Hi Chris, CS3 quickly became one of my regular items to use and always goes in my travel bag with as versatile as it is. While I prefer the smell of the regular waterless wash, it is no match for capabilities of CS3. One of these days we need to meet up at my daughters restaurant for lunch, it is near the southern gate of Fort Jackson, so it is a straight run across 378 from Sumter, less than 45 minutes from the main gate at Shaw. It takes me about 30 minutes to get to her place and lunch would be on me.

The son-in-law had to be at Sumter AFB for the weekend, so the Mazda was left at my house and got some much needed attention. It also pointed out that I need todo some some light research on what I installed in m garage. I have 5000k LED's in the garage and it is pretty obvious that the difference between their light and nature light is substantial.

Hi Ron, The Air cannon is great when you have a garage or are always doing the drying in the same location. If you are doing detailing in different locations or mobile detailing, then EGO blower would be advantageous. Of course, if you are doing a mix, then both would be ideal.

Hi Jack, Based on the description and weather, it sounds like you should be fine. On the light colored vehicles, I try to get them in good light and look them over for any high spots or misses and then do it again in the shade. It can be hard to see the differences in on light setting, but if you cannot see a difference in either light setting, then you not have have any misses or high spots.

My various vehicles have very different ranges. The garage queen that only goes out on nice days, regularly gets dusted off with Graphene Detail Spray, CS3 or Ceramic Waterless Wash has been almost 18 months and still looks perfect. The garaged vehicle that goes out about once a week and does some trips is around 10 months and still looking good, but not nearly as good as the pure garage queen. The daily driver that sits outside 24/7, gets driven in nasty weather and gets washed constantly, is approaching 6 months and will need to be redone soon.

This is an older picture, yet one of the clearest on the challenges of getting the area within and around the vehicle badges cleaned and polished. For all the years that I've been dealing with badges, I'm hoping there is some input to improve or make life easier on doing them. This is example of a Jaguar that I did in in May of 2020 and in particular getting inside of the A's, R and to a lessor extent the G. I use the a fine tip polisher on a battery operated rotary tool on a low speed to get around the letters. It works, it just takes forever to do and finding the right polish pads is also a bit of a challenge. While I have both a 15 mm and 12 mm Swirl Killer and they work great for getting the surface and I've considered a Swirl Killer Micro, I don't believe the Micro will get inside the letters, which is why I'm asking others what they do. I did search the site and nothing came up that really gave any good insight, so if you know of an article, please link them. Any video's would also be appreciated. Let me know your techniques, removing the badges is a top recommendation, but way too many people want to make sure their Jag, Range Rover, yada, yada, yada is labeled for the prestige of look at what I'm driving.

Hi Saular, I would recommend trying a different pad. Something smaller than a grain of sand can leave a mark like you are showing in the picture and finding it can be a real challenge. Once the pad has been thoroughly wash and left dry it is generally easier to find something embedded vs when it is still wet or damp. Sometimes you won't find anything at all because it comes out with a thorough wash or just falls off when dry.

Hi Ra, The Graphene Ceramic can be used on PPF and it does have the potential to add some gloss. The recommendation is to do a test area or if you have a small piece that was not put on the vehicle test the difference on that piece. The last matte that did looked good and did not add much gloss, but it also on a light colored vehicle.

I prefer the garden hose using the Eley Adjustable Fan Nozzle that works great with a 5/8 hose and 60 PSI. Second choice is the pressure washer.

Hi Keith, welcome to the Forum.

Based of people on this forum and no direct answer, I'll have to recommend asking the manufacturer.

Protection worn

With the 6.5 for the SUV's, I'd have to recommend the 12mm to get to all the spots that the 6.5 can't.

It comes down to what type of vehicle are you normally using it on. Large flat panels, mid to full size pickups as an example, the 15mm Small vehicles with lots of odd shaped panels, the 12mm
