Wow, fantastic job. How do you like that kranzle pressure washer? I hear they are pretty pricey? Does yours have that auto on/off switch? Incredible job. I have some Iron X on order along with Cquartz. Hopefully it comes in soon.

Also, about how many hours did it take you to fully detail this car. I've really only detailed my car once and it took me two weeks. I am a little slow with my DA. Hope to get the FLEX soon too.

I am going to lightly polish mine again this summer 2 years after the main 105/205 and DD and quick washes and I had to claybar the whole front which left lots of swirls in my paint.

Cant wait.

I am going to have to do my own PPI detail inspection on whatever car I buy so we will see how that goes. I am gonna do a complete write up on it and take lots of pics. The dealer is bound the **** the paint up on the car (like they do with every car they detail lol) so ill have to fix it all some weekend.

I am VERY excited. It is almost car detailing season and I CANNOT wait.

I love that it is self priming. I'm envisioning DI water from my RO/DI filter filling up a large 50 gallon drum connected to this self priming Kranzle would be a dream!

Got to get my g/f the ring before I can get my real toys.
This will definitely be on my wish list.
