    I really liked:

    Using the surf city grime destroyer as a post polish pre wash agent
    adding the prep sol to the foam cannon for the post polish wash
    the great leveling ability of wool
    the ease of on and off of Ez-Crème
    the ease of on and off off Supernatural
    The great look of Supernatural

    No before pictures – I had plans to go to diner and the movies and was pressed for time and I had to drive - so these pics are about 30 miles post detail.

    As you will tell the sun was non existant...lol

    Looks great, so you took the training wheels off just for a short time. Maybe next time you will take them off and throw them away.:thumb:

    Very nice job Jason! I have never thought about using surf city grime destroyer as a post polish pre wash agent. I have been using it to get the love bugs off my cars this last week.

    Thanks man

    Thanks Ketil!!

    My son and I went to dinner and the movies after.. that was my tip!!

    Thanks -yep, they are 8th gen rims

    Thanks Sparkie!


    Gary,

    I had never used it for that either but it worked VERY good.. It started melting and splatter off as I sprayed it on.. the foam cannin with CWG and prep sol helped as well


    WOLF!! Thanks man.. I LOVE the makita.. and wool.. wool is my new obsession

    Supernatural= I like it a lot, as you know I was considering selling it and getting OE but not any more.. On multi day polish jobs and easy on easy off lsp that looks like a million bucks is appreciated.. BUT I'm still getting Rubbish OE - ha ha
