First use Mystique

Well, broked out the Mystique and washed my Bro-in-laws car. Would have taken some before pics because it was mondo dirty but couldn't tell because it's light silver. Here's what I did (with a thought or two added).

1. used the two bucket method (no dirt guards yet)
2. used 2 oz of mystique in the 5 gallon (probably would have used about 1/3 bottle of megs by the time I was through :( )
3. used my new black lambs wool mitt
4. washed the car - it cut really well (not a lot of suds but know now that isn't what's important )
5. took the dirt right off of the car
6. clayed with meg's and it looks great

would have used hydro or something else but ran out of time and energy. Hopefully will get to use it on the Mini very soon

Bottom Line: Love the mystique and it worked wonderfully and my Bro-in-law was well pleased!

almost forgot - first use of DP MF towels. They were great! Loved the moster fluffy and the weave dryer suprised me on just how much it would hold.

Great work Heather and Nick!

I better start buying gallons of something and suggesting it on here or there won't be any Prima products for me to be the Ken (Brian?) of!

I AM the Ken of Mystique!

That means someone else can be the Ken of Waffle-Weave MFs...
