8675309'SS Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 While my dad and husband were playing with electronics today, my mother in law wanted to wash her car. We worked together to give it a good detail. Started the wheels with wheel cleaner and tires with tire and rubber cleaner. Then had to wait for a shower to blow through. Finished wheels, then tested out the foam gun. Used strip wash, and two bucket. Next clayed, sealed (non Adam's), and finished with Americana. A little metal polish by hand on her exhaust tips. She's super happy with how it turned out. And I promised I would post a picture to the forum. I have to giver her major props on her washing technique. There is not one swirl on that car!

AudiOx Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 What did I wash, shine or polish today? Not a darn thing! Since getting my mini-SK and foam cannon, it's rained for about 2 weeks straight down here in Atlanta. It's driving me nuts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc2hill Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 My truck, finally! Mixed up another gallon of pre-mixed Wash Shampoo at foam dilution 'Always ready' foaming solution, and foamed it down. I scrubbed the tonneau cover, then washed it with Wash & Wax. Oh, and cleaned the wheels & tires first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hupp2it Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 This was 2 weekends ago, but I've been traveling and busy and whatever. But this was a lot of fun. My friend asked me to detail her racecar because she was asked to bring it to Alamo Drafthouse in Austin for a special showing of Cars 3. She's a beast on the track and the car showed it. We spent about 6 hours on it, doing a strip wash, full paint correction from clay up, LPS, glaze and finally I busted the Patriot wax out of the fridge. Looked great when we were done! The kids loved it (and several little girls asked her how a girl can be a racecar driver, which she LOVED answering). Here are the pics without which this post is worthless!

ocdrifter Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 (edited) Car looks great and Adams sign is also looking good...maybe that Sign could use a night light sign LOL? I'll describe it, it shines red and black with some white, has LED bulbs, so it doesn't use a lot of energy, it will look great in your garage!

Blueberry detail spray smells so good and works great How did you get the new DS so fast? Mine shipped smartpost and apparently is taking 12 days to go from CO to FL. Oh nevermind mine is in Georgia. Unless it takes 10 days to get to me from there, I should be able to try it this week. Glad to see you liked it!
