    rinseless + sponge. Rinseless lifts the dirt. Sponge absorbs the lifted dirt, and when you squeeze, it flushes it out. In comparison, other mitts don’t really do the same. Like when you wring a towel, the outside layer might push it out, but the dirt on the inside layer is compressed.

    So a little tip for older vehicles with distributors...we used to pressure wash the engine bays back in the early 90's. We would normally try to cover the alternator and distributor with a plastic bag if possible, but that wasnt always the case. If, by chance, water got into the distributor cap, the car wouldn't start. It would turn over, but just not fire off. When that happened, we would pop the distributor cap off, and coat the inside of the cap with WD-40 and wipe it out some. it displaces water and is non-conductive, so you can just put the cap back on and start the car like normal.

    I used Gold Standard + Gold Waffle Pad to work out some light-medium defects on my new-used polar white MB GLC43. It’s one of the best combos I’ve used and while I wasn’t going for perfection, it did a pretty damn good job reviving the clarity and that’s all I wanted for my daily driven car.

    Fun video. Was this to show how a "quick" detail can actually be done with the wool pad alone? I ask because you often speak of your yellow waffle pad as the pad to have if there was just one in our quiver. Given the relative newness of the paint of this car, wondering why you didn't go after it with your yellow pad only since it both cuts and gives gloss.. was it just the time savings of the wool pad? Finally, when will you have your legacy sponge back in stock? Thanks.

I actually did a maintenance wash on my car that is ceramic coated with the 3 year DIY coating and used cream gloss as a drying aid! OMG it is so slick and smells so good!
