Return of the slacker
Howdy all!
I finally had a chance to wash Basil last weekend, about 3 weeks after my first "detailing" effort. While working on the passengers side with my meguire's car wash, I noticed some areas that look like someone used a big wide white crayon on the paint. My best guess is that I did not wipe all the dried Epic off properly 3 weeks ago (and never noticed it due to poor lighting in the garage plus I almost never walk around to the passenger's side). I worked a little harder with the microfiber wash mitt with the meguire's, and seemed to get rid of the marks. When I rinsed, I noticed that the water did not bead as well in the areas that I had scrubbed harder. I went ahead and used Hydro (some truly strange stuff), and dryed with microfiber waffle weave.
First, how bad did I screw up by leaving a few thicker bits of Epic on the car?
Second, do I need to strip down the passenger's side with dawn and re-apply Epic on that side?
P.S. I added a porter cable polisher to my Christmas wish list....
Thanks!
