    It takes alot of time and patience but reward (for those who appreciate the reflection) makes it hands down worth the time and effort!

    I get told I'm an idiot or crazy by people who say I waste my time (these people don't have time to take care of their vehicles). Maintaining the reflection and a clean truck (can't forget to include I keep my wife's Highlander looking fresh) is a hobby to me.

    All that said, we've hooked another one into appreciating the clean kick ass reflection

    Finished up my rookie paint correction. Washed (Megs Gold Class), clayed with Megs, polished with Megs Ultimate Polish, CarPro Eraser, 2 layers of Megs Ultimate Liquid Wax, then a layer of Megs Deep Crystal carnauba wax. It's a learning process. Lost daylight and the opportunity at some really good pics, but these will suffice.

    Rinsed off at the self wash bay, then used ech2O to clean and dry. Then took these:
    DB6B0ADE-A2A5-4F22-B520-D9C1C884FD5A.jpg EA04A23C-2851-4E02-ADB8-348A451DF933.jpg 67C75714-0E95-42D2-B3C4-F928D4DA2E95.jpg

    Then after this I used my bead maker for the first time. Holy Crap.

    edit: when they say bead maker feels slick, they mean it. Not too often does something overhyped end up exceeding expectations but this did. Just wow.

    Just did a quick wash after a weekend trip to Vermon. Truck was a mess before that and worse after. I was out on the ski slopes 2 days ago and washing my truck in 70 degree weather today. It was nice but it's still a mess. Didn't have time to do it right or fully. Plus we have raised coming that will wash up all that salt crap 20200309_130844.jpg 20200309_113451.jpg
