Spray it on the car and wipe it down. It assures there isn't any residue or film left on the clear coat before you put your wax or sealant of choice.

Isopropyl Alcohol. It’s good to use after all processes are done right before putting on your sealant/wax to make sure they’re aren’t any lingering contaminates on the surface from the other steps.

Just applying wax only, yes I keep the polisher on a lower setting. Minimal pressure. I then wipe it all off with a microfiber. I don't think I would go over the surface with a dry pad. If you're not happy with the shine you're getting, there are alot of things it could be. One is the product...

So the main thing you need to know is that you don’t need 18 different products in tiny bottles from the auto parts store to detail a car. That’s what you learn when you really start to study it. When you buy products by the gallon from a company like Superior Products and dilute them yourself...

Yes familiar with clay bar, I’ve done it a bunch.. This was not the permanent coating just yet. It needed a light polish for scratches from wheeling so I just went with HD Speed. Once that coating were off, I’ll assess the clear coat and do a clay bar and ceramic. I just prepped with iron decon...

Thanks. I can understand that. My day job is very stressful and I’ve found that I enjoy detailing very much and I’m real good at it. It’s my therapy.

It’s going in next week for lift, 35’s, OD Green wheels and some other suspension goodies.

It is the FS-15

It depends on how contaminated the paint is. The way to tell us rub your hand across the paint when it is dry. If you can hear your hand making a rubbing noise across the paint, it probably needs to be clay bared. You need to spray it down with iron decon first though. In the case of her truck...

It’s my therapy so I get a lot out of it.

My wife is fortunate not only to own a JT Texas Trail but also the fact that my hobby is detailing and I do it for fun. I spent right at 10hrs on it this past Saturday. You'll notice I had to tape off all the rubber and plastics before doing an all in one polish/wax. For those that are curious...

HA! I looked but didn't see this posted so I posted it too. Once it disappeared, I found this post. Oops. I tried to do the right thing at least.

I manage a fleet of pickup trucks as part of my job. I will tell you from recent experience, I think parts are so valuable right now on the market and body shop work so expensive, insurance companies are totaling vehicles for much less damage than what you would think. I recently had one of my...

Causes all the pressure from the pull to be placed on the parking pawl in the transmission. More load on it than it’s designed to take.

When she was winching, the truck was in N, and the parking brake on. I had the hood up to act as a shield and I was sitting in the drivers seat with my foot on the brakes.

Why not use it?? My wife had a blast pulling this stump out. Side note: I don't know about other synthetic winch lines but the one that came on this DV8 winch was wet at the time and black water was being rung out of it by the winches and causing a black puddle under the bumper that when I first...

This is not a copy and paste. I actually came across this in my travels this weekend and thought it was too good not to share. I can at lease say that it stayed there the entire day Sunday and based on the fact that the business is closed on Sat and Sun, it could possibly have been there 2 days...

I saw it too and looked them up. I had the same reaction that everyone else did. I see why they don't specifically list the tools in the kit though because if they did, you could take it as a shopping list to HF and spend $40 making the same thing.

Good advice. Thanks! For sure on our end, that's what we thought we were getting out of this. There is really so much more I could share about this event than I've even shared here. In hind site, I wish we had just walked away and said this wasn't the event for us. I think they had way more...

It's funny I get that response alot but then when I have time in my schedule and I'm feeling like giving someone the gift of a thorough detail, I can't find anyone to take me up. What I've found is, people don't want to be without their vehicle for long. Because I'm extremely thorough and I...
