      ​ @epicautomotivedetailing I first saw Sandro using one (Car Craft Auto Detailing) a long time ago - and he rated it as a daily mobile detailer's tool back in the days before his studio. (Another) Wicked channel and what looks like a great tool. Its on my list. Quick Q on your air compressor as i@ve got he same one, if i may.. What PSI are you setting it at and are you doing that on the compressor itself or do you have one of those additional valve things to set it? Jsut curious as I barely use mine (as you know, The Noise!) and this would be a good way to start doping so. And ten mins? That's a result in itself! Less mess, less fuss and quick. And who doesn't like one of those on a Friday?

    Wouldn't some citris-based cleaner on a cloth take off that lithium grease? It usually works for me and no danger of scratching the plastic (or metal). Also, I usually use the blue scotchbrite sponges because they will not scratch metal and usually won't scratch plastic either. In fact, I only use the green scotchbrite when I WANT to scratch the surface.
