This stuff is the same. Super slippery and will stain some surfaces. I'm considering doing it on a neighbors driveway. If they don't leave soon, I have plenty of plastic I can put down

I'll have to look into the "invisible undercarriage" stuff. Now i just use tire black/shiny stuff under there.

Adam's Super VRT is an amazing trim dressing IMO. It has a great finish that isn't glossy, and it's not greasy like a lot of products. I use it to treat everything from rubber trim to engine bay plastic to my tires

Superb driving day. Early and warm spring after ZERO winter! Love it! Dropped Z off.
Car is getting polished/paint corrected. Summer wheels are being refinished and PSS to be mounted. Should have it all together this week or early next! TIME TO DRIVE

Drove my Z for the first time since last Friday and went to the grocery store

Was a great mod!

What the hell is in that box?

Yesterday I gave the Z a good washing

I also tried out the Adam's Invisible Undercarriage product. Unfortunately, I only had time for one wheel well

It took two applications of their All Purpose cleaner to prep the linings for treatment (almost 50K miles worth of dirt). It looks fantastic so far, but I am really hoping that it lasts a while. It makes it looks new again, very similar to my experience with their VRT on the plastic bits under the hood

Wednesday: heading outside right now to wash the Z. I'm thinking I'll try out the Invisible Undercarriage product on my wheel wells. It ought to be a good test, seeing as they have never been treated (~48K miles)

Let me know how you like those towels please. I am in need of a couple dozen polish/wax removal microfibers.

JARblue, come wash my cars.

I got a neglected MS3 that needs your touch and my Z could use a good clay barring.

They are fantastic towels and priced exceptionally at The Rag Company. If they're good enough for the Junkman they are too good for any of us

sounds like a fair trade for some help when my CSC fails

Will have to check them out. I am VERY picky about what touches the paint of my car. If I never have to polish on the super thin nissan paint, I would be in heaven.

I was out late last night and got to enjoy the road home alone. It was great.
