I just bought a detailing cart and a bunch of other supplies as well. Car hasnā€™t even arrived šŸ˜†
The windshield cleaning tool is an absolute winner! I loathed cleaning the windshield before I discovered it.

Very nice! I think I may have to pick the same up for my dog. Have you run across any rear door covers as well?
No, Iā€™ve not. It should be easy to wipe down the doors.

FL5 - Championship White
Finally got it tinted. Just the side windows, I don't like to do the rear as I don't have the best night vision and there is no way I'd risk a front window - optical blemishes drive me nuts. Ceramic whatever, super cheap because Miami.

Car has been washed, de-ironed, clay towelled - hopefully tomorrow morning I'll get any water spots off and do some light polishing prior to a graphene coating.

Made a template for a mesh insert for the front wheel vents but couldn't get the push pins out, I'll pop $10 for a proper puller.
looks great. Thanks for sharing.

You'll like that Turtle wax Ceramic.... it's the easiest stuff ever to use and it beads water like crazy!

Nothing I actually did to the car, but I ordered fitted floor mats and a trunk mat for it. I don't want to get that nice red carpet dirty.

It received rave reviews when it was first released years ago. I tried it and wasn't impressed. The longevity isn't there and there's no hardness to it. It's interesting that they're marketing it as a "ceramic" product when it has very little in common with a proper ceramic product. You're better off getting a true ceramic coating and use a maintenance product like P+S Beadmaker or Gtecniq C2V3.
