Chris@Adams Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Har far did you have to drive to the show? No rain I am assuming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XQIZT Posted April 13, 2010 Author Share Posted April 13, 2010 Anywhere from 10 to 100 miles...no rain, no puddles, perfect Florida show weather...not an overnight type show....just a "there and back in one day" kinda thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 When using DS in direct sun its key to spray on the MF first and then wipe, if you spray on hot paint it will evaporate and streak. Same is true of BSG. For my "show prep" I generally have 2 foam block apps (1 for inside, 1 for outside) a BUNCH of MF towels, a 16oz DS, 16oz WW, and 16oz BSG, plus a 4oz Glass Cleaner and a 50/50 VRT bottle. That generally is all the stuff you need for a 'quick touchup' at the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XQIZT Posted April 14, 2010 Author Share Posted April 14, 2010 Cool...thanks guys...so, I'm taking that you'd suggest WW, then DS, then BSG for the paint. (then touch up the glass, rubber and interior as well) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
