Ls1transam Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Looks a heck of a lot better. You'll get better with every set. Depending on how bad they are, determines what grit I start out with. Chadley 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Slow Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I cleaned my summer wheels/tires with Adam's Deep Wheel Cleaner and Tire & Rubber Cleaner. They've been coated with a competitors wheel and tire coatings. Unfortunately my left hand nitrile glove tore while cleaning tire #3, so now my hand stinks of wheel Cleaner. P. U. I'm making the switch back to summers by the weekend. I want to save the winter tires for cold weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Slow Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 (edited) I Rinseless Washed the SS. Adam's Detail Spray was used as a drying aid on paint and wheels. Found some SVRT in the basement and rubbed some on the weatherstripping and tires. The wife's Beast gets some love tomorrow. It needs it! Plus she was gave me the evil eye while I was rubbing on the SS in the garage.

SYMAWD Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 First real wash/ mini detail in a year on my car. Just finished an 11-month BSN program (pretty much no free time). SumBeach35 and K81Chevy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crooz1n Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Worked on cleaning up the old 97 Grand cherokee. The clear has failed on top and hood and starting to fail in several other places. But for an old off road brush buster she still cleans up nice. A few hours with a claybar and some Porter cable time got my paint touching fixin. I still love driving it. And it's paid for.

8675309'SS Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Washed the hubb's car this evening. Had a chance to use the Tire & Rubber Cleaner for the fist time. Tires didn't look too bad to start, but they looked awesome after! I can't wait to see what it can do for the other car's tires. Hooray for spring! Top photos are before; bottoms are cleaned and dresssed with VRT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyswithJava Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Washed my baby and detailed the inside. I really need to some glass cleaner. But after I washed our 2008 Honda Odyssey. I camped in her over the weekend and just wanted to wash her up. I washed and then clay bared just the hood, wow! What a difference just washing with Adam's but then the hood is amazing too. I made my hubby go out and feel it when he got home from work. She then spent the weekend on the desert and I was still impressed how she looked after. I need more time to wash our vehicles!!!

SYMAWD Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Washed it in the hot sun. No problems letting the soap dry on the car, then rinse, spray down with DS and then dry. 8675309'SS and Captain Slow 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ls1transam Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 I must have hard water. The soap doesn't want to rinse off my car. I wipe it off as I dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chadley Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 So after a tough day at work yesterday it was time for a little shine therapy. I faced my worst detailing fear and cleaned my engine. It's not an excellent job - but as I say "it's good enough for the guys I date 8675309'SS, falcaineer and mc2hill 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
