I don't think you stupid proofed it enough. I mean there are words AND pictures. Makes too much sense to work.

I'm happy to know that writing my wife's name while claying is officially sanctioned. Good thread and appreciate the humor to help make something that might be scary for some people less intimidating!

I know how to rinse! LOL
But, seriously, I have done paint work for 25 years and have always detailed my own work and I never really realized how little water could be left on a car if you sheet it off with a slow hose versus spraying the car down.
Saw it on Adams videos, not to pimp them. It was just a good place to view the technique. Rinsing this way can lead to a difference between one towel to dry and three. I'm not trying to be combative; I'm just trying to help. I know you know the technique but you could post your own video of it here if you want to keep this self-contained. Thanks for the thread! |

+1 on the OP's post.
For any of you guys looking to start using a DA or buffer, I'd highly recommend the Porter Cable 7424XP, it's arguably the best DA out there for a beginner. Listen to this OP, he knows what he is talking about!! Thanks, Nick C.
