Got an F Plus in Detaling 101...
Today, I attempted to detail Kirky - and I believe I failed miserably but learned a few valuable lessons:
1. Clay is a necessity. Although I tried to wash with wool mitt and Mistique (2 bucket system with improvised grit guard), the car is still filthy. There are tiny black dots everywhere in the lower part of the car.
2. There is such a place as Detailing Limbo. Since Kirky is still dirty I did not want to wax/polish - kind of stuck in noclean land.
3. Small is better. Especially when it comes to brushes to clean the wheels - the one I got was too bulky and I ended up digging in my "guest" toothbrush supply - it did the job superbly.
4. Nero is really gray. My results were less than stellar on the interior, I don't know what I did wrong but my interior is now two-tone gray. Anybody knows a fix?
5. Black Wow improved my score. The black trim looks fantastic.
6. Clarity is perfect for my MacBook Pro. DP should market it to all computer geeks - I'll never use anything else to clean my other baby (and it worked wonders on the windows as well). Also does anybody know if I can use it on the sunroof?
