Lol take it easy psycho, I bet you use a California Car Duster too, huh? We all know those work great.:top: :laugh:

No Way is that Car Duster going on my Truck. There's enough wax on it already. Going out to wash it now so may be a video on the way. Might be hard to get a descent video with one hand on the WATER BLADE.....haha!

I wasn't going psycho on you mate, got your attention though....:laugh::eviltongue:

I made that video of the water blade in action but youtube is down for uploading or something. It didn't turn out that good because I was doing it one handed and I mumble..haha But I will put it up if I can soon.

I dry my truck on the highway at 130mph for a couple minutes.

I use the water blade all the time without any problems.

Have you guys ever tried wiping the tire shine off a few minuets after you use it? It makes the tires look black without that really really wet shine to them.

I like getting tires wet, as well as other things :eviltongue:

I armor all tire foam it, let that dry off and so it's black, (if you spray the foam in the wheel well it looks nice too), then meguiar tire shine it, it's pretty.:top:

I make sure to wash my truck from top to bottom that way all the road boogers flow down to the ground. Also I wash and dry it in sections (forward of cab, cab area and bed area) since there's no covering where I live.

For those of you anal detailers, how do you clean the fender wells and make them look new and shiny?

just how you wash the truck, but under the fenders. Do it every time I wash the truck so mine never look dirty. Spray some tire cleaner up under there and scrub it. That usually works

a little mini swiffer is handy, I just keep it in the glove box and do a quick wipe-down in the mornings, that way you're not havin to do some major dustings.

I use a old microfiber towel and left over soap water (after im done washing the rest of the truck) to scrub down inner fender wells, wheels, and other real dirty areas.

I also rinse the truck with a power washer (to remove any heavy debris) before hand washing, spraying down the truck, inner wells, as well as the undercarriage.
