Looks great!! Quick noob questions...

when you used the p21s TAW as a pre-soak, did you dilute it?
how long did you let it soak?
did you rinse the TAW off before you soaped the car?

thanks!!

we did not dilute the p21s taw, we let it soak for a couple of minutes, then rinsed off prior to foaming the car down.
