Ohhh Corey... :-)

God of all Griots products...

Now that I've had my 4 runner detailed with the griots products are there a few you reccomend in helping me keep up the shine now? I have to start slow but now seeing my 4 runner and how it is a totally different truck now after being detailed I want to try and slowly build up some of the products to maintain this look.

I was thinking at least the clay, best of show, speed shine and maybe one of the cloth towels or something ???

Christmas is coming up so I know where at least a few of my ideas will come from...

Hellooooooooooooooooooooooooo Mrs Crash
Glad you are liking the Griot's mode.

You should only clay before you apply the polsih or wax.
To keep up the appearance in between wax jobs, all you need is the Speed Shine.

Either pure cotton towels like the shop towels that Costco or Sam's Club sell work great for taking off the polish, wax, Speed Shine, clay, ect.
Also the new Micro Fiber towels that Griot's sells work great for that too.

On a side note, do you or the hub know a blond woman with glasses (cute one) that drives an older Toyota 4x4 that has been converted to a flat bed?
Nice built up looking rig.
She was getting gas at the Union 76 Wednesday morning in Auburn about 6:20 am.

For a rig built up like that I firgure you or Mike might know her.

Corey got me hooked on the Griots too. Fortunately there is NO 12 step program to kick the habit!

Bad Corey Bad!

LMAO... Well sadly I'm already finding myself driving around with a towel in case I get mud splatters on it and that's sooooo not me. Puddles and mud are my friend. It just looks so darn good and I can't stop feeling it. The smoothness. Haven't felt that since my kids were babies and I got to feel real babies butts!
Only bad thing is the very next day someone added a new key mark to my rear fender



Corey... hmm will have to think about the blonde girl. Just got home from work... 4am. Mind isn't all there. I will ask Crash too.

Ok so just speed shine. I assume that's something I apply when the rig is totally dry? and then do I dry it when it's done?
I suppose that's in your little sig info huh? I can go look.

This poor guy was out there detailing my truck for 7 hours. I mostly popped in and out to check on him and bring him food/drink. I did ask him some stuff when he was done just didn't think to ask about maintaining it now.

Ok neither one of us have any idea who she is. Crash said maybe she was driving a bf's truck or something cause he's not sure but that's kinda sexist lol.
