Sometimes it seems like forever between the time you drop a wrench and the time it clangs to the ground. But what a great sound. I've lost one or two that way.

The foam gun works really well. Pretty cool.
Tomorrow, Jennie and I will be detailing the car. Clay bar, swirl remover, polisher and wax. This time we have a Porter Cable DA polisher.

Sounds like a fun day!
I really like the PC 7424. I was able to wet sand a couple of scratches on the black car and then polish it back out. I was a little nervous about sanding on my car but it turned out great.
Which foam gun did you get?

I keep hoping I will have time to get my springs installed before Saturday but I'm not sure if I will or not.
I am currently in a hotel in Beaumont TX. I pick up on the other side of Beaumont on Monday going to Salisbury NC for a Wed. Delivery then a short run before heading home on Thursday.
That will give me Friday to detail the black car and install springs and dampers. We'll see.

I'm curious about the foam gun as well and what soap you are using. I didn't have much success with mine but I only tried the DP soap that came with it. RE: Porter Cable - has to be the best tool in my arsenal along with some Megs 101/102.

I bought this one. Worked great to include the DP Pros series foam. Still hand washed the car, but this really does loosen everything up and makes hand washing easier.

Prep takes forever but it sure does pay off in the end.
