Dave

 

[JeepJeepster]

Those bottles have top secret stuff in them Dave.. Im taking a risk post a pic of them..

 

[offrovering]

what's that thing that looks like a fan, the blue thing?

also, what is the extractor for? ha

 

[JeepJeepster]

The Blue thing is called a Grit Guard. It goes into the bottom of the bucket and keeps the dirt and such on the bottom so it doesnt float around in the water and get back onto you mitt then scratch the paint.

You really should use two buckets to wash a vehicle. One with rinse water in it, and one with the soapy solution in it.

Anytime you wash a panel, you rinse your mitt off in the rinse bucket then put it back into the bucket with the soapy solution.

The extractor removes hair and such from carpet and fabrics..

Yup.....you heard (and seen) it here first. Me too.

Jeepster really gets into it. I'll have to put on my shades to view the pic's of his Jeep when he's done messaging it.

Haha, spend some time on detailing forums and you will learn ALOT.

You just wait till I get home from summer school and take a pic of ALL my stuff..

Then Ill use it all on my jeep.. Over the course of a few days..

Blake does it the way you're "supposed" to do it. I've tried it that way myself, but not for long. A friend of mine does that same stuff, he'll spend an ENTIRE weekend cleaning and waxing his truck. Me, I go to the local $5 car wash and let it do the work, dry it off and use some "quick wax" and I get the same results that he does....all in about 30 minutes. There's nothing wrong with it, it's a hobby for some people.....I've been made fun of SEVERAL times because I keep mine so clean.

 

[Dave]

06Liberty....I was just teasing The Jeepster. I was not making fun of him. I think he realizes that. I've told him before that he does a really good job.

Personally, I do not have the patience to spend the weekend detailing so I applaud him. He does a real professional job if you've seen his pic's. In fact, if I lived closer to him I'd drop off my Jeep at his place and pay him to detail it.

Oh I know, I didn't mean it that way. I meant that he does it the "proper" way and that's good! I just don't have the time to spend (or money) to do it that way. I've seen his pics and it's great, I'm a clean freak too, I just don't have all the goodies like he does. I think the total value of my cleaning supplies is like $20. I try to keep mine clean every day, that way I don't have to do a "full detail", just spiffy it up every now and then. Anyway, didn't mean to come off like a jerk....just meant that I've tried it that way, and now I realize that I can get good enough results for me without spending all that money. Everybody's got a hobby, and keep up the good work Jeepster!

My father does the 2 bucket method. I don't have time for that mess and it ****** him off to no end.

 

[tan's2002kjlimited]

The total value of my cleaning supplies is 5 bucks or so every week or 2
hitting the drive thru wash. otherwise, God washes it.

 

[JeepJeepster]

Thanks for the good words guys!

I know that you were kidding around Dave..

It really is a hobby for me.. I really enjoy being outside.. its kinda like meditating once I get started. I can go all day and only stop once or twice to eat and use the bathroom..

You also work right through feeding your Jeep (as we seen when you had a plate of food sitting out on the cement for it).

 

[2003KJ]

I get harassed for washing mine once/twice a week as well...but i'm not NEARLY as obsessed as Blake.

Alas, I use the ONE bucket method....

 

[Dave]

Alas, I use the ONE bucket method....

Ditto...........

 

[hyde]

I missed such a good topic to make fun of Blake, oh well.

I use take-your-fat-ass-to-the-car-wash method.
