Halloween Detailing Q&A: Shining up a Ghastly 350Z

Hello, hello, hello, and welcome to this very spooky episode of Q&A Thursday here at the RAG

Company.

I'm your host, Dane Hennan. To my left, none other than Anthony Fisher.

Dane, thanks for having me. Happy Friday, hollows, hollows Eve.

It's, well, I think hollows Eve is actually tomorrow, but yes, yes.

I said that's what I said, hollow, hollows.

Oh, oh, hollows Eve Eve.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Well, welcome everyone to a special edition Halloween Q&A Freakin' Freaky Thursday.

Oh, yeah.

So, Dane, I'm happy to be here.

And then we also have another guest.

Yes.

Another killer in the house, Mr. Gabriel Garcia.

There he is.

Thank you, guys.

I'm glad to be here on this Halloween live.

It's going to be fun.

Yeah, I've got a little bit of an interesting car behind me.

It's a little bit different.

So the story behind this one, apparently there was a takeover and Carson was driving.

Oh my gosh.

Don't people know by now that takeovers are just bad news?

I keep saying this, but the kids these days, they just don't listen.

You know what I'm saying?

That VQ platform, just abused.

Let's just say this, Carson was fine.

Everything was okay.

I can't speak for that, per se.

So we're going to kind of attack this in a little bit different fashion.

So we're going to do a brake buster and wheel cleaner on the wheels.

We're going to foam brake buster because this is a drift queen.

I'm going to use a little bit of ULIX on the fenders and different areas to get

all of the tar or rubber off the vehicle.

You know, spinning in intersections does cause a lot of bit of rubberization

on your panels.

It's exciting.

You know, if you bought from our Halloween sale, the slasher soap right

here, we're going to utilize this stuff on this car.

I am going to go ahead and clean the adapt because I'm sure after hitting and

crashing into people, there was accidents inside the vehicle.

So we're going to clean the door jams as we go.

And then we're going to use a little bit of Opti tire bond for the tires to

dress them up and make them look nice along with some G-Technics C2V4 with

some added protection.

That way on the next takeover, this stuff just glides right off.

You know what I'm saying there, Anthony?

No more accidents like this.

I know what you're saying.

So right now, I'm sorry, I'm getting a little overly concerned with how much

fog is actually very foggy.

I don't know if there's like another camera angle, but what's happening here

is the fog machine.

Oh, somebody's just all the owner of the car is just vaping.

That's what that is.

It's not a Subaru, but it's close.

Yes, it is.

Very, hold on.

It's just the next step over.

Oh, wait, but you said Carson was driving it.

He is a Subaru.

Carson was driving, so this does genuine.

Why are you pointing it in my direction?

No, look at that way, Anthony.

Oh, that's horrible.

It's got to get more towards you.

I think the only thing scary about this is how much fumes we're going to

consume out of this.

Okay.

Now, back from Gabe there.

Let's bring it back over to Anthony and I for a moment because there is

something very special about today's episode compared to other Q and A's that

we've done.

Well, in the recent past or really ever, we're trying something a little different

because we thought this might be kind of fun.

Why not do a giveaway?

You know, people are always doing giveaways, trying to build up the

audience, get people excited.

Come on out here.

You know what though?

We thought let's actually do like a good size one, like a big one.

And today, Paulage, it was his part and that's what he hasn't done it ever since.

Gabriel, you are literally smoking right now.

Like I am looking over there.

There is an obscene, there is an obscene amount of smoke surrounding you

and all of the products.

Oh, my God.

OK, I know you're joking, but now it kind of feels like we are all going to die here.

I wonder if we do turn on the fan for a quick second, Gabe.

I think the smoke effect was cool.

We kind of did what we needed to do.

Let's get a little bit of this out of here just for a quick moment.

So let's go ahead and talk about the giveaway.

Talk more about the giveaway.

All right.

So you can actually enter the giveaway right now.

So if you actually look right below the screen here, you'll see a little QR

code, you're just going to go ahead and scan that with the phone that you're on.

Wait a second, wait a second.

So you may need to actually screenshot screenshot and then go to the

QR code in your image.

That probably makes the most sense.

And so leave us up in the background, obviously.

And then go ahead and enter the giveaway.

So what this is going to do, it's going to take you to the website here.

We're going to enter your first and last name followed with your email.

Now, basically for this is what this is going to be is five one hundred

dollar gift cards are up for grabs here, and you can use them

however you choose and all five of them will be given away during this

livestream right now. Yes.

Now, each one of those five are an individual drawing.

So five different people have the ability to win, but it is up to five hundred dollars.

So it's like only one person entered and they entered five times and they were

the only one there, then they would get them all.

So obviously it's in your best interest.

Pop in there, get in there and whoever's watching, I hope, I hope.

If you're watching right now, that you're one of the lucky winners.

I agree.

Oh, good.

You might continue to turn on that fan game.

It's fine. It's really not even that loud.

I'd probably just keep it on for just a few minutes because we really do need to

clear out this smoke.

It left this weird a graveyard, right?

Then this would probably make a little bit more, see, we can't even see

what's happening on a game screen.

I was going to show you guys why I have the axe because I was actually

going to use the axe to remove the guts.

Okay.

And so where the guts from, so there was a takeover,

something that went to a takeover, obviously, you think they have learned

by now that you don't go to those because this is what happens.

Carson, I don't know if Carson learned, I really, I genuinely don't.

I think we still need to talk to him about it because to be quite

honest, this is a fricking disaster.

It really is.

We're off to a strong start.

It is.

We have guts on a car.

We have a studio film with smoke.

We don't win anything, but the crown gets to win up to five things.

Five technically almost $500.

I mean, we're still in the studio with smoke.

Yeah, yeah, we're doing this for you.

Yeah, we're doing this for you guys.

So I hope you entered.

You, I hope you liked this.

So enter the giveaway.

We will be answering your questions as we go through and we'll

be announcing winters as we get through this show as well, which is

going to be really cool.

Now coming up very soon here, we'll be the first one very soon.

So Dane will be the announcer there.

I do want to give a very special shout out to Glenn and Nick and even

Seabass for setting up the full set here.

This looks and feels incredible.

Excellent.

I have a goblet here of slasher soap that we will be drinking.

That is delicious.

Tastes like real soap.

Yeah.

Don't actually drink the slasher soap.

You, you probably will feel somewhat sick.

This is actually just Powerade zero.

Still tastes like soap.

I like it.

I think it's refreshing, Dane.

So it also a big shout out to everybody who picked up the mystery boxes.

Right.

So the mystery box is actually still going on right now at the

dragcompany.com.

The first 400 that were shipped out did come with the limited

edition slasher soap.

All of the rest are going to be shipping with the shampoo plus, but

regardless, this has just been an awesome sale for us.

People have asked what's the best mystery box to get one, two, three

or four.

In my opinion, they're all really good.

You get about $150 worth of value for $80.

You really can't beat it and you get some really cool stuff.

So pick that up while you can because the sale will be ending

freakishly, scarily soon.

So yeah, basically stock up while you can.

Now, as far as the giveaway is concerned, I did see some comments

where people like, oh, no, it's sending me to a t-shirt page or

some other random thing.

The QR code is not working for you.

I have a little helpful thing for you.

I actually pinned a comment before we started this live that

has the link that takes you to the page for the giveaway.

So just follow the pinned comment from TRC.

Go to that page that says the rag company slash slash

something or other giveaways and you will be able to get in there.

Now, if you want the exact URL, I'll just say it's the rag

company dot com forward slash pages forward slash giveaway.

That's it.

Once you go there, you just enter in and the rest is history

and you only need to enter once by the way.

You don't need to enter multiple times.

Once you're in there, you're in the running.

You only have to do it once and you're eligible for all

the drawings.

True.

Right.

So that is that.

So please grab yourself a glass of blood and and join us for

this awesome special edition Q&A.

So, Dane, we have some questions we need to answer.

We what are we working with?

Let me let me start out in the first pager.

I've got Chancellor's self.

Oh, haven't seen this name before.

Oh, I'm really interested to see how this Nissan turns out.

Curious how they handle the dents and scratches.

Love your podcast invids.

Well, unfortunately, we couldn't get ahold of the PDR guy as

well as the paint guy for today's episode.

But we're going to do what we can by just removing some of

this, you know, caked on red goop.

Yes.

Only one of the ones.

Oh, that's true.

Okay.

Well, it's getting less smoky in here.

So I suppose that's a good sign.

We have that going for us.

I'm working now that I've got the smoke out of the way.

I'm working on getting everything set up.

So bear with me as I move carts and, you know, that's

all right.

We'll take care of some questions while you're handling that.

Well, Neil White saying a happy Halloween Eve TRC, a happy

Halloween Eve to you.

I don't know if anybody noticed, but we do have a full bowl of

candied corn in front of us.

It's horrible.

Nobody really likes candy corn.

This will continue to sit here probably for an eternity.

There's actually a fly on the candy corn because well, the

fly likes the fly is the one that does like it.

So feel free if you'd like to stop in and grab yourself a

piece, you know, if anybody else is listening.

Dean, will you enjoy one piece?

Well, I do enjoy the show one piece, but that's besides the

point. Anyway, moving along, Dan Pfeiffer here.

Good afternoon and we're up from a cloudy and cold Minnesota

USA. Happy Friday Eve TRC gang pumped for SEMA week.

Will you be live streaming?

The answer is yes, Dan.

I'm going to be holding the camera.

Anthony is going to be in front of it and we're going

to explore those halls, you know, just like just like

we used to.

So I'm really excited to get back out there and do that

as well.

Gabe handled things last year, did a great job.

But I am excited to be back in the driver's seat and

helping out and spotting cars, you know, for everyone's

sake, being way too detailed about it.

We will try and just as I because I don't want to

over promise and I'm actually going to correct

Dane right now.

So we don't over promise and under deliver.

We will do the best we can to give you the best

live coverage we can and do some obviously hall

exploration and check out the other booths and

check out some a lot of detailing related stuff.

If we can fit in other opportunity to go and

visit other halls, right, and see other cool places,

we will try it just this year.

We have so much crazy stuff going on at the booth.

We may actually be probably more inclined to

stay at the booth and help people out more than

previous years due to the launches and releases.

Without without saying too much, I will say we

have some massive releases going on at the

booth, some massive like big news coming out

at the booth and we do have an extremely rare,

very special car in the booth.

So there's a lot happening.

So and we have our first winner being announced.

Oh my God, just like that already.

What we're announcing the first winner

something on the screen.

Oh my God, more blood.

Oh, oh, oh my gosh.

Who? Oh, no, no.

What the heck?

Oh, this is so much happening in a ransom

note. Who is it?

Robert Lopez.

Congratulations.

Congratulations to Robert Lopez.

$100 gift card.

That is really exciting.

And Robert, whichever Robert Lopez we got out

there, we'll know we got the right one because

he entered his email.

So he will be informed via email.

Congrats.

That's a great, great graphic.

Glenn, good job.

You killed it on that.

That is awesome.

Thanks to Glenn for those amazing graphics.

We may have to use that for next year.

Very good.

So anyways, you can still enter, right?

Yes.

You've heard one person announced, guess what?

There's still four more people to go.

They can win $100 gift cards.

So please enter if you haven't.

They're going to keep happening, guys.

The one who shall remain nameless.

Yes, Gabriel.

Did you have your wife enter?

Because I hear she's better at winning things than you.

She is better at winning things than me.

That is true.

So I just set the, I lay the groundwork for you.

That is true.

I don't know why my wife's being brought into this.

But let's move on from here.

All right.

So we have.

The one shall remain nameless.

What do we name him?

Freddie?

Let's name him Freddie in honor of the occasion.

Yes.

Yes, OK.

I like that.

So Freddie says, happy Halloween Eve and Friday,

junior TRC family from the pre-stormed cloudy

South Coast of Massachusetts.

I hope you all had an amazing week.

I opened my Mystery Box history with some nice goodies

in it.

Nice.

Well, Freddie, we are happy for you.

We hope that you love them.

Gabriel, is everything going OK over there?

Not so good.

The tip of this gun, the quick disconnect.

Well, for one, you point it out to the ground

before you spray the car.

Yes.

But two, this thing is like.

Make sure it's properly seated.

No, it's seated.

It is loose.

So it's a gun issue, right?

It's a gun issue.

We're having gun issues on there.

Gosh, if only there was a solution for that

and a replacement.

Yeah.

Gosh, dang it.

I'm looking forward to seeing what SEMA brings us.

Maybe we'll have some options.

Yeah, I hope.

Yeah.

Next up here.

OK, next.

The one who showed me the list, what is everyone up to

and dressing as tomorrow for how we're going to be assuming?

Dean, what about you?

Well, I was thinking of actually making good use

of my later hose and going as a little German boy.

A little German man from a little Oktoberfest.

I think that'd be kind of fun.

I like the idea of a little German boy, not

a little German man.

I'm not sure I'm comfortable.

I like you rock around with Frank Fruters.

Say that again?

Frank Fruters.

I don't like the way you said that.

OK.

That's all I have to say about that.

I don't know if you want that.

Wursts.

So question, Dean, did you end up

going to the Honda World last night?

I did not.

You did not?

OK, I was curious if you ended up going.

We have this cool place, like a big maze,

like a Halloween themed maze, like a mile long

that we have here in Boise.

I didn't know if Dean was going to go last night

because he had talked about it.

I had been interested.

Apparently, everybody was going to go, and then they didn't.

Yeah, that's true.

So to Dean's question, what am I going to wear?

So I have multiple costumes right this year,

which I'm pretty excited about.

I have one that I just acquired yesterday,

meaning I could be a firefighter if I

chose to be a firefighter.

I could be Jason if I wanted to be Jason.

Could do that.

But I think.

Oh, I know what one you're going to be.

I think.

More horse oriented.

Yeah, I think I'm going to be something

of the unicorn variety, and that

is due to my daughter being obsessed with unicorns.

I think that that's what I'm going as.

So yeah, that's going to be good.

Oh, yes.

Anthony, the horned creature.

So we've got StealthGR4 here.

Good afternoon, everyone.

Happy Devil's Day.

That's the day before the wean.

Thank you, Stealth.

And I hope you're doing well.

He's starting to feel the smoke in your lungs at all.

Oh, yeah.

No, I'm going to be hacking it up for the next couple of days.

I'm starting to feel it.

I'm probably going to go turn on that fan here in a minute

unless Gabe's going to do it.

Gabe, can you turn on the fan, please?

Possibly.

Anything.

I know I.

He's busy.

I got a film on my mouth, and I'm pretty sure it's not

from the blood.

Or Powerade.

On this gun.

This show is going great.

Gabriel, the fan, please.

We're getting smoked out.

Anthony, we get it.

You're online.

You have a lot of fans.

We know.

That's not what I'm saying at all, you crazy person.

OK, well, you guys fine.

I'm going to go through it.

Enthusiast detailing says these comments.

The scratches and dents should buff out, right?

That's the hope.

We're going to see what happens.

Yeah, I'm not sure we sell a product that's

going to remove those dents.

That's more of a specialty thing.

In fact, that's kind of a PDR thing.

They will have sections for that at SEMA.

And MTE, the Mobile Tech Expo,

is pretty much built around the idea of PDR.

So that's another good show that the owner of this

card could probably attend.

Now, Mac Burson.

Mac Burson says, hey, gang, can't wait

to see all the new stuff at SEMA this year.

Yes.

Same.

We're also extremely excited.

SEMA's going to be an awesome, awesome event.

And you can't wait.

And by the way, Mac, and for anybody else watching,

I am building out those live streams

for each day of SEMA.

So you will see those appear here

on the Rag Company YouTube page.

Just give it a few days, and then they will start

popping up in the feed.

And I'll have a whole playlist.

It'll be easy to find.

And make sure to set your notifications

to tell you when each of those is about to come out,

because you don't want to miss the stuff we're talking about

this year.

It's big.

It's, yeah.

It's going to be crazy.

All right.

Next up here, we have Todd Hill.

It says, I have SEMA anticipation disorder.

If that's not already a thing, then it is now.

And Todd, I think there's plenty of people

that will agree with you that we're all really

looking forward to the big event.

And I can't wait.

Just a few more days left.

Dane and I will actually be leaving with the team

on Sunday night, and we'll be heading out.

And we'll be getting in to Vegas very shortly after that.

And then checking in, and then Monday's the setup day,

then Tuesday's the start of the show.

So we'll have probably a good day and a half in Vegas

before the show starts to kind of catch

our bearings, say hi to a few friends.

Build the booth.

And build the booth.

But yeah, we're looking forward.

It's going to be awesome.

Yes.

All right.

Then I've got Jimbo Slice saying,

Happy Thursday, mischief makers.

Right back at you, Jimbo.

Jimbo, what's going on?

Dane, you haven't had any of your goblet.

No, I had the requisite little clink and toast,

and I am not interested in it any further than that.

I don't know if Glen washed these before she served them.

I don't think that's the problem with the flavor.

She definitely washed them.

She's careful.

They're full of dust in her neck.

OK.

Well, that's great.

All right, so Alclyne Trio says, hey, y'all,

with cold weather coming and house spickets

off for the season.

Hose spickets.

That's what I said.

Correct me again, Gabriel.

See what happens.

I'm feeling very spicy today.

How would you go about washing wheels

without a hose or pressure washer?

Is there a point where they're too dirty?

Question mark.

Well, what do you think?

So in winter, we know that wheels

are going to get pretty caked with not just normal brake dust,

but we're also going to have muck from the snow,

muck from just dirt and runoff and all sorts of stuff,

and things from other cars.

The best thing that you can probably

do throughout winter is keep the faces of your wheels

clean, specifically the nooks and the crannies

of where your spokes meet the outer rim.

That's where you're going to get the most accumulation,

because what's going to happen is no matter what,

during the winter time, you're going to get the same amount

of dirt buildup on your wheels, if not more,

but also your wheels are still going to get hot, right?

Your brakes are still going to produce heat,

meaning that there's still a chance

that those things can still really bake themselves in.

Well, where is that going to be most susceptible?

It's usually going to be on the face of the wheel

where it's most noticeable.

So what I would probably say is that for your wheels,

I would probably try to keep up on them as often

as you can, specifically on the faces,

through waterless washing, rinseless washing,

whatever you can do, even if it's with a little bit

of APC and then following up with a rinse-less wash,

doing that is probably in your best interest

and then focusing on doing your barrels

and really doing the deep clean probably come spring.

Yeah.

Then I've got David Boyce here saying,

congratulations, Gabe, on the gem of an RSX.

Your turn, Dane, time to grab an Integra GSR.

Do it.

Man, there is a very nice Integra down in Florida

every time we see it, but I'll be honest,

front-wheel drive cars really just don't do anything for me.

Dane, you can't say that. I'm just not interested.

They are taking a superior driving vehicle.

I prefer rear-wheel drive.

Yeah, but I mean, front-wheel drive,

if you want to get things done.

Yeah, front-wheel drive is essentially just rolling handicap.

It's not, it's actually, there's a reason why,

you know, the Civic Type R is one of the quickest

production cars on the ring.

Yeah, for front-wheel drive cars, yeah.

And then the second you introduce any rear-wheel drive

or all-wheel drive cars in the mix.

Wow, I mean, there's a massive horsepower change there, Dane,

so I mean, that's the big difference.

I'm not saying front-wheel drive can't be fun

because, in fact, it can.

And the Type R Integra's absolutely do qualify.

But just not my thing.

Just not my thing.

All-wheel drive is as close as I'll get to that.

The Type R SX is very, very nice.

Now, I want to answer Stealth's comment here

because Stealth is saying, man, no costumes, I'm upset.

Stealth, I want you to know, we tried.

We really tried.

We tried, so we actually had our costumes.

They were in a container outside.

Weirdly enough, it got locked up with some crazy,

like, our Wash Bay, I don't know what you call it,

our giant hanging thing got leaned up against the wall

because we were repaving that area

and it actually kept us from being able to open the door.

So we couldn't even get to our costumes, unfortunately.

But I figured, you know what?

I got a rag company, Halloween Circa 2024 shirt on.

Dane's got a flannel on.

Closet full of fives.

Still looks like a killer.

Yeah.

Gabe over there, pretty much always,

yeah, looks, you know, kind of sketchy.

And so, there's-

I don't even know what to say to that.

Yeah, me either.

I don't even know if I can say it.

Yeah, me either.

We're just gonna move on.

Wow.

We have fine detailing.

It says, finally have time to catch a live.

Well, I'm glad you're here, man.

Thanks for joining us.

Poop show right now.

Oh, yeah.

Pablo Concrete, Ola, TRC team.

Is Master Shine coming back to the rag company

asking for a friend?

I do not believe so, Pablo.

No, but I mean, he will probably be visiting

at some point in-

I imagine you'll see him around.

And we will be seeing him next week at SEMA.

We're excited about it, yeah.

Then I've got Alkaline.

Wait, we did this one, but he double posted it.

Then we got Hydra saying hi all.

What's going on, Hydra?

And MB auto detailing, wonder what's in the cup?

We did explain.

It is the blood of our enemies.

Shampoo plus, I mean, yeah, blood of our enemies.

It might be slasher, so something.

Tastes like, so, yeah.

He's wondering is it juice?

No, it's actually Powerade, if you honestly want to know.

Zero sugar. Zero sugar Powerade.

Because we're cool like that.

And then we've got, AKA Steve the Fomer,

have a spooky Halloween everyone.

Soon we will be scrapping dried candy

or scraping dried candy off of minivan seats.

Yeah, you don't have a minivan,

but you will be scraping candy off seats.

I already do that every week, yeah.

It happens anyway.

Yeah, correct.

Okay, okay.

Oh no, Freddie.

I hope that Gabriel has plenty of killer dad jokes

for us today.

I hope he doesn't.

Anthony squirms every single time I say a dad joke

and I don't understand why.

Just a lot of thought put into him,

a lot of humor put into him, and a lot of love.

I mean, can a guy just enjoy a good old dad joke

here and there?

Anthony?

I'm not so sure.

I don't think it's as innocent as you make it out to be.

It's not.

What are you talking about?

Yesterday we were doing a fire truck

and I was doing fire truck shenanigans.

Yeah, you were.

We're moving on.

Next up here, we've got...

Bucky.

Bucky says, is Anthony making some more Portuguese beans?

Those are horrific.

I do not burn clean.

They do, Alex.

They burn exceptionally clean,

but now unfortunately I'm not making any Portuguese beans.

I wish I was.

Oh man.

Um, there we go.

Then I've got MB.

Had an interior that had ketchup all over it.

It was a spooky disaster.

Looked like a law and order saying that was scary.

Oh no.

Yeah.

Good thing you determined it was ketchup

or were you just wishful thinking it was ketchup

and not asking questions?

Requiring minds want to know.

What's hippopotamus stew saying here, Anthony?

I hope this doesn't give me nightmares.

Now why would it do that?

I don't know.

I don't know why it would.

Maybe.

We've got detailed therapies saying what up all,

followed by Jimbo Slice saying that candy corn

is scaring me.

Yeah, I just, you know, I just,

I can eat candy corn if there's like peanuts involved

because then it kind of tastes like a payday a little bit.

Like if you kind of close your eyes.

Other than that though,

candy corn is of like the circus peanut,

like variety.

It is, you don't really reach for it often.

It exists.

You know what actually it is?

What?

They are the Jordan Almonds of Halloween.

Ooh.

Jordan Almonds are the worst.

They are horrible.

Nobody likes Jordan Almonds,

except they exist in a lot of different scenarios

and you go, why is this here?

Okay, I had a dumb joke in my head because of that

where I hear everybody lately has been talking

about like Dubai chocolate

and then I hear Jordan Almonds

and now I'm thinking, what are their Qatar walnuts?

That's, Dane, you need to do that.

So you went there, there was no need.

But Jordan Almonds are, right?

What?

They're the Candy Shell Almonds.

So it's an almond.

They usually come in like pastel colors,

very like Easter looking, right?

So they're really common

and they used to be really common at weddings.

These would be really common at like Easter events

and things like that.

You'd get a little baggy of like,

it's kind of like, how do you describe it?

I don't know.

It's made out of material

that I don't really know how to describe.

It's scratchy, itchy,

and they wrap it up in a bag

and they put a little bow on it.

Do you know what I'm talking about?

Oh, tool?

Yeah, tool.

Yeah, basically like that.

Okay.

Thank you, Nick.

And they throw that in there

and they pass them out

and you're supposed to enjoy eating them, right?

Okay.

They're horrible.

Growing up in a Portuguese culture,

right, like festas, right?

They would actually pass out Jordan Almonds to tables

during like certain events and big events

where there would be like Portuguese princesses

and things like that and queens and whatnot.

And as a kid, you're like, oh, I love candy.

And they ate some Jordan Almonds

and then you eat a couple and you go,

my stomach hurts

and I don't like the way that these taste

or feel in my mouth.

My favorite candy.

If you went to a house

and they gave the regular candy bar of that candy

and you would go crazy, what candy is it?

Reese's peanut butter cups and almond joys.

I am weak for both of those.

Interesting.

Like weak at the knees or just weak in general?

I think it might be both.

Yeah, like, yeah.

But basically, like if I'm getting Easter,

or not Easter candy, Halloween candy,

that's what I'm at.

Yeah.

Favorite candy in general are gummies.

I love gummies,

I love to steal gummies specifically,

but very rarely do you get good gummies at Halloween.

Most of the time they are fresh

and I don't like them anyway.

So I have to steal them out for like a year and then eat them.

Okay.

I love sour patch kids and Butterfingers and Twix.

Twix, huh?

Twix have grown on me.

I love Twix.

Butterfingers do leave a film in my mouth

that I do not like.

I just love Butterfingers.

Something about them, man.

They're just awesome.

You know, it also does that crunch bars, horrible.

Crunch bars are the worst things.

They're always kind of waxy.

They're horrible.

They're just a little waxy.

Crunch bars are a trash candy.

A snicker for a good recess, you know what I'm saying?

All right, and on that note, we're moving on.

Thank you, Dan, for the kind comments.

Michael here saying hello, hello, TRC gang

and everyone in the chat.

Hello.

Right back at you, buddy.

Then I've got, oh my, these comments

jumped around a lot.

Dan is wondering if we were detailing

Cheech and Chong's car.

Earlier, that kind of looked that way.

I'm not gonna lie.

Felt like that, holy crap.

Yeah, then we've got Monya Media.

Whoa, there you go, Anthony.

What's he saying?

Yo, first time I'm catching alive,

I've been listening to the podcast the last eight months.

No specific questions.

Just wanted to say thank you guys for this amazing show.

Have a great one.

Thank you very much, man.

Thanks for listening.

Thank you.

Hopefully we got you for another eight months or so.

I appreciate it, yeah.

Gabe, the fan.

I think we're good.

We could probably turn it off now.

I think we're good.

Here, I'll go get it.

Did Freddy Kruger chop off your feet?

You're just, you're closer to the switch, man.

No, I really am not.

Alkaline Trio.

The QR code shenanigans are peaked here, see,

and I love it.

Miss you guys.

Thanks, Dan, we miss you too, man.

Thank you very much.

Always love having Dan around here.

Anthony, I wish I could hear you.

And so Ferrari, the one and only says

detailing a striker is next level content.

Oh, well, I may have come up with the background story

for what happened with the car,

but when you're dealing with VQ cars,

like the G35, the 350Z, let's just say

they find themselves going in circles

in a lot of intersections and people get hit

and it's just bad news.

So anyway, that's the story we're going with here

because, yeah.

Anyway, Dan Pfeiffer, link is not to a giveaway,

we got the trick.

Buddy, use the comment that's pinned

and you can follow the link there,

Dan, you'll get in there.

I promise, follow the link I pinned, it will work.

If you have an issue, be sure to let us know though.

All right, wait, why are my initials splattered on the hood?

Oh no.

Oh my God, there's another winner coming up.

Another one?

It's happening, it's happening.

They've got another one.

Oh no, just when we thought it was over.

They're falling like flies.

Oh no.

This is so long.

Yeah.

Oh, James.

Congratulations, Bo James.

Bo James.

Couple of sealing pressure washer pops for ya.

Hey, you're hitting the lights.

No, I didn't hit them.

Bo James, congratulations.

Yes.

You will be able to claim your prize via email.

You'll be reached out to you shortly.

Yes, so follow up via the email

you should be receiving from TRC.

Okay, then I've got, next up, Silly Goose.

Oh, it's actually Megan.

Hi, from Tallahassee.

Welcome, Megan.

Megan, how's it going?

Good to have you here in the chat.

Yes.

And then Stealth.

Stealth GR4 says I'm almost certain

that I got the last bottle ordered last Thursday at 10 a.m.

Oh, nice, congrats.

Man, that's a close call, buddy.

That is.

All right, then I got Neil here saying glass of blood,

but Anthony is afraid of oysters.

Yeah, I know that.

Explain that one.

He even refilled.

Look at that.

It's type O, so it just feels cleaner.

You know what I mean?

Oh, man.

And so he was saying he poured a glass of Iron X.

I would not recommend anybody do that.

Yeah.

That's a bad time right there.

That is really funny.

More love for Candy Corn.

I'm trying to find some detailing comments,

so if I'm skipping through, I apologize.

Candy Corn is, I tried a piece just a minute ago,

and Dane looked at my face.

It's just not good.

At least Wolfsburg is conflicted about it.

Here, watch.

He likes it, but he doesn't know why.

I don't know why, so I'm going to take a piece here.

I have nostalgia around Candy Corn.

Cheers, Dane.

Yeah, oh, you're going to clink into the floor.

It looked like somebody lost a tooth.

That's what I always saw Candy Corn looked like.

Oh, my God.

Horrible candy.

It's just, you're just eating wax.

You're eating a candle.

It's like you just bit into a candle with like a little sugar.

Not good.

The blandest sugar cookie you ever had,

but with the texture of a candle.

All right, moving on.

Juice freezing, let's go.

Cheers, let's go.

Oh, my God, Jesse Gries.

What's he saying?

Hey guys, just wondering what's the benefits

of doing ADS Pro versus Quartz Coating?

Pro's going to last longer.

You have to get longevity out of doing Pro

versus doing Quartz.

Yeah, that's pretty much the big difference.

Simple enough.

Looking forward to all the SEMA content coming.

Yes, same here at Detailed Therapy.

All right, excellent.

We'll have great stuff for you, Detailed Therapy.

Jeff Tevantes, oh my gosh.

Whoa, buddy.

What?

He's getting married tomorrow.

Oh my gosh, I didn't see that.

Yeah, I was like, read the comment, dude.

Congratulations.

I didn't see that, I didn't see the end there.

Yeah.

He says, what's up guys, special week this week.

I get married tomorrow.

That's awesome.

I read that as mold.

My brain's on Halloween.

I get mold tomorrow.

Yeah, you never know, right?

I mean, it's Halloween.

Yeah, actually, wait a second.

You're getting married on Halloween.

It has to be intentional, right?

Married and hopefully mold, right?

That's gotta be, oh boy.

I'm pretty sure they got movies about that.

Moving on.

Most of them are on the live time now.

Next comment, congratulations, David, congratulations.

Yeah.

Next comment, please, fast, quick move.

Mac, $100 gift card would be great

for any upcoming Black and White.

Yes, it would, Mac, yes it would.

Make sure to enter, make sure to enter.

Your chances are very good right now.

Yes.

We have 80 some of the viewers right now.

You're definitely pretty.

Mango.

Mango 350Z, yeah.

Hey, TRC, I hope you guys are doing good.

New products coming out for TRC at Seaman.

Yes, there are.

And I'll stop, leave it there.

Well, I certainly hope you enjoy seeing a 350Z

here on the stream too,

because we don't usually bring one on here,

but thought it'd be fun today.

Dents and all, because it is a drift car.

All right, then we got a lot of people

wishing David congrats for that first winner there.

Then I've got Bucky here.

I'm excited for Anthony to leave a mic

in the bathroom again at SEMA.

I don't know where it actually fell that one year,

but I had a hole in my pocket

and the DJI mic too fell through

and it was somewhere in the South Hall,

bottom floor and that was unfortunate.

It was.

All right.

Oh, Mac, you're so kind.

I really, you know, the moments

when I'm the one in front of the camera,

not the best for me, if I'm honest,

because I'll just go full car nerd

and I'll ignore everything detailing

and most people here don't like that.

Ooh, Gabriel's laying down that slasher soap right now.

That's what we're talking about.

That slasher soap is putting on one heck of a show.

Yes.

You don't have to tell me twice this time.

So Gabe, talk about how does it smell?

Oh man, it smells cherry.

It's not cherry.

What is it?

It's not cherry at all.

It smells fruity?

Yeah.

What kind of fruit, Anthony?

I'm not the...

He's just being different right now.

Technically, it's like a citrus mango of some sort.

It's really good.

We were trying to go for kind of more

of that blood orange vibe,

but we wanted it to be a little bit sweeter,

so mango was an additive that we did to it.

It is definitely sweet.

I will say that.

It's sweet.

And so far, so far with just the initial wash,

I think we're going to be okay.

I think all the blood that Carson has caused

is going to wash off okay.

We're erasing the evidence.

Yes, sort of that.

Pretty sure that's a crime in and of itself,

but all right, moving along.

Wolfsburg saying, I'm sure this has been asked before,

what are your thoughts on car covers for outdoors?

TRC should make an ultra soft car cover

that keeps out the elements.

Boy, we've got some strong opinions

about car covers here.

Yeah.

People are having to coding a bit more.

Yeah, I think one of the problem with your car covers

is especially what you just said,

car covers for outdoors.

Car covers, what happens when there's wind, right?

Car covers get lifted.

Wind will enter a car cover,

no matter how tightly sealed it is.

Winds of happening is that those car covers

will again rub on your paint, right?

No matter how soft they are,

they can still rub, right?

No matter how protected you think they are

and they're fully wrapped up during debris,

you can still find its way underneath a car cover

that sits outside and thus can cause some abrasion there.

So I am not a huge fan of car covers personally.

I've seen more damage be done from them than with them.

So we're from them than not from them, I guess.

No, if we're talking long-term storage on a car

that is not at its most fit and finish anyway,

like that Jag was or stuff like that, okay, fine.

That's better than leaving it out,

totally exposed to the elements.

But for a car that you plan on driving regularly at all

or like you wanna keep nice

and you plan to drive it within the next year,

don't bother with a cover, that's my opinion.

Yeah, I think it depends, right?

So you also have your trade-offs there, right?

So you go, hey, what's the worst that can happen, right?

So if I put a car cover on my car and wind blows

and there's some abrasion,

let's just say you do have some rubbing,

marring, scratching, things like that, right?

Well, yeah, to Dane's point,

I mean, how long is it gonna sit like that for?

Is it only like a couple of weeks or a month or whatever

and you're just trying to protect it

from maybe other elements that would be worse?

Then cool, that makes sense.

But if, yeah, if it's for a couple of days,

it's not worth doing, but like long-term, right?

Yeah, I guess I would rather have some scuffs, scratches

than maybe UV damage caused from the sun.

That probably would be my preference.

Holy crap, that soap smells so good.

It does smell really good.

It's blowing this way now.

I love it.

That soap smells in-freak incredible once it's foamed.

Oh my gosh.

Enjoy it and enjoy it

because I'm about to lay down the Ulex.

Oh yeah, that's gonna change things.

I really, you know, I figured since we were hot box

in this joint.

Yeah.

Getting a little freaky in here.

No, but that slasher soap smells

like incredibly good when it's foamed.

We've only tested it a little bit at a time

because again, we only had a few bottles here.

You had to preserve.

We know that.

It does smell good.

We know that ADS obviously got to blow through a bunch

but we-

Shaving cream.

I'm sad because that smell is so good

that like I want more of it but it's a limited run.

So I guess what I'm trying to say is

if you got slasher soap and you go to use it, enjoy it.

So are you saying the scariest thing of this live

is knowing that we're running low on slasher soap?

It's out.

It's gone.

We don't have any.

That's what I'm saying.

Yeah.

You're using the last bottle here.

I'm really using what we have left, Anthony.

That's the scary thing.

It is the scary thing, Gabriel.

Yes.

I need to find some repping rods.

So, Wolfsburg, regarding your comments about covers,

I understand why people think they're a good idea

but there are a lot of downsides to them

and like you said, when wind hits them,

it doesn't matter how good or form-fitting it is,

air's gonna find a way in there.

So there was a guy-

It will flap.

There was a guy that was over in Mountain Home, Idaho,

right, about 45 minutes this way.

He was in the Air Force, right?

And he had imported an R32 GTR, right?

And it's on R32 GTR, very, you know,

a very rare, cool car from Japan.

Paint was in great condition.

It was in this kind of cool metallic gray color.

He put a car cover on because he knew

that he was going to be deployed

and out of this area for,

I think it was like about a half a year to a year.

What ended up happening was that a few windstorms hit,

the car cover lifted

and one of the straps came loose, right?

So what ended up happening was

this car sat for months and months

with one lifted kind of corner of the car cover.

And the strap, the buckle,

beat the ever-living crap out of the hood,

the bumper, the roof, like it flung all around.

And it wasn't like necessarily a heavy strap, right?

But it was just a-

It doesn't have to be.

The wind was so powerful that it used the weight of that

to really cause a lot of damage.

So basically by the time that he found it,

they had clear that had literally been burned through.

He had dents, he had scratches,

he had marring all over the car,

and there were some sandstorms that got through as well.

So the sand made its way into that nice, beautiful,

microfiber inner liner, got locked in,

and then literally destroyed the car.

You would have actually had less damage done

had the car simply been PPFed and or coded.

Yeah, or just parked,

where does parked in like a shaded area?

Well, sure.

Parked in a strategic spot is the key thing to do

because again, it goes back to the same argument

of improper washing.

I mean, the more you touch your car realistically,

the more likely you are at potentially screwing

something up.

Yeah.

No, not wrong.

All right, next up.

Excuse me, got a frog in my throat.

Hippopotamus stew.

Does or will the rag company carry KCX protector wax?

So, oh gosh.

So the rag company-

It's spilling.

The rag company right now is currently,

I believe we're out of KCX protector wax

and we have carried protector wax

for actually several years, believe it or not.

Protector wax really only became popular

within the last year due to TikTok

and it really blew up, right?

Protector wax is an awesome product.

It really is.

However, they do have to change up,

I think a little bit of formulation stuff on there

to make it a little bit more US compliant

than it currently is.

So right now, we are currently waiting on Germany

to make those changes to get us the next batch

and then we will be back in stock

and we'll continue to carry it once that happens.

I do not have an ETA on when that will be,

but that's what we know so far.

There we go.

But I'm sure there's plenty of people out there

that probably already own protector wax,

which is pretty cool.

But yeah, it was basically a viral product

that as of right now, can't really get more of.

But the fact of the matter is

it had been around for a minute.

Been around for a long time.

Silly goose, Megan saying the giveaway graphic is adorable.

It is, and fun.

Glenn did a great job.

Pablo, Mr. Gabe, we are watching you.

Do you a proper job if you will, please?

Just keeping Gabe on his toes.

Pablo concrete.

What do you suggest?

He wants you to do a proper job.

He's just saying, do a proper job, Gabe,

we're watching you.

And you're kind of gassing us out

with the Ulex over there.

Am I not, have I not done a proper job before?

Oh, he's not saying that.

He's just, this is probably from like 20, 30 minutes ago.

Pablo, please give clarification.

What she meant by that comment.

And enthusiast detailing says,

Kyrie, mom enter, you can have your mom enter for you,

correct, yes.

Well, she can enter for herself.

Geez, Dane.

You're kind of like the rule book.

I'm gonna be a stickler for the rule this year.

Stickler, okay.

Mostly because I want people

to have a fair shot at this stuff.

Right.

But hey, there's no reason your mom can't enter.

Hey, listen, there's one thing that,

there's one thing that Dane likes more than fair play.

And that is.

Don't say it.

Oh, what?

Halloween.

You guys always go all in.

Oh, thank you, Nick.

Oh, Nick, in the control room.

Oh, boy.

That was hilarious.

I missed it.

Yeah, you should be wearing your earpiece.

Let's just say it's also a name

for a brand of detailing products,

but he was not referring to the detailing products.

Okay, gotcha.

You guys always go all in for Halloween.

Nice, thank you.

Oh, thank you.

Then we've got eggs.

Oh, I almost called Z extreme,

but that was not it.

Happy Hallows' Eves.

Chaps, what's going on, man?

Yeah, buddy.

Then I have Fucky Canadian popping in saying,

let's go blue jays.

I'm upset the Mariners lost, I'll be honest.

I'm saying you don't even watch football.

That's baseball, my dude.

Gosh, Anthony.

Next up.

Oh, my gosh.

Well, and to call me a bandwagon fan

wouldn't be quite right,

because I used to go to Mariners games as a little kid.

You do?

Yeah, but I went to a Red Sox game once.

That doesn't necessarily make me a Red Sox.

Yeah, I went to about 20 or 30 Mariners games,

so I think I count a little people.

So I've been to one Mariners game?

That's fair.

I think it was, I went to it as like a Mariners,

I don't know if it's like a Mariners Cardinals game

or a Mariners something game, right?

But do you remember the garlic fries

that they have there?

Oh, it's safe go field.

Yeah.

Oh, I don't remember getting those.

They have these garlic fries that are like insane.

Like they're so good, but they're like

absolutely covered in garlic,

and you smell like garlic for like five days.

I don't know, if anybody's ever had those, let me know.

I think a lot of baseball stadiums

have actually served those same ones.

I feel like if Eulix had a tagline,

it'd be like Eulix.

Gets the job done.

No, I was gonna say the eraser of...

Dreams.

No.

The eraser of brain cells.

Incorrect.

Oh.

No, evidence eraser is what I was gonna say.

Gotcha.

Eulix, the evidence eraser.

There you go.

We're on to something.

The next crime scene, like there's like a detective

gets there and goes, I smell something like KCX Eulix.

This guy knows what he's doing, right?

We have a professional at our hands.

It's the same as going to a crime scene

and smelling bleach, except in this case it's Eulix.

Yeah, no, it's definitely a sign

somebody did something that works for us.

If he goes someone cooked here, someone cooks.

Oh, Eddington, oh wow, you're Ryan Rigdon?

Oh, by the way, it's Ryan Rigdon.

Notice last week, live chat changed to our handles

versus being able to chat as our name.

Just letting you know, thank you, Ryan.

I'm always happy to see in the chat

and I had no idea that you were Eddington.

Yeah, YouTube has been doing some funny things lately,

so I promise it's not us, it's actually the platform.

Okay.

All right, then Bucky here.

I know, I'm trying to get to some

detailing comments, guys, I'm looking for him.

Those at SEMA who want some Canadian trick-or-treating

come see me.

Alex, I'm hoping that you get me

some of those delicious Canadian gummies.

I am looking forward, and if you would like

to start stealing them out now,

I do trust you enough to do that,

and I wouldn't be weirded out about it.

Now, if Joey Balinsky tried to hand me

some stoic gummies, I probably would question those

and the legality behind those gummies.

Okay, yeah.

Freddie here is saying funny story.

In college, one of my instructors had a hard time

with my last name and started calling me Fred,

which left to the nickname Freddie for college.

That's hilarious.

I'm glad we were on that.

Did you know that?

Nope.

Okay, well now we know.

That was just, we've gone through so many names,

it was bound to happen.

Jablinsky.

Oh, we had Jablinsky and Joey,

we do have him in here in the chat.

Happy Halloween.

Yes, Eve, everyone, that's right.

It is the Eve to all hellos Eve.

Then I've got Cindy here saying hello, everyone.

Hello, Cindy.

Then we got Hydra detailing.

He says drifting with small asphalt chips

flying at your sides takes a toll.

Yes, it does.

It does.

Keep saying weird things, Gabriel.

MonoMedia says my birthday is around the corner

in two weeks, and I hope big time

that wifey understood the ultra air mini blaster hints

this last month, hope so too, man.

Good luck.

All right, here's hoping.

I think that's a very good birthday gift.

It's not asking for too much.

Or MonoMedia, if you haven't already, please,

enter our giveaway, which is currently going on

and happening five times during the course of the show.

It's already happened twice,

but there are still three more opportunities to win.

Yeah, just letting you know

that could save you a few bucks,

just in case.

All right, moving along.

We've got Freddie saying,

do we get an email once we enter?

Not sure if it went through.

I may or may not have been driving when I entered.

If you have to.

I don't know if there's a confirmation email

that gets sent out unnecessarily.

No, I think you get emailed if you win.

I think that's the thing.

I think we're announcing that you've won,

and then I think that from there

will contact you via email.

But either way, the point is

we then have your email to be able to confirm

you are in fact the correct person.

And so we don't send it to, say, another person

who happens to share the same name.

Lightful.

You liking it?

Yeah.

The smell?

Yeah, I've been foaming at the bit

to really get a good wash in with the soap.

You know what I'm saying there, Anthony?

Okay, next comment.

Hydra detailing, Anthony, Dane, and Gabe.

If kids trick-or-treat at your door,

which soap will you gift them?

So, it's so great.

I mean, I would if I could, right?

Let me tell you this, though.

You don't want to go to Anthony's house to get soap.

You know why?

Because then a whole new episode of Soaps will come out

where he just talks about their scent.

It's about a high stakes law firm

where all they do is,

all they do is protect soap companies.

Everything that you guys are turning the show into.

I hate what you're doing with this show.

This is my favorite time of the year.

This is my favorite episode we've done.

I'm gonna binge in on Netflix.

I'm ruining it with horrible jokes.

This just in, they started a new show, Soaps LA.

I can't wait.

All right, Hydra detailing, you got your answer.

So, Anthony, what would you gift them, soap-wise?

I don't think, so I think the soap

would be a difficult thing to choose.

I do think that an appropriate thing

that I should probably give them

would be microfiber towels.

I'm afraid that they might give them a towel

and they might go, man, this house sucks.

And I go, yeah.

This is for wiping up all the candy.

You're gonna let it melt in your parents' car.

And it's like a full pitch each time.

The kids are like, man, we don't wanna go to that city more.

Now you see, what's really appealing kids

about this particular towel is,

yeah, you could just go on.

So, needless to say, I don't know.

Yeah, I don't know what soap I'd probably give them.

Slasher soap if I could.

That would be the coolest soap to probably give away.

There's just not any left.

Dang it. Sadly.

Enjoy it.

All right.

Look at that.

It's Christmas time.

Shane replying saying he's the one

who's handling the random drawings here.

Nope, no email sent.

If you hit submit, you should be fine.

So thank you for that.

Shane is on the back end there running the show.

And so yeah, make sure to get those entries in.

Hydro detailing says, or just a GTV 365.

I just, yep, that would be fine as well

for a giveaway gift.

Anthony and Gabe, please visit the Ray's Volk booth

and show their beautiful hyper green, hyper blue wheels.

You didn't visit them last year or the years before.

David.

Goodness.

We will probably try to visit maybe those halls again.

We're not making any promises.

The wheel halls are always tough.

But they're very far away.

And again, we are pretty,

we really need to be kind of at the booth this year.

Really hard to get to.

He did the thing.

It's like, I'm telling you.

He's gonna banish him.

He will never be able to come on this show again

if he continues doing this.

He's gonna be forced to go where that car goes.

I will make it my life's goal.

Wait, so am I going with the car

or am I the guy on the outside of the car?

Yeah, you're gonna stand the trunk

until someone else steals it

and goes to another takeover.

Yeah, well no.

And then you have to clean it again.

Well no, and then they'll be forced to just let it go

because they can't stand Gabe still in the car

with them cracking the jokes.

He's making the jokes as they're sliding into the crowd.

And he's just, hey, I don't want this car anymore.

This guy's in it.

You thought takeovers were bad already.

Imagine with him making jokes the whole time.

Okay.

I think it's a great way to.

Oh no, somebody stole my car with Gabe in it.

Please don't.

Take it back.

Please don't.

Please, yes.

Oh gosh.

Yes, no, yeah.

The e-brake's still up.

The e-brake's, okay, no, he's still driving away.

Man, silly goose, Megan saying,

I just used a glass polishing pad for the first time.

Why are they so thin?

They are very thin.

So I think it's probably just due to pressure

and the amount of pressure that you can probably

probably provide to the glass.

So gosh, why am I right now?

I'm having a blank, probably due to all the Ulex,

but there's a name for those pads.

And right now I am completely drawing a blank.

Thank you for the fan on.

Yes, thank you.

Thank you.

But anyways, they've always been thin and really,

why am I, it's on the tip of my tongue.

The Ulex is killing the brain cells.

Why can I not think of the name of that pad?

Oh my gosh, it's okay.

Anyways, yes, they are meant to be thin.

That's how they are.

I mean, if you type glass polishing pad

or glass pad into the search, you should see it.

It's in, it's on my tongue.

Why can't I say it?

Move on.

The Ulex is definitely making it hard to think.

Sheepstar Detail says,

because glass is usually pretty flat

and you want much correction force

as you can get, correct this again,

it's a pressure point situation when it comes to those.

Joey Blinsky says,

Dane is also being spicy with his four wheel drive,

front wheel drive talk, I'm slightly hurt, yep.

I'm sorry, Joe Blinsky, Joey.

My favorite version of your car

is the one that powers all four wheels

instead of just the front two.

But GTIs are fun to drive, having drivelin.

And I like minis too, they are very fun to drive.

Dane is dressed as a lady killer.

Oh my.

Freddie here asking if I'm wearing a Dixon.

No, actually, I have a ton of Dixons.

This one, honestly, is just a cheapy one,

but I like the pattern, so I got it.

All right, moving along here, we've got Hydra saying

that 1,500 on the table is giving me Christmas vibes.

Well, we're a little early to that one, but don't worry.

We'll probably do something special

for Christmas this year too.

Yes, we will.

And maybe we will dress up for that one.

I'm thinking maybe I'm an elf.

Ho, ho, ho, am I right?

Ha, ha, ha, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.

Okay, next up.

Next up, moving along, oh no, Megan, don't encourage him.

Don't encourage him, oh no.

I too enjoy the dad jokes, Gabe, you do,

you do you know Shane.

Megan, you're my favorite.

Megan, no.

I love Megan.

I'm not okay.

Top fan right now.

Cool boy.

I'm not okay.

Oh man, okay, moving along.

Joey just wants to say that all men's joys go hard.

They do, the best.

Yeah.

Oh, Jeff C, I'm always excited to see Jeff C's questions

because he's very detailed.

This guy always gets very detail oriented.

Speaking of winter wheel washing,

I think I stumbled on a cheat code last spring.

Spray on crystal, crystal wash,

let dry, heavily foam on ADS clean at 10 to one,

scrub the tires and let the foam carry.

All the grime off the wheels,

then hero rinse is pre-soaked, contact wash and dry,

worked great.

It'll be, we'll be trying it again this winter.

Yep.

All right, we're getting a lot of candy bar talk

and then we've got Ricky Valencia here saying,

does TLC have any plans on creating their own line

of products aside from rags and towels,

soaps and coatings perhaps?

Ricky, that's, I would never say no.

Never, but it's also not really our wheelhouse

to be creating those things.

We're much better when it comes to discussing

with other brands and giving suggestions

on where they can take their product lines.

Sometimes they listen, sometimes they don't.

I'm gonna vouch for Anthony and say

he has extremely good ideas

and the smart companies listen to Anthony.

I don't think, well thanks, Dina.

That's quite the thing.

Thank you.

And I'm saying that with like a bit

of a loaded commentary

because there have been companies

that didn't listen to Anthony

and don't make me sound like I'm not,

not just a guy, giving some advice.

He's a smart guy.

That's so it's like, you better listen to my friend

kind of situation.

Well, it's mostly because I'm tired

of seeing people get like free advice

from this guy when it is actually extremely helpful

and would help them sell a better product.

And then they go, eh, no thanks,

we know what we're doing.

And then they go and do their own thing

that maybe is okay, but it could have been better.

And it wasn't.

Who knows?

Anyways, we have about a minute and a half left here

before the break and so get those entries in,

get those comments in.

Next question, Dane, we've got, boom.

Jeff C says, I was replying to Dan

who was asking about it,

doing it without a hose.

Gotcha.

Okay, that's the second thing.

Cool.

Smart sheep start wondering if we got

a couple of quarts of oil to go with the 350Z.

Last time the oil in this 350Z was replaced

was probably when it had a different owner.

Yeah, probably.

Probably.

One minute left here, get those questions in.

Gabriel, that is way too much of that stuff.

You are spraying a lot.

We've got a lot of chemicals in the air here.

I think you're wearing too much.

Don't worry so much.

Nope, we're just breathing in a lot of stuff.

Regarding the giveaway, Dan says he had trouble

seeing the giveaway link in the pinned comment

in case anyone else had issues.

Remember, you can click on the pinned comment,

it will unfold it, and that's where you'll see the link.

Okay, moving along.

Just in case you want to get in on a giveaway.

Kevin, months on here saying, go ahead.

Top two, water spot remover.

I have some in my hood.

I think it'll need to be polished,

but before that I want to try

with a bad water spot remover.

Thanks, I would try G-Technics WW9 water spot remover.

I would try there.

I would probably also try, you know,

FSE, right, from Coach Kemi.

It's a very minor water spot remover,

but it does a really good job.

Nice.

W9 seems to be the sweet spot.

So we've actually hit our halfway mark right now,

so we're about one hour in.

Yes, and Mango just wanted to throw in

that little comment of seeing a 350Z while owning one.

Very nice, chef's kiss.

So with that said, we are going to go to

a brief, scary commercial break, but have no fear,

because we're going to be back here in just a few minutes

to answer more of your D-Tons questions.

So in the meantime, enter the giveaway right now

because we still have several hundred dollars left

to give away.

So we'll see you in just a couple of minutes.

Hello, hello, hello, and welcome to the second half

of our special Halloween theme Q&A Thursday right here

at the Rag Company.

I'm your host, Dan Hennan.

To my left, Anthony Fisher.

Thanks for having me, Dan.

Absolutely.

Happy to be here.

Happy Q&A Freakin' Thursday.

We're here at the second half, where again,

we're probably going to answer more of your detailing questions.

And we've had a very fun time.

We've been drinking Slasher's Slope slash, I mean,

it's Red Powerade.

It also could be the blood of our enemies.

But we have that, which is going great.

We also have some Candied Corn here,

which is really disgusting, and we haven't really

been eating that at all because it's not very good,

and then over there in the wash bay,

we do have Gabriel Garcia, who has smoked out the place,

you lexed the place, and has essentially been causing

chemical warfare over on that side of the building.

That's why the fans were running.

I'm just doing my job.

A proper wash, as some might say.

Gotcha.

A proper one, indeed.

Yeah, very proper.

All right, we can probably turn off the fan now

for noise reasons, but I think having the door open

will help a lot.

Anthony, do you feel comfortable with that decision?

Correct, we can definitely do that, yeah.

So basically what we've done is we didn't realize

that we were actually mixing a cauldron of chemicals

because what we did is we had a smoke machine going,

which made the air quite dense.

And then after that, we actually started spraying water,

and then soap, and then eulogs was now in the air,

and then Gabe really finished it off

by spraying hyper seal in the air as well,

and then pressure washing it.

So what we had is a lot of stuff really kind of here,

which I don't know if we should have been

breathing that in, but it's not a good Friday night.

But we got the doors open now,

and we're feeling a little bit better.

So anyway, so here we are, we're excited to be back,

and Dan's gonna get some more of these questions going,

and we're gonna answer them.

Yes, we are, all right.

Let's bring those comments back up on the screen,

and actually, you know what?

I feel like we may be ready with another winner.

Ooh, really?

Yeah, it's funny.

I waited until the ads are over,

but actually, surprise.

It's happening again, oh, it's happening again.

Oh, here we go.

Let's see.

Michael Dones.

Michael Dones, Michael Dones, congratulations to Michael.

Our third winner.

That's right.

What's up?

Number three on the docket today,

our third $100 gift card winner of the day,

and there's still two more to go.

So we're gonna go ahead and give them a round of applause.

And they're still two more to go.

Yes, there is.

So if you haven't won yet, remember,

you still have two more opportunities

during these drawings where it could happen.

So you gotta stay tuned all the way

until the end of the show, if you haven't won already,

just in case, because you never, ever know.

All right, so coming back here to the comments,

we've got fine detailing Arizona.

That's Ryan saying, if you try fresh, not hard,

Candy Corn, it's delightful.

What do you say about that, Anthony?

No, none of it is.

That's just not true.

All the Candy Corn is pretty bad.

And it's really back and forth here in the comments.

It's just Jimba saying it's awful,

Mr. Mike saying it's elite, Joey just letting you know

that if you stuck Candy Corn in a ring shape formation

and build upward, it looks like an ear of corn.

I could see that.

Yeah, interesting.

Oh, stealth, as far as water spot removers.

Okay, yeah.

I've used Babes Spot Remover.

Works great in my business.

Nice, okay.

Yeah.

I'm sure, is it babes, boat, boat?

Babes boats?

I mean, that's babes boats.

Yeah, babes boats.

Yeah.

Boats babes, boat babes.

You know, kind of related to P&S.

Yeah.

Here we go.

The one here shall remain nameless.

Freddie says, what is everyone's favorite use

for the creature edgeless towels?

Got some of my mystery box

and not really sure how I feel about dual pile towels.

Ooh, I know what I like.

I like to use it for the polishing.

I'm chasing the camera.

I like to use it for polish.

Give you a seizure there, Freddie.

Honestly, for the polish wipe off,

I like to use one side short nap long nap,

short nap for my initials, long nap for my final.

The other area that I also like to use

the creature edgeless is the interior.

It's a great interior towel for different

various surfaces of the interior.

That's my answer.

Okay.

What about you, Anthony?

And I go to, gosh, pretty much so many different things, man.

They're one of the most useful towels creatures.

Probably just as much as, I mean, gosh,

the 365 creatures are probably

top five favorite towels for the creatures.

I use them for polish removal, compound removal,

coating removal, I use them for wax removal,

sealant removal, I use them for interiors.

I use them for, I mean, honestly,

creature is it.

I mean, creature, if you've, you're not sure about it,

but what's gonna happen is the longer pile,

the more plush pile is gonna be great

for all of your really delicate jobs out there, right?

Interiors, nav screens, gauge clusters, things like that.

You can also use it in really soft paint.

The shorter nap side is gonna give you that bite you need

when it comes to removing compounds, polishes.

And it also just feels good with spray sealants, right?

The shorter pile on that side just slides really well

with maybe like a nice quick detail or spray sealant.

Remember that time we had a Shelby GT350R

and we were working on the carbon fiber wheels

that that car came with and they were extremely finicky.

Like even towels that you would normally consider safer

for use on them, we're just not playing nice.

And then when it finally came time, we're like,

all right, fine, let's try a creature

and the creature was perfect for it.

It ended up being exactly right for when polishing

on those wheels and getting it to look

their absolute best.

So creatures really can do it all.

Yep, they're just awesome.

All right, moving along here,

I've got a question here from Beemos,

or Beemos, saying mobile setup,

stage three water restriction, what's your go-to setup?

Let's see, mobile setup, stage three,

what's your go-to setup?

They're just rinseless, man.

I mean, that's if you've got any type of water

restriction, rinseless is probably going to be

really your go-to.

It's at that point, right?

I mean, I don't know what stage three specifically means,

I'm not sure if that's a capture mat,

like at that level yet.

But I mean, if you were just at the point

where, hey, you're trying to use

the least amount of water as possible,

then you can pretty much wash any car

with about one bucket of water

and a little bit of rinseless wash.

I mean, that's from top to bottom.

Then I've got Wolfsburg here saying,

what about peeps?

Anyone, anyone?

Peeps are, to me, they're more of an Easter thing.

Peeps, wow.

Yeah, peeps that, yeah, as far as like candy stuff goes,

that's like Easter.

Not for Halloween.

I don't see anybody talking about them for Halloween.

So Wolfsburg, that might just be you,

but hey, you know what?

Whatever makes you happy, buddy.

Let's just say this,

there's no peeps talking about it.

What's up, fellas?

Classic detailing.

Yes, hello, classic detailing.

Welcome, Kevin.

All right, I love fireballs,

the cinnamon candy balls.

Yeah, I actually like those.

Those are all right.

And then more love for the wedding there,

the Halloween wedding.

That is really cool.

Happy for David.

And you could do so many cool things.

How good are your car wash towels?

Does it take multiple to dry a vehicle?

Well, the car wash towel specifically,

yeah, probably, it's a 16 by 27.

It's not a drying towel.

It's never been a drying towel.

People use it like one,

but it doesn't mean it was really,

it was designed for car wash businesses.

They're used as a touch up towel.

That's what they're used for, touch up.

You're spot drying with it.

They are not used for car drying.

I would get, they have 10 other towels I can think of

that are gonna be a better job for that.

Sure.

But if you're using an all purpose style towel,

they're a step up from that.

Couldn't get my slasher to foam that well.

1.5 ounces of soap and 500 mils of water

utilizing a 1.8 GPM Ryobi.

That's interesting.

Okay, well, what's that?

L's, 10 to one, 10 to one, 10 to one.

Yeah.

Okay.

So maybe you could, yeah, I mean.

Bump it up a little bit.

It's a pretty safe bet.

You could bump it if you wanna go crazy.

You could bump it to like two.

200 mils.

That's a lot.

Then I got DS here wondering, by the way,

are the ghost dusters still trapped in that box?

Yes.

Yeah, probably.

Yeah, that's why you haven't seen Levi real badly.

He's still stuck in the box.

Still stuck in there.

Anthony and I crawled out,

but Levi hasn't gotten out yet.

All right, more love for David's.

Yeah.

My aunt uncle got married on Halloween

and they had a big anniversary party every year.

Nice.

That's pretty cool.

Super fun.

That's fun.

Then I've got Kevin Meiser here saying,

I love the effort made for these lives,

just entered in the giveaway.

Nice.

He like hyphenates it out like that.

That's fun.

Then we got Hydra Detailing.

The 350Z has a love kiss at the side

from tandem drifting, AKA a dent.

I mean, what are you spraying on right now?

Anthony, here's the deal.

I'm not gonna tell you, so don't worry about it.

So here's the, I think that you're doing a little,

you're spraying quite a bit on this paint over here.

Anthony, I've seen you wash your truck.

Yeah.

I have seen you wash your truck.

You will empty out a full bottle of chemical on your truck.

What are you using right now?

Don't worry about it.

Are you using CTV4?

No, no.

It looks like CTV4.

Well, I think that's the Ulex talking.

Gotcha.

So here's what I saw you do.

I saw you use some hyper seal a minute ago.

No, no, no.

And now you're following the CTV4 and I'm like,

what is going on?

A lot of protection.

That's crazy.

That's a whole lot of protection.

That's crazy.

I don't know what he's planning on there, but.

I don't know what you're thinking.

All right.

Well, anyway, moving along, yes.

This is a drift car.

Yes, it belongs to Jimmy and it gets love.

All right.

Wondering from Hydra, Anthony,

what do you think of JDM stickers on JDM cars?

Do you like them?

Or do you prefer just the shiny paint?

Just paint.

No, no.

Anthony's an OEM plus kind of guy.

Yeah, I don't.

But when the car is already in the shape

that the Z was when Jimmy bought it,

the stickers are just kind of more character.

Yeah.

The car was not perfect when it was bought.

So no, Jimmy's not responsible

for the marks you see on it.

All right, next up, moving along,

let's see if we can find some actual.

Oh, what's this?

Yeah, so as far as protector wax,

they're reformulating.

That was last I heard.

Correct.

Then we've got, OK, back and forth.

Oh, picks them up in Idaho while at MVP detail supply.

Nice.

Then on to page three.

OK.

Can my dogs enter the giveaway?

Wonders, Jeff C.

Well, if they can't type their own name and email,

then I don't think they can enter.

That's the limitation we're going with here, I believe.

Well, Pyrdewax has stock everywhere.

I've been using Sterling Laboratories Superglow.

Works just as well.

And the price is really good.

$100 for five gallons.

That's a lot.

Five gallons is a lot of product.

Yeah.

Woof.

I must have gone through a lot.

I've never tried it.

So I'm not sure how that stuff works.

Garlic fry commentary.

Baseball garlic fries just hit differences, Joey.

They do.

They really do.

The blue line car detail.

The garlic fries and smell is iconic.

And someone who was born and raised in Washington state

as a Mariners fan, unreal.

Mm-hmm.

Nice.

All right, then we've got Blinsky.

It looks like you've ripped your last rag on the Viper

cart.

We have.

Indeed.

We have.

We have, yeah, we've got to get another roll on there.

Yep.

Oh, yeah.

There we go.

Sleepy Vert says, will guys be doing ceramic coating

with new OPT Hypershine coating?

It seems to have scratch-filling features.

And I would love to see that in action.

I don't mean to laugh, but I'm just imagining somebody going,

yeah, that'll fix that dent on the side.

I'm just going to spray it in here.

And magically, the metal appears flat again.

No, I don't.

That's not how that works.

I have been seeing.

So yeah, basically, you're the scratch-filling feature.

I wouldn't even call it scratch-filling.

I'd call it maybe Micromar filling features.

But it's very minimal.

Kind of level it out.

What's funny to me is I've been seeing

a lot of these little short-form videos popping up of people

totally getting taken advantage of by the parking lot dent

and, like, you know, dent repair guys, right?

OK.

So it's just been a scam that's gone for, like, years.

It's gone for, like, 20-something years.

We're basically.

Oh, so that's not new.

It's not new, but it's like it's

new that people are filming these guys now,

and it's kind of funny.

How it works is a person will go through a parking lot,

see somebody walking to their car from shopping, Costco,

or whatever, right?

And they go, hey, is that your car there?

And they go, yeah, it is.

Hey, I see you have some dents on your car, right?

I can fix those for you.

And they go, oh, you can?

And they go, yeah, I can fix the dents for you.

I can touch it up, make it look better.

I can fix your headlights for you, too.

I can do it for, like, 100 bucks.

And the person goes, what?

And they go, yeah, I'll do 100 bucks.

OK.

They go, yeah, go shopping, go do your thing, right?

And then come back, right?

Or they can even stay there, right?

And so what will happen is they will get out there.

They'll grab a suction tool, right?

And they'll go to one of the dents,

and they'll put the suction tool on there.

And they take a little hammer, and they

start kind of banging around the dent and the panel, right?

And they start talking to the customer, yeah,

I've been doing this for a long time.

I'll do this.

Yeah, so while I'm doing this, I'm going to finish this up.

Straight up just looks like they're doing PDR.

And maybe my buddy will come over here

and he'll finish the job.

And then I'll work on your headlights, right?

So the buddy comes over, and we'll

come over with a can of wax of some sort, right?

Just any type of paste wax that we'll haze over, right?

So any type of heavily solvent-based wax, right?

So we'll come over, apply the wax to the surface, right?

And then it gets all cloudy, and you can't see anything,

right?

And then the other guy is like, oh, so your headlights

here, really the only thing your headlight needs

is more clear coat, right?

So then they'll pull out a can of clear coat.

They'll kind of prep the surface really quick

and then spray clear coat over the top, right?

On a yellowed headlight?

Yeah.

And then they'll be like, oh, hey, well, also, too,

I can fix your bumper.

It's kind of sagging off a little bit.

Let me grab a screw.

So then they'll go grab a wood screw,

and then they'll zip up a screw into the bumper

and say, hey, it's on.

They're nice and tight now.

It's not going anywhere.

Person goes, wow, incredible.

Here's $100.

And they go, yep, so when you get home,

you're just going to take a towel

and buff off that wax over there,

and it'll look like brand new car again, right?

And so they do that.

They get home, buff it off, and they go, well,

all my dents are still there.

And my headlights now have overspray on everywhere.

I have clear coat all over the front of my hood,

and I have wood screws in my bumper, right?

And I paid them $100, right?

I could have all done all that for $5.

It's the craziest scam, but it's been going on forever.

And the reason why I bring it up,

this happened to my dad like 10 years ago.

Oh, OK.

Yeah, 10 years ago, he told me

that he got had in a Costco parking lot,

and this guy said the same thing.

Hey, I'll fix all these dents in your car for you.

Pulls out a can of wax.

Says, hey, the product is curing.

It'll help pull these dents out, right?

Yeah, because that's how science works.

Wait till you get home to buff it off, right?

By the time they get home to buff it off,

that guy's long gone, right?

And so it's a beautiful scam situation,

but it's just super unfortunate.

And zero follow-up.

Boy, that sucks.

Oh, yeah.

Sorry, I had to bring that up because I've

seen that pop up recently, like that scams going on again.

And it's just crazy that people are getting away with that,

because they're essentially ruining people's cars.

Hydro Detailing says, the moment serial killers

are watching this podcast, baths will be filled with Ulex.

Yes, they shouldn't be.

That would be terrible.

I mean, with any luck, it'll take out the serial killer

before it manages to get anybody else.

Yeah.

Anthony gave a Halloween detail question.

What are your three favorite blood removal products?

500 removal products.

How about the PNS carcass system?

Oh, yeah.

How about something good?

OK.

Between enzymatic Cleaner, right?

Using something like Terminator, and then

following up with the peroxide.

I mean, that should pretty much cover you there.

So yeah, I've also used, I mean, I'm trying to think,

blood, I don't know.

I've used random interior cleaners.

You have to find an enzymatic cleaner, right?

That's going to be good at breaking down

kind of organics like that.

Other tannins and whatnot.

But yeah, what we sell, like probably the PNS carpet

system will do that.

Definitely not for any other particular reasons, right, Hydra?

Definitely not, no.

OK, moving along.

No bleach, no bleach.

Todd Hill says, seeing a lot of cars with a lot of tar

on them, and then tar remover is not removing it.

What is the next step, next stronger step

if tar remover isn't removing it?

Like what does that, the brand?

So if tar remover isn't removing the tar, then, I mean,

like basically, if you're saying it's not melting in,

it's not coming off in its first pass, that's usually

when I'm like, I will soften it up with the tar remover,

and then I will use a plastic razor blade.

I will, you know, I'll basically I'll try picking at it,

trying to remove it.

If it's, if it is a physical object sitting

on the surface of clear coat, that's fixable.

That's doable, right?

If it's in the clear or the staining is not coming

out of the clear, that's a little bit more of a problem

and that's when you're going to have to jump

into polishing, compounding to try to improve it.

I don't think he's referring to any like specific

tar remover product, he's just saying tar remover

products in general.

Yeah, that's why I was asking.

Keep going, keep going, I mean.

Clay, razor blades, scrapers, I mean, you got to get it off.

Yeah.

Well, you could do the Levi method, too.

Lacquer thinner?

Lacquer thinner, I guess.

Yeah, but I think even some of our tar movers

are going to be stronger than,

yeah, you look pretty strong.

So like of the, like the coach stuff,

you would go Ulex, step down T, step down orange.

So Ulex, if Ulex doesn't do it, yeah, I don't know.

I think, I think Ulex is, I honestly,

I think that was the best one for that kind of stuff.

I've literally washed a vehicle with Ulex.

Don't recommend doing that.

But I did that on a, on that Raptor video.

Wear a mask or something.

I did it on my friend's Raptor where she had tarred.

It was like the worst tarred.

It was like, but it was melting it off.

It was great.

Yeah, no, there was a lot on that thing.

That was bad.

Before I go to the next comment,

I just want to remind people we still got

more giveaways happening here until the end of the show.

So there are still a couple left.

So if you haven't entered yet,

all you have to do is enter once

and you're in the running to win one of those last two

unless you've already won.

All right, next up, we got Hydra detailing here.

Halloween detail question for Gabe and Anthony.

What's the one nightmare detail you won't forget

and what product slash towel saved you and or the car?

I think I remember Anthony's.

You want to go first?

Exhaust.

On a certain Subaru.

Oh yeah, but that was a detailing I remember.

There wasn't really any product that saved me.

My worst one was a Diller car

and on the inside, I had to take out the seats.

I typically don't do, but there was melted candy.

Ooh.

And then on the outside,

the car had been sitting underneath the tree.

So there was big,

there was a lot of sap

and I'm talking like large sap dots that wouldn't come off.

And on that situation,

it was utilizing Ulex for the exterior.

For the interior, I threw everything at it.

The steamer helped with obviously the carpet system

is what I typically do for the interior on that case.

But the other issue that I had to was on the cloth seats

was every time I'd cleaned a stain

and I didn't have an extractor,

the stain would come back up.

So that's where Levi taught me utilize a twist loop towel,

you know, like a 1500 or a liquidator

and let it sit on the top of the seat

because what you end up doing is

people try to do extractors and stuff like that,

but you're cleaning the foam at that point.

So if it gets so saturated,

the foam is pushing all of that stuff back up into the cloth.

So there was just little tips and tricks

that I had to learn there,

but it was not, I guess it was technique.

A lot of it was technique mixed with products, essentially.

But that was kind of an example of a-

Yeah, a lot of detailing ends up being.

Yeah, really terrible job that I had to do on that one.

How about you Anthony?

I don't know.

I mean, I don't really have like any

particular like nightmare nightmares,

but I mean, I've had always had situations,

but I would say that, you know,

I'll give last cut a shout out,

that's been a compound that saved me

on a lot of cars that have been really difficult

or, you know, it's just been a compound that,

how do I say this?

It was one of the first compounds that I used

that was a massive step up above the industry standards

at that time, which, you know,

we're still continuing to be

when a 105 and 205 from McGuire's

and finding last cut was like an absolute lifesaver.

When it came to like not just one car,

but like 10 different cars that I can think of,

you know, that was around that time.

And since then, last cut has still remained

one of the best, you know,

compounds for automotive detailing out there.

It works really, really well.

Oh, you found the U-Looks cap.

Thank you.

With that then, I put it outside.

I put it outside because the fumes were crazy.

Jablinsky, Joey saying,

imagine the jokes Gabe was making

riding on that stage in that Subaru in Monterey.

I'm surprised he wasn't kicked out of the car.

Now, I am a little jealous that

Gabe got to ride in one of my all-time dream cars.

That was the worst.

Carson was the most mad at me.

It was like, cause Carson was at Monterey

to give everybody context.

He's a Subaru guy.

Yeah, he's a Subaru guy.

Half of us ended up doing like these

dealership, not dealership, these auction cars, right?

But they're rare auction cars.

They are so expensive.

Not normal rare, really rare.

Really rare.

And Carson and I were walking around

and we saw the Subaru.

Dane, what's the Subaru?

It's a 22B.

The most special Impreza WX STI that ever existed.

We were talking about it

and I really loved that car too.

Most are a dime a dozen, but not the 22B.

So Carson went to the other part of the show

and I stayed with the auction cars

and I actually asked the owner if I could ride in it

and they're like, yeah, jump on in.

And these guys filmed it

and Carson saw it through our group text message.

And when the vans came back,

it was like showing up home late to an angry wife.

That's how it was.

Carson was so angry at me.

But yeah, that's the story.

Well, that's great.

Also, Joey here to pop in and tell Anthony

that the name he was thinking of was Rayon.

Rayon, there it was.

Rayon heads, yes.

Rayon.

And then she started trying to be confusing

by saying spandex.

Oh, wait a second.

Wait a second, hold on.

Oh no, not another one.

Has this happened enough already?

All the humanity.

So much blood.

Blood.

We can't keep doing this.

We just keep hurting people.

I don't know the ransom note.

Oh no.

Who is Alex Hodge?

Alex Hodge.

Holy smokes, Alex.

Only $100 left to go.

That's right.

Dun dun dun.

Congrats, Alex, on the $100 TRCK card.

That's awesome.

That is freaking amazing.

Will be the next random winner.

All right.

Why do you say like that?

I mean, he's excited.

The very end of the show will reveal the final winner.

The final killing.

I mean, the final winner, yes.

I mean, yes, yes, that's not what you want.

This isn't that kind of lottery.

This isn't, well, this isn't mid-summer or anything.

Next up.

Anyway, moving along, I've got,

Jesse says, I got my bottle of slasher soap

with my first ever mystery box last night.

Smells awesome.

I saw some rumors about another special edition

holiday product, hoping there'll be more stock of that one.

Who's been spilling rumors of another

special edition product?

Who's, dun dun duns.

How'd you hear about that?

Okay.

Yeah, no, no, don't be saying anything.

No, I'm surprised.

Nothing.

Okay.

Somebody's spilling a little tea

and that's okay because, you know,

I think more will be revealed maybe next week.

Dun dun dun.

Maybe, okay, we'll keep that in mind.

Now remember, there's one winner left

in our giveaways today.

Could be you, make sure if you haven't already,

enter using the QR code there

or using the link in the pinned comment

at the top of our chat.

Just click on that, open it up and follow the link.

All right, next up, I've got Alex saying,

I'll be in a car with Gabe all day.

No issues there.

Oh, that's nice.

Heck yeah.

Hydra is a side of Dane getting foamed in a Santa suit.

I hope not.

Oh, that'd be hilarious.

No, I've already been foamed before.

Levi managed to escape this place

never having been foamed.

I don't know how that happened.

Callie Carlos says,

really enjoying the Halloween themed live,

always fun and informative.

If this has already covered my apologies,

but any hints at upcoming collaborations

or seasonal releases from the RAD Company.

Oh man, Seema.

You're just gonna have to hold your breath

until next week. There will be some more seasonal releases

here at the RAD Company for sure.

But yeah, you might find out about one next week,

which will be pretty exciting.

And then there's gonna be plenty more stuff coming.

So yeah, just know the next couple months

are going to be exciting.

Exciting, big, big.

All right.

Then we got Honda FE23.

Good evening, bros.

Punch it, saying I'm staying New York.

That's where he's from.

Awesome, nice.

And Rebecca Gonzalez here saying,

did we miss the giveaways?

Nope, there's still one left.

We've been doing them throughout the show.

Five separate occasions for them have already happened,

but there is one left.

So if you haven't entered already,

remember, follow that link in the pinned comment

or use QR code on your screen

if you're watching on TV or something right now.

All right, then I move on to the next page.

We are, oh yes, okay, we are at that page.

Yes, super auto here.

Al, always popping in late with the better late than never.

Howdy, guys and gals.

Happy to have you here, bud.

And then I've got Michael DeBlau here saying,

what's the best glass pad to use a clarity cream?

Okay, so pad for glass.

So for clarity cream, you'll use,

I mean, buff and shine, foam pads.

You can use yellow, you can use maroon,

you can use blueberry.

You can also use a wool pad, a microfiber pad.

Really, any pad will do great with clarity cream.

It's just the degree of the cut

that you're looking for on that glass.

And so if you're dealing with heavier water spots,

obviously, wool or microfiber

is gonna be probably the best choice.

If you're dealing with just some light refinement,

then really any foam of any variety will be fine.

You just don't wanna go with a really fine one

because it's just not gonna have enough power to cut.

Okay, next up, I've got Jesse Grease here.

Says CSL XO V5 or ADS Pro coating.

What do you think is more slick gloss ease of use?

Man, they're both are great combos.

CSL and XO, tried and true.

Roughly a five year combo, very slick.

ADS Pro, very slick, glossy.

I have had it on the truck now for,

what's it been like, four months?

It's pretty tough, isn't it?

How long has it been, four months?

We did it in June.

June, yeah, June.

So it's been four months on the truck.

It still has the behavior of a brand new coated truck.

I have no contamination on it.

I cannot feel any changes underneath a wash pad

or a drying towel and my lowers, my,

I mean, I'm not just gassing it up.

I'm just saying I have felt other coatings

that are more clogged than this one

would be at this time frame.

So I'm really impressed with how well

the coating has been not just performing,

but how well it continues to feel.

Now I am washing the truck once to twice a month.

So really I only have about,

I would probably estimate six washes in total

under my belt since the truck's been coated,

but I also think that speaks volumes that my truck

is still staying clean for weeks at a time

without really any major noticeable dirt buildup.

And so I am also using Amplify as a following topper

with almost every wash.

So that's also been helpful.

All right, next up, Lucas Hoodic here saying,

hi guys, finally managed not to fall asleep before 10 p.m.

Sending love from Slovakia to Idaho.

Nice, thank you, Lucas.

Appreciate you chiming in.

We love when our international audience chimes in.

Feels great.

Just being an international brand like that is really cool.

I'd love to see you on here.

Glass pad van, glass pad,

Vangie technique of, okay,

I don't even know what that says.

I don't even speak that.

There you go.

Planning to buy KCRW is his first house absolute.

Yes, all the things.

Yep.

You're good to go with that stuff.

If you haven't tried it yet, please do.

It's worth it.

All right.

Rest in peace Troy.

His shirt was so colorful.

Indeed it was.

That was back during the ads.

DS, I'm gonna say IK Mickey Thompson headless horseman.

Yeah.

Mickey Thompson.

Cracks me up every time.

I don't know how that happened.

So funny.

They're saying make it timeless in the song,

but everybody's just like, no, they're saying Mickey Thompson.

Is it Mickey Thompson or Thomas?

Oh man.

Wow, Rebecca.

Whoa, let me get that again.

Rebecca says she got all four mystery boxes.

Oh, no way, congrats.

I'm gonna give you this.

I'm gonna give you a clap for that.

You got the whole set.

That's awesome.

Congratulations.

That's way cool.

All right, thank you, Rebecca.

Next up, how long does it take

to review a request to join the business program

by company's launch and sent a request last week?

Josh Brodle has been out for the last week.

He's got married.

So he is catching up on all those requests.

So I would expect.

He was working hard today, I saw him.

Yeah, I would expect to probably hear something soon.

Yeah, he will also be at SEMA next week.

So just FYI, he may be trying to work on that

as well, but if you don't hear back then

that may be the case.

We're hoping we can stay on top of these things.

That's true.

Next up, I got Lucas.

Want to try reactivation shampoo from KCX.

We do.

I think it's a great product.

I do think that because it's such a low pH soap,

it is gonna have its place in a lineup.

But it's not going to be a product

that you're using all the time.

And I'm just being honest.

Unless you're a pro and you're dealing with garbage cars,

just constantly.

It's not a weekly wash on your own personal vehicles.

If you're running a shop, it's going to be a situation

where you're wanting to treat a car with a very low pH,

or you're trying to maybe restore

some hydrofolic behavior of a coating.

And so reactivation shampoo will work on a handful

of coated cars if the coating responds well

to more of an acidic-based wash

to try to essentially shock the coating back to working.

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

I do think though that in general, it's a really good soap.

And I think it has a very good effective cleaning power.

And it works even better too

if you do have some mineral buildup on the vehicle

and you're trying to knock that down

on the paint, on the glass, on the plastics.

It does a good job.

All right.

Then I've got Lucas here saying,

many ceramic sealants state 24 hours avoid water.

Do you think moisture setting down on the surface

during the night will harm this curing process?

Say like morning dew, that kind of stuff.

Evening dew.

I think they're saying avoid water, like in terms

like avoid probably washing the car,

probably avoid hosing it down.

I think that morning dew, I think that's gonna happen.

I think do the dew, right?

Stuff's gonna happen no matter what.

So you really can't avoid that.

I do think that in general sealants,

the best time to apply a sealant really

is probably before the dew really hits.

So early fall, late spring,

it was a good time to do that kind of stuff.

But no, I wouldn't be super worried about it.

I'd be more worried like if it was like you did a spray

sealant and then you took it to a dealership

and then they washed it without you knowing.

That's the problem.

There you go.

Not a little bit of dew.

Yeah, like soap and water and all that stuff.

That's gonna totally be a different animal.

Joshua McKay here.

Hi all, I made it for the fun half.

And we're glad you did Joshua,

which by the way, if you haven't already,

use that little QR code there

or the link to the pinned comment

at the top of the chat to enter

for the last of our five giveaways we've been doing.

20 more minutes left here on the show.

The last one will appear at the end of the show

so you do have a chance if you haven't already,

get in there.

All right, Carl, it's a lover hate thing

with candy corn.

Mostly hate.

Neil, he loves those Z-cars from Nissan.

What happened to the passenger door?

Yeah, the takeover event.

Yeah.

I think he was whipping it a little bit too hard

and he whipped it into somebody

and they were pretty dense and low.

Yeah.

A little spit shine, can't take care of.

All right.

Then we've got, oh.

Take it to those bros who will put some wax on it

and maybe it'll, candy corn plus dryers,

peanuts equals payday in your mouth,

so good, that's probably the only way to do it.

Okay, I can kind of see something like that.

Hydra weighing in on the creatures.

Creature is just my favorite polish removal towel

and for sealants and door jams,

if you don't like fluffy 500s,

the creature edges is your weapon, agreed.

All right.

Ooh, now I got to weigh in from Charleston

on the candy corn debate.

Thank you, Charleston.

Any candy corn is awful, I agree, Anthony.

Also looking forward to the new releases during SEMA.

Any hints?

Oh boy.

Oh man, Eric, I can't give you any hints.

I mean, I can, but I can't.

It's too big a deal for us to hint at it,

because as soon as we hint, it'll.

Really good, like, blatant hint.

So if you want to look for the hint.

Gabriel, I get very afraid when you talk.

Yeah, I'm so afraid of what he might say.

Dean just let the biggest sigh out.

He was like, because I know how to get it close

to the Gabriel thing without actually saying the thing.

I'm afraid of what you might say.

I'm just saying what I know you know.

Okay, well, yes, we all know the same thing.

But I know what you know, what you said you knew

early on in the show.

That's all I'm saying.

And what I'm gonna say here that I do know

is that it is a project that has been worked on

for years at this point.

So it's kind of a big deal.

And I'll leave it at that.

It's gonna be fun.

Should be.

All right, next up here.

Big reveal at SEMA.

We have Vealside.

Well, we got all the 350Z bros coming in the chat, man.

It's awesome.

Is a 350Z damage on the passenger side?

I kept thinking it was some weird reflection

after several, yes, it is in fact damaged.

Oh no, look at the thumbnail for this.

I very much enhanced how dented and bad it looked on purpose.

It is.

Don't worry, Jimmy is making it,

I would imagine his life's goal right now

to get this 350Z cleaned up.

He loves this car and for the record,

Jimmy's not the one who put that dent in the door.

It was there when he bought it.

And because it was there when he bought it,

he got a very good deal on it.

He blown motor didn't it too?

Yeah, he actually had to do like a full motor repair.

He did a motor swap on it, he's in a bunch of stuff.

Did he do a full swap?

I thought he just said to fix the one that was in it.

No, no, that was Gens.

Okay, yeah.

He's already done a lot on this car.

Yeah.

All right, well, moving along here,

best smelling chemicals besides P&S bead maker.

That's what Gibby Tube wants to know.

That's tough.

That's pretty awesome.

GSF Coach Kemi.

I love GSF.

Oh, great smelling product.

GSF Coach Kemi, Amplify from ADS.

The original O&R smell.

Love the original O&R smell, awesome.

I'm also weirdly a big fan of Tri-Clean from G-Technic.

Even though it's just a clean scent, I really like it.

Tri-Clean, interesting.

Optimum O&R, always gonna be a standout product.

There's a lot of good smelling products, man.

I mean, if you do like smells, I do say,

I think that the ADS line's a good place to dip into.

KCX also does a really good job.

I also know you happen to love Adam's Detail Spray,

or at least historically.

I do love Adam.

I do like to meet some Adam's Detail Spray.

I personally don't care for that particular scent.

For whatever reason, it's just a little too.

I get to hit every once in a while, just to, you know,

just a little bit, just the tip.

Okay.

Just see what it feels like, what?

Weird.

I didn't say anything.

Neil here saying, my favorite candy is Butterfinger

and Mr. Goodbar.

Mr. Goodbar, Neil, I am with you on that.

I don't know how a crunch bar tastes like

such trash compared to Mr. Goodbar.

Mr. Goodbar is great.

Mr. Goodbar is Hershey, right?

It's technically a Hershey.

I think it's Hershey because the form factor

is very close to Hershey's chocolate.

It's technically a Hershey with peanuts.

Am I correcting that?

I think you're the ballpark.

But a Mr. Goodbar is delicious.

I never, ever see somebody buying a full-size Mr. Goodbar

because I'm pretty sure they're serial killers,

but they are very good.

Butterfinger.

I love Butterfinger.

Butterfinger, it just reminds me of Bart Simpson,

and I don't know why.

You're thinking of Butterfinger BBs.

No, I remember the Simpson ad with Butterfinger.

Bart Simpson was all about the Butterfinger BBs, though.

No, he's just about Butterfingers.

Yeah, but specifically, all the ads with him

really focused on the BBs.

I don't know what you're talking about.

OK, so anyway, for those with 90s brains,

I do think that Butterfingers are way too sweet.

And honestly, they're almost impossible to eat.

I love them, but the last time I had one

was probably three or four years ago.

I don't know how they're not more calorie-dense than they are.

Those should have like 3,000 calories per bar.

It's fine by me.

I think they're lying to us.

It's just, unless you're an Olympic swimmer,

you shouldn't be eating this.

Do you know what I like?

That's really, actually, most people think

it's really gross.

Really, really gross.

What are you about to say?

I'm not going to lie, dude.

I'm a big old fan of Biddo Honey.

Biddo Honey's, oh my gosh.

I love those.

I could have like seven of them in my mouth,

and I'm just chewing them.

Biddo Honey, dude, it's so good.

Man.

So good.

Stealth here, thinking 3D, Final Touch, Slash Yourself

from ADS, B&S Web, just a few I've been loving.

I also love Absolut.

Nice.

OK, we've got.

Would you say, what would you say is the most durable,

consumer grade ceramic coating that you sell,

best protection, and beading for a vehicle that barely

gets washed or goes through car washes?

The protection and the behavior you're

going to find actually differ.

Like, if you're trying to get the best beading,

that's going to be one type of coating.

If you're trying to get the best protection, long term,

that can differ.

I know you've definitely run into this before.

Hopper would kind of give you both the best, both

of the two worlds.

Yeah, if you talk to one.

Like Stout and Defender, great combination

for both water behavior and protection.

For armor, you've got Pro, and you've got Amplify.

Or do you have SiO2, ceramic SiO2 as well?

Or the classic with CSL-XO.

Or CSL-XO.

So I think it's kind of a two-cut combo for most brands.

Essentially, if you're looking to achieve

the dual function of protection and water behavior.

Because that topper is going to give you the water

behavior you're looking for.

But the coating that you have underneath it

is where you're going to get that actual protection that's

meant to last for a much longer time.

Agreed.

Yeah.

Yeah, the question that you have here.

He's trying to get it all in one.

I understand what he's looking for.

There's so many variables, right?

I know what you're asking, and I know why you're asking it.

The vehicle is going on.

You want the best for a car that

gets very well taken care of.

That's what you want.

You want the best coating for your baby

that you know is going to be well taken care of.

That's exactly what you want.

What I can tell you is that all of the coatings

that we sell will give you what you're looking for.

They will.

But each coating will have slight differences in it, right?

Maybe some coatings are really, really slick, right?

But they could be on the softer side,

meaning that they might have some micro-marring.

Now, does that mean the coating is going away

after you've washed it a few times?

No, it just means that maybe the coating is a little bit

softer.

It's a little more susceptible to some really finite stuff.

Then there's some other coatings

that we have that are really more hardy.

They're more durable, right?

But maybe they clog easier, right?

And maybe you go, oh, well, it's on there,

but now it's clogged.

And now I'm not really seeing the water behavior

that I'm hoping to see.

So what do I do then, right?

So what I would say is to probably watch several videos

at the Radcom YouTube channel going over each coating

that you're possibly interested, CSL and XO,

go over Stout and maybe some Defender,

go over the new ADS Pro, and then probably make

your decision that way.

But I can't shift you towards any one

because they all have their pros and cons,

and no coating is perfect.

But I think that hopefully answers the question.

OK, yeah.

And we do have three pages to get through in less than 10 minutes.

Let's see what we can do.

That's not possible, Dane.

That's what I'm saying.

Let's just see what we can do.

You know.

All right, hey guys, Ernest here.

Best method and product in your experience

for heavy interior windshield film with no streaking.

So you get off-gassing maybe from your dashboard,

something like that, the plastics.

What are you going to?

What are you cutting through, that film

on the inside of your windshield?

Yeah, you just, you can use a lot of different things.

I mean, you can even cut through that initial film

with an interior cleaner and then follow up

with a glass cleaner if you want to do it that way.

What it is is most of the time that film there

really gets pushed around by your initial cleaning method.

So you'll take a little bit of glass cleaner

and then you'll take your whatever towel you're using

and you don't really use a whole lot

because you're thinking, I kind of want it to be streak-free

and I don't want to leave streaks in this, right?

Well, if you have a film, the goal is to remove the film.

Once the film is removed,

that's when you focus on the streak-free finish.

So what Levi would do back in the day

is he'd take a towel that is either soaked

in something like a rinse-less wash, right?

Like literally a wet towel, wrap it around a tool

or take his hand and get the film off.

You are just rubbing to remove that.

And then at that point, yeah, your windshield's wet,

it's all streaky, right?

Yeah.

Cool.

We'll take an additional towel, take a good glass cleaner

that has a good flash off, and then clean the windshield.

You can almost hit it with a brush.

And then now, and then now you are done.

And then you can move on.

But that's kind of how that works.

All right, Dane, you might want to bounce around

through a couple of pages to try to see if we can...

Let me try and hit a few more here.

We've got, oh, this is funny.

David's actually asking you,

Gabe, I'm going to have you answer this one.

Yeah.

He wonders if you've tried C2-V4 yet.

Yes, I did use it on parts of this vehicle.

It works great, honestly, yeah.

And then we've got that. Yeah, I don't have any, yeah.

Oh, no, I was like, which question?

Okay, I've got a few here.

Oh, whoa, this is kind of crazy.

I mean, we like the Crenzla.

Well, seriously, I really enjoy

still pressure wash, maybe design your own.

Who knows?

Never, but it's not in the plans.

Not likely.

Yeah.

Right now.

All right.

Is Tier C hosting any events, trainings in the future?

Not saying no.

We do have some trainings and events.

We do have an events page at the ridecompany.com

that you can check out.

A calendar.

I don't think that there's anything detailing specific

coming up anytime soon.

No.

But we do plan on probably getting some on the calendar

here probably next year.

I do think there is a Buffinshine class

coming up though at MVP.

Cool.

Stay tuned.

I'm working on updating the events calendar right now

as soon as I get dates for those.

So yeah, stay tuned for the events calendar

on the ride company website.

We'll start filling those up probably around December

for the 2026 year.

Okay.

What else we got, Dane?

Then I've got Mack here.

Can't wait for the G-Technique Boxing Day

blood sausage scented iron remover.

I mean, that's one way to get rid of

iron remover smell, I guess.

Absolutely distressing.

That is gnarly.

A really rare Subaru auction car is one

that drives onto the stage under its own power.

That's 100% true.

Good issues.

Joey Carson literally stopped speaking to Gabe

after that Subaru incident.

He did.

Joey gave him a good talking to, too.

Yeah.

Wow.

Well fatherly talking to him.

You got to live his dream.

Sydney even weighed in here.

Sydney says that was the best part of Monterey.

And when I said thanks for the make-a-wish

and the driver legit thought we were doing that for Gabe.

Oh no.

Holy crap.

I'd be really curious to hear what that guy thought.

Did you have to act any different in that car?

The thing is, is his interpretation of make-a-wish

I think was inaccurate based off

of how he was talking to me.

It was.

Let's go to the next question, Dane.

I probably should.

Jeff C here.

Oh.

Was great to hear you guys on the Detail Solutions podcast

with Alex.

For those wondering, there may be some SEMA hints in there.

Interesting.

So we did do that recently.

If you're looking for it, you can go find that interview

with Anthony and I on the Detail Solutions podcast.

I know we're cupping up.

We literally like four days away from like a big old can

of beans being spilled.

So much big stuff coming out.

You guys just got to wait a few days, OK?

Thursday falling like you said.

I'm nervous.

You know what it feels like?

It's literally a massive reveal.

It feels like it feels like it feels like it

feels like when you've been painting like a painting for

like a long time.

Right, you've been like an artist and you're painting

and you're doing this.

And then you're like, you're like, man, you know,

I think I'm really happy with this, right?

And then you kind of say that internally

and you say it to a friend and that friend goes,

hey, I'm signing up for an art show.

And then they go, I'm signing up for an art show.

And you go, oh, oh, wow, I never really thought about that.

And then they go, it's going to be revealed to everybody.

It's really good.

You've got to show everybody.

I feel like that's kind of how we feel right now.

And so we're doing this big kind of reveal.

And I really hope it's.

I hope people understand what a big deal it is for us.

I think it's going to be fine.

I really do.

Cool.

I garage my car overnight.

Then do a second, then do a second coat of spray sealant

for a nice, OK, cool.

Cool.

Cool, Jimbo.

I want a good sealant for my.

Lil Dan says I want a good sealant for maintenance clients.

So a good sealant.

Man, a bead maker, Defender.

Actually, Defender's probably one of your best.

Go with Defender.

My goodness, Dane, you're going through those comments now.

Next Dane, you're going to Defender from P&S.

Try it out.

Good stuff.

Candy Corners Trash.

I'd rather spend the night in Emmett.

Holy crap, that's quite the claim.

And Emmett's pretty bad.

So yeah, that's.

Oh, man.

Mr. Goodbar is a sleeper.

Yeah, it is.

OK, then I got Sandro here wondering,

would a regular coating work on an ATV?

If so, which one do you guys recommend?

Most regular coatings will work on an ATV.

I try to get the coatings, get the plastics coded

with a very universal finish.

Make sure you're getting equal coverage and everything.

You can really use any of the coatings that we sell.

Nice.

And then I've got Hydra mentioning

the Black Diamond Glass Towels.

Really grab and clean the best on glass, in my opinion.

To dry on the inside, I prefer a waffle because it's smoother.

Nice.

Yeah, yeah.

That works.

Hydra.

David Cervantes here saying, thanks for the great live,

guys.

It was nice to finally be able to catch one again.

Have a great weekend and a happy Halloween.

Hey, thanks, David.

Thank you.

Absolutely.

And then I got Jimbo here saying Wet Magic Eraser.

That's going to be, that's going to be cutting.

I'm assuming you're still talking about work on glass.

That seems a little intense.

Magic on glass cleaning, on film?

Is that what he's saying?

Yeah, I think that's what he's talking about.

Or unless it was back on the paint.

You could do that.

Magic Eraser, I'm not going to hurt anything.

Then we've got, don't lay a finger on my butterfingers,

says Neil, Bart Simpson.

Then Sydney also saying, yes, Hershey makes Mr. Goodbar.

I love all candy, but you haven't lived

if you haven't had nerd gummies in a blue bag.

I've never had nerd gummies, only nerd clusters.

You've never had nerd gummies?

It sounds like a cluster.

Sydney, can you bring some on the flight?

Is she flying down with us?

She will be there, I'm sure.

But I don't think she's going down with us.

Ooh, ow, really kicking it old school.

Anthony, did you ever coat the GT aggressor?

I did, I did coat that.

It is now sitting in my storage unit

as I've moved it to that.

I need to probably bust that out

and start using it a little bit more,

but yeah, I did coat it.

That is coated in XOV5.

All right.

Then I've got Freddie asking the real questions.

How's things going with bringing on built hamper?

Slow, slow, very slow, like molasses.

Too slow, too slow.

Not for lack of trying.

What ultra clay products should I buy

if I was to get two to start?

Get the ultra clay scrubbers and the ultra clay towel.

Hmm.

Jimbo.

Or even the Met.

Anyone remember Mary Jane's,

they're tasty, my grandfather was a fan.

That's not, that's not a euphemism.

That's their actual candy called Mary Jane's,

because that would be different.

Yes.

Okay.

Almost one minute left there.

Now, Ryan Rigdon here wishing us a safe trip.

Thanks, man.

Appreciate it.

Excellent, and I'll go back a page or two

to see if there were any good ones I missed here.

Whoop, can't do that.

Alex wanted to say that candy corn is trash.

Okay, you already did that one.

Yeah, we did that one.

We have more commentary on good smelling products,

including Absolute, GFX, et cetera.

All right, my Dean, we're coming to a close here.

I think we are, but the whole reason

we're running down the clock here

is because there's still one more.

What?

What, there's still, wait, wait.

That's right.

Okay.

We're not done yet.

There's one more killer on the loose.

Oh no.

Oh my goodness.

It's happening.

You guys, we're about to find who the last victim

slash winner was.

Oh no.

Okay.

So much blood.

Are you ready?

Oh boy.

Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun.

Oh boy, who is it?

Who is it?

Oh no, it's the burn book.

I mean, the giveaway winner.

Michael!

Oh, congratulations, Michael.

You, sir, are the final recipient

of this wonderful Q&A's giveaway prizes.

That is a $100 gift card to TRC.

Congratulations, you guys.

That's awesome.

That's pretty awesome.

This has been a very, very fun holiday.

How will it day?

Special.

How will it day?

The ulex is still in my brain.

But we want to thank the entire team

for setting the set here.

That includes Glenn, Nick, Seabass, Gabriel

for jumping over in the wash bay

and helping with that.

This is the kind of stuff that makes this fun

and also Shane on the backend

for obviously getting this giveaway going.

So we have a ton of fun doing this.

We enjoy the holidays

and we obviously enjoy having awesome sales as well.

So theragcompany.com,

you can still pick up the mystery box

as it sits right now.

They are still available.

They are $79.99.

They give you about $150 worth of products inside them.

Four varieties, no, we won't tell you which one is best.

That's for you to find out for yourself.

Only a little time left though.

Little time left, right?

And here in the next couple of days we'll be at SEMA.

So just to recap that,

this will be the last Q&A for this obviously week

and then we'll be gone at SEMA week,

which is gonna be exciting.

We will be going live.

You'll be able to catch us there.

And outside of that, Dane,

I mean, what do you have to leave them with besides that?

I mean, I'm gonna say like you just said, the show.

SEMA show happening next week.

We are going to be streaming

every one of the days of the show,

which doesn't include Monday,

but that means Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.

We are gonna have a morning stream for you.

Now, granted,

that's morning where we're gonna be located.

It's like 10, 11 a.m.

depending on the stream and what's happening.

And just measure that accordingly

with where you're located if you're on the East Coast.

But we will make those streams available to click

and turn on notifications for very soon here

in the next day or two.

You'll see those appear here

on the RAG Company YouTube channel.

So I wanna make sure that you guys get in on that

so you don't miss it.

When we do the massive TRC reveals,

all that awesome stuff is just around the corner.

We can finally talk about things.

I'm dying to tell you guys,

but until that happens,

I want you to have a wonderful weekend

and we'll catch up with you on the next one.

See you.

Thanks guys.

Happy Halloween.

Thank you.
