Finally a wash after the snow

Finally got a chance to wash my car after a nice snow storm. Thansk to Phil [DetailersDomain] for the recommendation on what to use to preserve the Nano coating he applied. If anyone is on the fence about doing a coating, do it. Best money you will spend on your car especially if you love to wash it. Ease of washing, drying, shine, no swirls (if you wash it properly), and it always looks great.

Looks awesome - I can't quite make out each product in the pic. Do you mind posting what you use?

Sure

Nanolex Pure Shampoo
Nanolex wheel cleaner
Nanolex final wipe/ I use this for helping with drying but you can use it as a quick detailer also

Nanolex wash coat/ this is used to prolong the nano coating and is applied with a pressure washer

Kenotek detail spray to finish up and bring out the shine

I also just upgraded that foam gun to an acutal canon to attach to my pressure washer. That gun in the picture is amateur hour compared to the one i have now.

And to wash I use two bucket method with grit guards in each bucket

feel free to ask me any questions I love detailing as a hobby

Nice work! I was noticing how "blue" my LBB looks when I was getting gas the other day. Very different than daylight or garage

I think you may have just posted my entire shopping list for Detailers Domain. The car looks awesome. Nice job!

Can you give me the name or a link to that foam gun attachment for your pressure washer? My foam gun (like the one in your picture) cracked and now just sprays water all over me. It's headed for the garbage. I'd like to upgrade and take advantage of my pressure washer while I'm at it.

Thanks!

My new foam canon is the UBER SUPER DUPER FOAM CANNON, and I got it form DD. They are located so close to me we have become quite friendly. Phil is the man. Tell him Vic sent you
