The Bounty Bar Kid Posted April 18, 2013 Author Share Posted April 18, 2013 I recently purchased Dodo Juice Purple Haze Pro, but I'll use that sometime next week to add some more layers of was ontop of the Megs Ultimate Wax. Just put that on for the moment as the it was easier with the sun being out at the time of waxing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian@TORQEN Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 So that's the reason you were so quiet today! Well, I only use this, every now and then, one of the advantages of having the car vinyl wrapped! This lasts me for about two years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian@TORQEN Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Just has to be blue or turquoise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ioneabee Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 the trouble with the eucalyptus one is that you will get two bears clinging to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jumping350 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 (edited) That is pretty epic , car looks great, do you really have to do all that in that order? That's why mine looks like its always been driven through a forest, what's the 2 bucket method? Is it like my method, chuck a bucket of water over it smear the dirt everywhere chuck another bucket of water over, give up and go inside Edited April 18, 2013 by jumping350 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
