Here's the wall after yesterday's clinic/Open House. And @Devon527, here's one for you as mentioned above. You were right!!! ****** If you think you see one of yours, let me know and I'll look for it next time I go.

Welcome to the addiction, Greg!

Mean to post these. As of Monday, 19 Nov. I imagine it'll get a bit more crowded after the clinic tomorrow.

House party

I hope to make it. If I do, I'll let you know, Tim.

Welcome to the addiction, Ryan! So...how do you fit in there?! 😂

Welcome, Trenton!

Swing low

Welcome to the addiction, Gene!

You just wait and see... Good luck!

Welcome, AJ! Be sure to post an intro in the New Member forum. Adam has a couple videos on this very question. Take note of the process, products, etc. Lots of great advice and is a good model of what I like to do. And for the record, a pay and spray first at a local wash to get most crud off and a subsequent Rinseless Wash at home works great. Enjoy! I also just bought these to help with cold hands in the winter. Have yet to use them, but they look promising. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07D3678LX?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_pd_title

Good eye, @tlbullet. @Captain Slow has it right...I use that to store RW. Man, can't get anything by you guys! 🧐🤓

Welcome, Jason! It's one or the other, not both. Each needs a naked surface to bond to. I'd say go with the PS for now and reevaluate come spring. You'll get 6 months+ of awesome protection with sealant so you'll have some time. Use HGG every month or so to maintain in the meantime. And post some pics of what you're keeping shiny!

I also have both. I converted the PC to a "mini" with the 4" pads. I actually had the 6.5" pads for it originally and they don't work well on the SK. The 5.5" work MUCH better, so keep that in mind if you are attempting to use the pads for both. The PC has a 7mm throw compared to 15mm for the SK. You'll find jobs take much less time with the SK as a result. Not to mention a much smoother experience with less vibration.

You're killin me Smalls!

Nice work, Gordon! 😎

It doesn't need to cure, so you're fine. I apply over the whole car, then come right back and remove with no issues at all in end result.

Forgot to add that applying the single coat to all four tires barely put a dent into the amount in the bottle. More of a road chip, really 😆. Sure, mileage will vary with size of tires, etc. But safe to assume this 8oz bottle will last a while for the average user. Wish I had a before pic, but here's the after. *Bottle shaken to add bubbles and make seeing fluid level easier.

Applied Tire Armor today. Took about an hour all toll, from getting all the tools, etc. ready to cleanup. First things first since we usually love them...the smell will likely not be one of your favorites. Smells like household paint. But the application was pretty straightforward. Longest, "most difficult" part was cleaning the tires thoroughly, but that wasn't too bad. Took 3-4 passes with TRC to get completely white foam. I also cleaned the wheels and fenders so that added some of the time mentioned earlier. I only applied one coat, which left a satin/VRT-like finish. The directions said another coat could be applied after 10-15 minutes to give added gloss, which I assume is more Tire Shine-like. But this was my first try so wanted to see how one coat does for look and durability. They look pretty good (though I like them shinier), and the durability is TBD. I'll update this post over the next few weeks. But after driving once on a dirt road, no dust stuck to them. Some lessons learned: - I first tried a grey MF pad, but the results were lacking. Then I followed the directions on the bottle and switched to a grey foam tire block. MUCH better. - Directions say to use "4-5 sprays into tread block and covering the majority of the surface area." I think that's somewhat misleading. I needed quite a few more all around the tire to get even coverage. - Some got ontol the rims while I was spreading it. Not sure what effect it might have, but it's not really noticeable. Now for pictures... Before During...white foam = clean tires Dried, clean tires to work with After...
