Well, today I was planning to do a medium size detail. After visiting OctageGuy and Hammerette to pick up some supplies (including BG), I set about it.
I live in an apartment complex that doesn't allow car washing, so I have to sneakily do it in my garage. 80f outside and lots of water in the garage makes for some interesting humidity!
Anyhow, I used the
Nomad to wet the car down just before I filled my bucket with dawn/water. As I walked to switch the Nomad off, I stood on the hose with one foot, which yanked the trigger out of my hand. I then promptly kicked the trigger with my other foot, breaking the interlocking connector. Aaargh!
So a medium detail turned into a quick wash after all :(

So this ended up being a two bucket wash with Mystique, some Meguiars wheel cleaner, followed by Banana Gloss which was stupidly easy to use with a skinny applicator and some Clarity on the glass.
Perhaps it didn't need that medium level detail after all.... did I mention that I really like the Banana Gloss - both for it's ease and it's drippy wet look?
