Tried new quick detailer
I'm always up for trying different detail products. Lately I've been impressed with products made by Eagle One, specifically their All Wheel & Tire Cleaner and now their Wipe & Shine. Between the Turtle Wax Ice and the Eagle One Wipe & Shine, I think the Eagle One product is way better. Goes on much thinner and wipes off effortlessly. I included a photo of my wife's black Mercedes. The picture, which is from my I-Phone, does not do it justice. The paint on the Mercedes and my truck is like a mirror.

I personal like the Ice products from Turtle Wax. This spring I got into spray waxing my truck. I tryed Turtle Wax 1-Step Wax & Dry & the truck shined like new. & on my last wash I used Turtle Wax Ice Liquid Polish & it made my truck shine alot better.

Yeah that product works really well. Who has time for paste waxes. The new quick detailers and clay bars give great results

I picked up some Mother's Clay Bar with Detailer. I couldn't believe all the crap that was removed from the paint. Takes time, but I put on some wax on the parts I did and it's super smooth and slippery.
About 3-4 years late doing this.

Just clayed, and used a Porter Cable polisher with a product that is a polish with a sealer in it. It took all the little fine scratches out and made my truck look like a mirror. Suckers almost paid for.......gotta make it last.

I'll probably just have a detailer do it right so I don't screw it up.
