H2o and fried the motor. What he paid me covered the new one that is already on the way! 2000 watt, 2 x 1.25 HP (dual motor) Minuteman 15 gallon Tank (12 gal Liquid recovery) 190 cfm, 85" of Water Lift. with a contractor tool kit. This baby sucks!

I have been contemplating a Rotary machine only because I want a totally swirl free paint job. I I burn the paint my plan it to polish all the paint off and make it a Delorian looking infiniti? If I cannot get this Black to a mirror finish , I will ot get another black car. It simply frustrates me too much. My wife's white car and my Silver truck are perfect (to me) and my black car that I spend do much time messing with looks OK.

Like a little boy, I run ghome looking for UPS boxes. I will keep you posted.
 
I'd like to be receiving those boxes too. I'd like to know about those wool brushes. Please let us know how you like them after you use them. I have a box on it's way too but my toys are just new products but I still like trying out new stuff!!!

You got it dave. My old wheel brushes got worn out except for the Daytona which is still in service. The handle is a little more flexible that I would like. I bough it when it first came out and I should just buy a new one because it really is great. I just want to see of the wheel woolies replace its use first.

I hope you had a great birthday and I hope you enjoy your products.

Those wheel wool things are not cheap, any idea on the life span of them?

I have the Daytona brush and although the handle is a tad weak IMO its one of the best brushes I've used on rims in years

Todd Helme said they last a long time but would like to hear other reports as well.

I can see that they would be good for somethings, but where there is a lot of grease or heavy brake dust I can't see wool being that effective, at least that's been my experience.
 
I am not sure of the life span as I have not used them but I was told that one detailer that does this for a living had over 50 washes under his belt and they look new. While not cheap i cannot get the barrels of my wheels as clean as I would like with the daytona brush. I will not use any brush with exposed wire and so I bust my knuckles to get in their.

My Daytona has served me well. my handle is also getting more pliable that I like but if it broke, I would buy another immediatly and a mini too.

I will keep you posted on the durability of the woolies.
