after 15" or so this week by njswamplands

i took the subi into a grassy/mud area. wow does it look good all covered in mud.
 
it was so much fun 4 wheel drifting with the throttle buried, mud flying everywhere....
 
it is so windy today i think i will just have to park it outside and the mud should all be blown off.
 
btw i am still racing my sailboat on weekends and that wind yesterday made for many moments of complete fright. 3 of the other boats capsized in the winds. i made out well with a 2nd tier victory and a busted lip from a swinging boom.

Was the boom mad? Did you tell the boom it looked like a Tribeca?
 
After a road trip to CT, mine is ready for a good wash. I'll probably wax her to get her ready for winter while I'm at it.

After last week's neverending rain, I figured I better take advantage of the nice weather this weekend to put on my autumn application of Klasse All-in-One.
 
 In between washes, I try to nip bugs, tar, and bird droppings in the bud with a Mother's moistened wipe product. Generally speaking, it works pretty well (uncannily so on droppings). However, there were some tar/bug stains that just seemed to be welded permanently on the car -- they'd lasted through several scrubbings and several months' worth of regular washes.
 
You guessed it -- those stains came off almost instantly with the AIO.
 
This is the third time I've applied it, and I've found that you get a better short-term result if you use as little of the product as possible. Just apply a small dab to a fairly damp applicator pad to a small section of the car, then wipe up/buff immediately (I have had the best results with good microfiber towels). But I'll be interested to see if using less product means the coating won't last as long.

Did anyone get on this chat last night? Anyone try these Eagle One products? Just curious - if not, what's your fav? I see Klasse was mentioned above. Thanks.

I'd like to try out their new quick detailing products. I don't always have the time for a full wash, and I think that would work well for me between washes.

Nano Wax by jfl

I've used Nano Wax on the Jeep.
 
Items of note: easy-on & easy-off, leaves no residue on black trim. Didn't do a serious analysis on final appearance though.
 
This is in comparison to Meguiar's #26 paste wax.
