first quick detail

Glen e · 10-25-2013, 04:56 PM

Time to detail today ,and I've sent this procedure to a few here:

1. wash car with Dawn...to strip the car...you do this once....

2. I use a prep towel which is better than clay, then wax on the total polish and seal, buff it off and wipe on and walk away the Crystal seal - no buffing - whole car is about 60 min to do...I don't believe in hard details....LOL

And it comes out like this for 3 months:

Polymers set up a "candy like" look I love..you can see some of the depth here:

Have you tried Mother's Detailer? I use it on my classic car and it seems to work good. I just want to see how it compares to your product.

Is that a QD?....I use rinseless which is mutifunctional:

depending on dilution it can be a :

QD
clay lube
spray waterless
rinseless wash (see my garry dean wash post here)

Looking good Glen!

Yesterday morning... visited Glen and with his guidance, we did the Duragloss rinseless w/ aqua wax, and then dried, and then applied Blackfire's Crystal Seal process on my silver coupe... it turned out nice & shiny. Here's a few pics along with Glen's cool CGM:

Later that afternoon while back at home in the garage, I resealed with the Blackfire and as per Blackfire's instructions/recommendation, although not required, I also applied a layer of premium wax... boy does this blade silver glisten even more!

That may be the first Corvette7 meet up.

I like how they are shinig. There is a company in Arkansas, I spoke with Friday and they are selling all their Blackfire stuff on sale and then not re-stocking it....so I was kind of puzzled, but I went with Adams.....really liked the service I got from Nick

Glen e · 11-04-2013, 12:44 PM

Looks good.....see you on Sunday off glades for cars and coffee ......

Nate GM · 11-05-2013, 10:22 AM

I've used Meguiar's cleaning products in the past and had great luck.

By the way I can't remember if I told you already but I love your rims Glen!

I quite like it myself. I use it on top of whatever nano coating I'm applying and it is really slick feeling. When I use CQuartz, I top it with Reload. When I use 22PLE, I'll often top it with the Sonax every few months.
