        I don't have a 5" BP for the Rupes yet. I will need to try this combo once I get it. Probably the only BP I don't own at this point. Somehow I ended up with about 8x 7" BPs for the G110v2. I've been trying to give them away.
        I am guessing you used washer mod for the job, how much better is it compare to doing a job without it?

        Ohh and how'd you like the faux clay towel? It looks interesting. I still have yet to use the clay pad I bought will let you know when I do. Seeing I have stacks of Megs clay I don't think that towel will be added to my collection for a few years unless it does something magical.

        Did you apply wolfgang fuzion by hand? Was removal hard after 15mins? The instructions on the package are kind of vague. Like you said before it looks like WOWO product, but I remove most waxes after just 15 mins if they are cured right. So it seems not so much a WOWO. Is it comparable to anything else you worked with?

        I have no photos to share of my Rupes work. Only used it on my car and wifes Pilot so far. And the G110v2 is the main tool used when working on customer cars, I haven't done anything more than a few polish/wax jobs recently.
        And lastly you are in serious need of a pressure washer and foam cannon of sorts. I thought I had good foam action with the hose/sprayer combo we both were using. But compare to pressure washer and MTM foam cannon the soap picture you posted has me asking "where's the soap?" In full disclosure I don't notice any difference in cleaning power when using either method. Foam looks cooler i guess. Maybe it helps with cars in serious need or in road salt areas.

          My collinite 476s will look better than the Fuzion

            Looking at the pics yet again, the car does look a lot wetter. Seems as though it has a new layer of clear coat. Looks real nice... Swirl free, paint looks thicker...
