    just a quick question, how are you guys claying then going straight to LSP with no correction

    i only ever clay before correcting as ive always been under the impression claying creates minor swirls

    yeh thats what i usually do, i have my wheel prep down pat now

    just interesting seeing the build up given my M3 has less, and my 350Z before it had no dusting at all with the oem brembo's

    the GT2 with ceramics gets absolutely zero dusting, driving in the wet actually cleans the wheels

    good job Brendan, I really like the look of gloss-it tyre dressing, but I ended up buying DG253

    yeah pretty much, I was a little short on time as I wanted to finish before sun down. But I would usually try get as much as I can out.
    Claying does create minor swirls, but thats just part of detailing. It's nothing thats really noticeable to the average eye.
    Quite the collection of cars you have:worship2:
    all good bud
    Thanks Dom, the Gloss-it Signature Tire Gloss is great. I may end up going to DG253 when I run out. But 303 is also similar in shine.

    when I have some time at the end of this month, I will do some testing on DG253, 303 and Meg HyperDressing on Tyre. Also have to test out CG M-seal, Blackfire AFPP and powerlock

    dang nice work man! That is a nice color and the reflections are just crazy. photography is definitely on point.

    What kind of camera you shooting with?

    Thanks, the photos still need some work. I was to lazy to bring a tripod out, so they are a bit grainy. But they were shot with a D3000 and the stock 18-55mm lens that it comes with. I'd highly recommend this camera. Great beginner camera, takes great quality pictures. It also worked even better for me since the service centre is literally less then 10 minutes from my house.

    hahaha that's cool man. Must be nice to have the service center so close.

    I had a Nikon D60 which is a couple steps up. Nikon makes such great cameras but i just recently sold it.

    Now i'm confused LoL. I was going to grab the D5000 but for the same price i could jump over to canon and get a more advanced camera. The photo quality explains the Nikon name though.

    You shooting in RAW or JPEG?

    You have a nice setup man with your garage and all. Seems like you are staying busy and that is great! So you are in vancouver?

    Nice work.
    A good example of the stuff we Canada. I recognize a lot of those supplies.

    How did you find the zep citrus?

    BrendanS Welcome to Detailing

    Thanks, Zep Citrus is a great cost efficient APC. Awesome that I don't have to get raped on shipping charges for it. Not the best with baked on stuff, but thats where the stronger cleaners come in to play.
