Just purchased a new car and fell down the rabbit hole of detailing and discovered this channel. I totally get where you’re coming from with the process of going head over heels into something. I study things for hundreds of hours and have an insatiable appetite for information. I can’t tell you how relieving it is for me to find your channel and your website because as you know, it can be exhausting sometimes. I have faith that the product I’m buying from you is the best of the best, but I’m looking forward to experimenting myself as well. Thank you.

I kept hearing about obsessed garage on a bunch of detailing videos and eventually was like, alright, i gotta see who these guys are talking about. Needless to say after watching a bunch of these videos i really fell into the rabit hole of detailing. I hate clutter, i love user experience, and i love keeping my car clean and protected. I appreciate having someone whos gone through the process of figuring out what tools/chemicals work and what doesnt work and its helped me to find a line of products and tools that work and forming a good method of detailing. I recently upgraded my Griots G9 to a rupes LHR15 mark iii and got an Ibrid Nano and they work amazing. Also just put in an order the other day for a Kranzle 1322tst and a few other items from OG and im excited to try them out. Thanks again for the work and obcession. People might think youre crazy, but its a crazy that makes sense.

The Brewster is looking good, Matty! I can agree with you on the whole GSF scent debacle. I used to be in the same camp where I didn't care about scents, and most of the products I used smelled like chemicals or down right gross, but the performance was there. HOWEVER, an enjoyable and refreshing scent can turn a good experience with a product, to a truly happy one. It's like walking in the house on Christmas Day seeing your whole family, that's amazing. Walk in, see your whole family, and the whole house smells like fresh baked cookies, whoo boy its a good time haha! I think that big grin on your face while foaming the GSF-X is testament to this!

Man... I love the look of the CUP2 way too much, especially when taking such good care of. It's not even the lettering on the side that does it for me but more so the fact that the sidewall of that tire just goes straight down into the rim, instead of having those stupid looking rim protections, which makes the tyre much bulkier looking which i absolutely love. Then additionally these amazing silver Porsche rims below the tyre. Matty keeps saying it and it literally is the case : this thing is perfection, regardless of where you look at it.

Matts 100% right about the cheaper Chinese stuff. These companies have to cut corners somewhere and its usually in the stuff i mentioned, maybe little things but it diminishes the user experience. I bought a shinemate ex620 because the amount of people saying it was a lhr15 mark 3 but half the price. When i got it i was not satisfied, vibration, weight, where your fingers rest, mushy trigger lock, horrible power cord thats attached, etc...returned it and got the G15 and its 10x better in every way. All those negatives on the shinemate are pluses on the griots and more. Lifetime warranty isn't bad either 😏

Gonna be critical but I hope this is what we do here for the sake of learning and appreciation. As I look at PPF on vehicles, I don't get the same wow factor as I do with paint and clear coat. Maybe a lil of the camera or I'm not seeing it enough in person, but it just doesn't seem natural.... if you can call paint natural. Protecting paint is the purpose but it just doesn't seem to pop as much. I wish it did. Am I crazy to think this?
