    I was on my way to get new micro fiber towels. Guy stops me and starts asking me about my truck, year, mileage, etc. turns out he works at Michael Jordan Nissan as a detailer. He dropped some knowledge on me I'm now going to pass on to you. First, do (not) put microfiber cloths in the dryer :facepalm:let them hang dry. Second, when you spray this or when you polish black trucks especially - go back and forth. Vehicles don't get painted (in circles) so don't apply anything in circles. While I'm standing there with my mouth hanging open, he goes on to say Bead Maker is better than Ceramic products because of it's hydrophobic qualities. You can pour a bucket of mud water on your vehicle and it'll run right off - no streaks. The same thing applies when you have driven after it rains - those pesky streaks of dirt will no longer appear. Hand wash - don't go to drive through or touchless car washes and your shit will look new every day.

    Wow thank you for the advice! I'll definitely give that product a try.. I've always avoided car washes actually. Surface scratch machines haha. But yeah I appreciate you passing that along to me

    Feel free to explore other options. You'll get lots of great suggestions from members of this site. You'll also see several examples of finished products on this site. Ultimately, you'll have to decide which direction to go. Take your time, do your homework and decide to do what will work for you.

    I love using this ceramic spray after a wash also. I just pick a few sections to do every wash.

    Damn that looks good! :thumbsup: I wish I had a garage. My Tacoma has always been exposed to the elements. Just got the Bead Maker tonight. I might just bucket wash it - despite it being clean. I'm anxious to use the new product and get that jet black polished look.
