Nicely done! It looks very clean. How long does that take you?

About 2 hours including foam gun and set up. different spray nozzles - blow dry then microfiber towel drying, clean glass and wheels.

Opticoat M Wash: 2 ounces (1/4 cup)/ 59.14 ML Pre-wash add 18 ounces water (2.16 cups)/ 532.3 ML (1 to 9 ratio)
16 ounce cap=1/3 oz 1/3 oz=9.86 ML
Opticoat No Rinse: 2 ounces/4 gallons water in wash bucket/use wash mitt
(highly evolved polymer lifts dirt) – dry with microfiber cloths
Opticoat Hyper Seal: apply a bit to microfiber and some to the paint

How often do you do it? That's not going to work in Las Vegas. It gets very dusty here because of the desert

Tell me about it! ? I know there's a way to turn that feature off, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

"Hey Siri, stop listening."

Done!

Thank you. 🙏😁

I knew that it was something simple. The solution was mentioned in another thread a while ago and I forgot all about it.

I try doing a maintenance wash every 3 months. Winter time is problematic - I use Opti-Coat No Rinse.

What do you use to blow dry? I use a leaf blower and my neighbors look at me like I’m crazy.

I use ONR in the winter in the garage when I don’t wanna pull out the entire setup.

I use either a Stihl leaf blower, or a smaller lithium battery blower

Same!

Second time’s a charm. (I was the one who mentioned it earlier.)

Well, thank you very much! 😁😊

Too much got in the way when I first saw your solution, and I completely forgot about it. Picked up my phone to ask Siri something before my weekend getaway, and the HomePod answered.

I won't have to deal with that annoyance any longer. 😁

 

[LFC2020]

Yeah, just like that lol.

That was the desert safari in Dubai, almost needed new 🩲 after we finished, fun and scary at the same time lol.

Whatever you do, don’t have a beef and chili oil wrap while using your Mac. 😬

My mouth is burning just looking at that. How’s your stomach?

Have you noticed any wear on your keyboard yet? There’s a thread where people are desperate to get a keyboard cover because they are afraid of transfer to the screen. If anything, I would think that the added height from the cover would make it worse.

Nice! You need some hot sauce or ranch or something 😂 looks delicious!

It was very mild actually, the red things are sweet peppers. Chili oil wasn’t that hot. 👌

Wear 🤔 still looking good over here, I always have clean hands when using my Mac. 🚫⛔️🍔🌭🌮🌯🥙

Where’s this thread? Any pics?

Sauce 🤦‍♂️😂 it’ll overpower the beef flavor.

No need for sauce, chili oil for the win. 👌

I use my Mac as a table. Does that count?

 

[SloRide™]

No apple car for me 😞 need to hear that rumble or my life isn’t complete 😐

A deep rumble..... as in V8 or larger. Not a 4 or 6. Glad I'm not a car guy..... too expensive. I'll take the good ole supercharged 350 V8 in the Tundra.
