A couple of months ago, I decided to try a different microfiber detergent. My go-to had been P&S Rags to Riches, but it commands a significant price premium in Australia, and I'd often read people say R2R is just hype — not worth the premium over competitor products. So I switched to 3D Towel...

The final piece of the puzzle arrived for my new buckets today.................. Most buckets come with a standard plastic sleeve handle — functional, but not much else. The Snappy Grip handles are a significant step up. Larger, contoured and noticeably more comfortable when you're lifting a...

Ahh, it must be a similar anodized finish they used on my S550. You won't make that finish glossy or POP like a gloss finish. About all you can do it make sure they are clean and coated. Nice choice of wheels by the way!

1. Brembo calipers or caliper covers? Either way, I'd start with a good clean using an iron remover wheel cleaner like NV Purge or ADS Wheel Cleaner. Be thorough, repeat if needed until you remove all of the brake dust. Dry and inspect. If they are still dull, you might want to polish them, at...

I washed the Jaaaag today, which was the first time using my new buckets. The tyres got scrubbed with ADS Clean, the rotors treated with Atom Mac. In the foam cannon and both buckets today, Koch Chemie GSF. I didn't expect an extra 5 litres to make much difference — but it does. On the...

Wash Bucket Update - Part 2 To recap, I bought some larger 20-litre buckets, swapping from white to black in the process. I also got new red and blue gamma seal lids, colour matched to the carry over bucket dollies and grit guards. From here, I wanted to mix things up. If Obsessed Garage...

I covered this subject recently on my Substack page. The article covers why pressure washers don't come out of the box ready to wash cars with, how to optimize an existing or new pressure washer, then three pressure washer recommendations at three price points. It also explains why pressure...

ColourLock Australia have an EOFY sale on at the moment, 20% off storewide. Colourlock Australia Without starting myself on a rant, these are THE leather care products you should be using on your Mustang. Rather than just another detailing company selling leather care products because they...

I added these to the bucket order above. Both have been available for a while in the US but only recently landed here. Reflect is yet another glass cleaner with rain repellent, think the OPT Glass Clean & Protect or Stoner's Ceramic Glass Cleaner. I note you can use Reflect on interior...

My next little project, a revamp of the bucket setup. My current buckets came from Waxit waaay back in 2019. These started out as basic 15-litre buckets with grit guards, a standard white plastic lid, and pre-installed decals. For some unknown reason, Waxit in their infinite wisdom decided to...

Just came across these on Marketplace - Facebook

Bilt Hamber Dynax UC would be perfect for this sort of thing - Bilt Hamber Dynax-UC - 750 ml - Detailed Image

Ah, sorry I missed that. I've bought from that company before and was happy with their service. But....................... Pretty much all of the aftermarket Mustang retailers in Australia are on crack. Be that the ridiculous pricing, to the pathetic customer service, and woeful webstores...

That has to be a glitch, the same item for me came up with $49.70 shipping to northern Vic.

Old Blue collected an unusual number of bugs the other day, well it was "bugging me" so it needed to be addressed. The longer bugs sit on paint, the more likely they are to leave permanent etchings behind. Acidic proteins and enzymes can eat right through ceramic coatings, waxes, and sealants...

Get one of those throw-over seat covers. Throw it on when head for the gym, pull it off when you get home. Obsessed Garage SeatShield EliteSport+ Waterproof Seat Cover for Ultimate Protection – Obsessed Garage I'd also get a bottle of Koch Chemie Fresh Up, which isn't just an interior scent...

No doubt I'm not the only one who was being spammed with ads for this brush across multiple social media platforms. After I noticed a few positive comments from people I trusted, I thought I'd give it a go. For $30 and a few bucks for shipping, it was worth a shot, my hope was to replace the...

The Mustang has been on errand duty for several weeks. So today I wanted to give it a wash and swap out the XR6. For the wheels and tyres, I went with Brake Buster, HydrO2 and Atom Mac. I then washed with Carpro Reset and a Microfiber Madness DeliPad. Drying Aid was Amplify, including the door...

Another two bite the dust.................. The Undressed was my second gallon of the product. As a heavy-duty tyre cleaner, it does the job — it's just a shame it doesn't lather the way Brake Buster does, because that's the only thing stopping it from being perfect. So I won't be getting a...

The Ranger got its weekly wash today. At the moment, I'm in a use-up-what-I have mode, running through products that didn't make the cut. That doesn't mean all of these products are duds, just that they didn't win me over to find a permanent spot in the cabinet. Today's product was Koch Chemie...
