First 04 TL wash/wax
So today, even with the broken back, took some time to wash/wax(not yet) my car. Now new owners of the 04 and upcoming owners of the 05 I HIGHLY recommend the clear nose mask. I wish I had gotten one. While washing the car, I couldn't help but notice all the little chips caused by rocks...big no no. I used NXT Wash and topped off the dry with an electric leaf blower. WOW what a beast. My dad was coming home and he laughed at me. He is very traditional and sticks to hand drying but WOW it works amazingly well and is a GREAT time saver. I simply dried in sections. I used the left blower, got a majority of the water off, finished off with a microfiber towel for each side. Highly recommended. Now soon I'm going to go wax and do tire shine...first time using "real" wax. I always stuck to the basic turtle wax...add water and basically wash your car again...I'm afraid of messing up and might end up just doing tire shine. Oh and of course Stoner's Invisible glass for windows.
Anyways for the new TL users:
- If you don't wan't chips from rocks, Nose Guard
- LEAF BLOWER IS THE BEST DETAILING TOOL EVER. (in my opinion )
