Wash set-up

I also found the perfect spot for the pressure washer! Fits like a glove. I'll need to find a nice way to secur it but hot damn.

 

Ok boys making some late season mods to the cleaning system

part one, get everything off the floor

mount ss shelf and also simplified the hose routing , pipe strap lines to the wall

much cleaner , part two working on tomorrow

also have an electrician buddy going to bring some 20 amp power over there so the cord with basically be gone as well as it will be super neatly wound up and routed local to the washer

 

Made the shelf high so anyone under 6’5” doesn’t wack the head lol

 

Very nice! That'll be nice to have a dedicated 20 amp'er plug in case you ever want to upgrade to a big boy.

I've only washed the truck with 3000 psi gas pressure washer before these Active electrics are nice. not worried about tearing flesh

 

ya totally, the 1200 or so and 2 gpm is perfect for detailing

 

Todays install was vacumaid garage pro vacuum with cox reel and 50 foot hose

What a system, I’ll have pics shortly

 

That looks like a great setup!

I need to get a reel and a 50'er for my Bissell garage pro....only came with 32' of hose

 

Ok got my outlets installed

woohoo, no more cords hanging all over

 

Also got my vac system in and more outlets as well, so now have a full ego charging and storage center and vac system also compressor system

also have a remote for vac

all reels and hoses are made in USA and vac is made in USA , compressor is made in USA, i always try to get stuff made here, if possible, obviously the ego stuff isn’t but it’s the best so it it what it is on that

 

Added a vac muffler for grins

 

Sweet!

 

Did it make any difference?

 

cuts down the high pitch noise which is nice but no it’s not like it’s super silent. But this model is really quiet for what it is

so for 25-30 bucks , ya I’ll keep the muffler

 

Your electrical buddy did a good job. Nice conduit work, use of a GFCI for protecting you, and excellent cable management.

 

ya, hes a perfectionist and this is what he does for a living, I greased him with some cash of course that he was not wanting to accept but I was like dude, take this.

 

Bath time

love me some 0 tds , woohoo

 

And another shout out to technicians choice grape and glow

this stuff is awesome and foams like crazy in my mjjc pro foam cannon

$30 Technicians Choice Grape & Glow

Decided to put a coating of this stuff on like I did with the sienna , it’s really good considering cost, performance, longevity, and ease of application

So thumbs up

 

Super slick and shiny , pretty deep shine

 

All done , looks awesome

 

Here in SC the garage drywall is finished and painted.

 

will do, I did the sienna with the same stuff over a year ago and it’s still pretty damn good, so it does last

 

whatever

 

Just took a longer trip to Indy and back , cool thing

I just hit it with the pressure spot free rinse only and everything dropped off with the coating and didn’t have to do anything else

it didn’t rain so no road grime just dust , bugs, etc

so far really good with this stuff for the price and ease

 

Hey Breathing Borla!

Did you clay bar before you applied this? Looks interesting.

 

i did not , it has a pre application spray to clean prior to coating and it works well

also my paint was in pretty darn good shape and didn’t need it

but that pre clean stuff they provide works pretty decent

if your heavily contaminated or haven’t ever clayd then that maybe would be a good this to try on a panel and see if there is a difference

 

Good to know - I will definitely be looking more into this. I got my front end with PPF but never really liked the cost of ceramic coating for what is really is. This seems like a better cost effective alternative.

 

cool glad to help, it’s awesome for the cost and lasted over a year on the sienna so far even though it’s says only a year on the box
