Last week wash

TheShiftyBadger · 07-10-2022, 11:31 AM

Last one I took was from last week when I finally installed my carbon Remus exhaust tips. What a nightmare to get those things, took around 4 months and around 12 different orders to get the full set, thanks to supply chain and stock issues around the world..

but oh man were they worth the wait.

Interestingly my car looks the same it did at port about 40 days ago. Lol

azuremagi · 07-10-2022, 12:14 PM

Oh no, don't tell me that! Mine got to the port earlier this week. What's holding your car up that it hasn't found a ship? I was hoping my advisor was correct that my car would be at the dealership in Maryland by the middle of August.

It's now at the destination port. It will flip back and forth from port to in transit, a few times.

Had to put the tire shine on the tires today after washing it yesterday evening. Of course that meant a fresh batch of photos. Here's the last one I took.

Heads up on tire shine and this is from recent experience. I used the spray can tire shine which was supposedly no sling and guess what? It was all over on the side of the back bumper behind the rear wheels after I went for a drive. After I wiped it off I noticed a yellow stain which wouldn't clean off with just water. I had to use acetone to remove 90% of it then finally polished it to remove the rest. Tire shine can stain PPF and clear coat on the car. Had it been any longer and it could of stained it permanently. Just be careful when applying it. My car is fully PPF'd so luckily it didn't get on the clear coat.

I've been using Chemical Guys VRP Protectant for nearly a decade without any issues or having it sling after application.

Same here same case with the Adam’s tire shine. Nothing beats a clean shiny tire

Limegrntaln · 07-10-2022, 08:15 PM

This is definitely some of the best tire shine I've used. Lasts a really long time, no sling.

That's good. Do you wipe it on there or is it a spray?

I wipe it on using an applicator pad similar to these. I just cut them down so they are the proper size for the tires and to ensure there isn't an excess amount of VRP on there.

Nah Tony's Hand Car Wash in The Bronx. The amount of detail they put in for a $25 hand wash is great. I travel across the bridge for the wash every time and it's worth it

Ditto! I swear by VRP. Never any issues.
