Whats your detailing trick??

For tire dressing I use Eagle 1.....something. But it keeps them looking great for a long time. It can even stand water!!!!

x2 on Stoners Invisible Glass. Amazing stuff. Why newspaper?

 

yo trick to cleaning windows...u dont need newspaper...just a microfiber and control ur spraying...i fold my microfiber and use one side for whiping and the other for drying. people go over board with spraying. spray each window once and for windshields spray twice on the left and right side...no streaks

 

microfiber works too.....but i got plenty of newspaper, and its safe to use too.

 

I use vinegar. Cleans off all the water spots and anything else that is on there. As long as you don't go overboard with it it leaves no spots. Works pretty good for windows too.

 

i use chrome polish and a microfiber cloth on the windows to remove water spots alot of the time.........removes the spots, and kinda "waxes" the windows too...water beads on it like crazy,...and the polish is safe for glass too.

 

I use Mcguire's quick detail after I wash & dry it...smooth as a baby's ass.

If I have dust build up on it (no grime, bugs etc) I drive it throught the robo wash and get the most expensive one (it has spray wax) and drive it straight home from the wash....I live like 1.5 blocks away & dry it there & use the Mcguires. The spray wax+quick detail=AWESOME shine! Plus it waxes the windshield & bugs come off easier & rain just whisks away

Also use Armor All tire treatment....makes the tires look showroom new without that damn shine.

 

I heard that using the clay bar and spray on your windows takes away the water spots. Just a fyi..I didn't try it yet though.

 

I have these little spots all over my window...they almost look like bubbles. I have tried toothpaste and all sorts of stuff and they wont come off. Will a wax work on that or is that just for water spots and dirt?

 

if its minor..sometimes wax will work. try a chrome polish and see if that works for ya!

 

Maybe its just me but i have always heard to keep this stuff away from the windows haha....but im going to go try it because its aggravating as hell at night. They have been on their since i have owned the truck.

 

A little trick I learned if you have old crappy looking black plastic mirrors and door handles that fade like mine did, if you soak them with tire shine like armour-all or whatever, if you let it sit on there for a few minutes and then come back and polish it with a dry rag, it will actually make them shiny but not greasy looking. I think that there's silicone in Armourall, so if you remove all the greasy gunk, you get a nice clean looking surface.

 

Are you sure that your window tint isn't bubbling up from the heat. In Texas I see it all day long people who don't put it on right and leave bubbles under it. The heat expands them so everyne can see. I'm not possitive with what to do for that, but I'm guessing that it starts with removing and getting a new tint.

 

im positive this is on my windsheild....no tint there

 

try some mothers/meguiars chrome polish........it should do the trick. use a microfiber cloth though,

 

ok i will try that today. its supposed to be nice and warm here....need to wash it but i think that its going to rain within the next few days so thats no good.

 

simple green. about 1:15 ratio for interior work, followed by meguiars quik interior wipes. use full strength for engine bay and really dirty stuff

 

I generally use warm water on a soft cloth to wipe down the interior. Just wring out the cloth really well. You can't get any cheaper than that.

I use SYSTEM ONE Spray Wax on the dash to help minimize dust accumulation and also use the same wax on the instrument panel to help hide the fine scratches and also keep dust from sticking.

On the exterior, after washing and rinsing I use a leaf blower to get the bulk of the water off the truck, plus get it out of the nooks and crannies (mirrors, etc.). It works really well on the grill and tires/wheels, too. Also good to get the water out of the bed so when you drive, the water doesn't rush out and get all over your bumper.
