Turning PTO day into total clean up and detail to get weekend ready. I have a pretty simple arsenal: small pressure washer, two bucket wash system with Meguires Gold Class and Chemical Guys Micro Fiber wash mitt, tried P& S Brake Buster Wheel and Tire cleaner for the first time, the best yet. BLO AIR S dryer ( can blow entire car without any towels in under eight minutes). I finish with Sprayway window cleaner and Meguiars Endurance Tire Gel. I think most importantly, front clip and A pillars have XPEL PPF and entire car including wheels were done with IGL Ceramic coating. It makes the entire process of washing much easier and I could probably go two weeks without a wash except for the brake dust on the wheels. After the summer afternoon rains here in FL, the water just blows and beads off of the car.

Got the same waiting for my Bullitt this weekend!
Bought new Sonax Ultra Slick spray from the same place that did my ceramic / Xpel, they highly recommended it, so am curious how it's turn out and I'll post results.

By the way, do you have a trusted trick for the windshield? I even bought the Invisible Glass little plastic reach tool, but still cant' get it 100% clean and see streaks when windshield is foggy. Maybe mine was that nasty?

It might be interesting to see how they repaired it after the collapse near Big Spur.

Are you going to hit up Highway 1? If you don't you're missing out. Big time.

I did it both ways in my Lexus. Well mostly, jumped over to the 5 to save time on a trip up to Seattle.

Been using the same glass cleaner since being in diapers and a clean soft towel, not microfiber..also had the windows treated when the coatings were done.

Me three, lol. Finished my work for the day at 10am. So it's a light detail for the nice weekend we're about to have.
I am waiting until Monday. It must be sparkling on Tuesday for the wheel install. :giggle:
