Step Inside: Hokusai's Ukiyo-e Prints
Hokusai’s prints — as you’ve never seen them before. Katsushika Hokusai was born in 1760 under the gaze of the snow-capped peak of Mount Fuji in Japan’s capital, Edo — at the time the world’s largest city, and the precursor to modern-day Tokyo. He changed his name no fewer than 30 times during his life, altering his artistic style with each new persona. He also famously declared that he would live until the age of 110. Scholars argue that his work reached its peak when he was in his 70s and 80s. Find out more: https://ift.tt/2qyII1f

Quick Tip on KITT - One Step Interior Detail! - Chemical Guys
Today in the Detail Garage we have a special car, err… a special Knight Automated Roving Robot! KITT sure has had its share of adventures with Michael Knight and has become the iconic show car of the 80’s. Since retirement, KITT spends his time being exhibited a various car shows around the country and is regularly detailed and lovingly cared for by Franco the Frenchman. However, that doesn’t mean that he’s immune to dust and dirt! Even sitting the in the garage, KITT collects a light layer of dust and debris in his interior that needs to be wiped down periodically before attending a car show or just being driven. KITT has the potential to be a detailer’s nightmare with countless gauges, buttons, lights, cracks, and crevices. KITT’s dash looks more like the cabin of an airliner than a car!! The untrained detailer might use multiple products to clean the variety of surfaces in KITT: one for the screens, one for the dash, one for the gauges, etc, and quickly become overwhelmed with a multiplicity of different cleaning products. Luckily, Nick has Chemical Guys Innerclean in his detailing arsenal: the one amazing product that will clean all those different surfaces at once! The versatility of Innerclean is perfect for maintaining KITT as it can be used on virtually any interior surface, making it the perfect companion for long road trips and car shows. Not only will Innerclean clean dashboards, door panels, steering wheels, shifters, gauges, nav screens, and more, Innerclean won’t add any shine and will lay down a layer of UV protection with every wipe. It’s hard to believe KITT is over 35 years old now… but you wouldn’t know that just looking at that jet black interior! The secret to preserving your interior is out: Use Chemical Guys Innerclean to not only clean, but to protect your interior from discoloration and fading and to keep it looking new for years to come! Nick loves Innerclean not only for its protective properties, but because of its ease of use and ability to repel dirt and debris, making cleaning the interior next time easier. Nick loves to work smarter, not harder, and that’s why he chooses Chemical Guys Innerclean every time. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• ➜ InnerClean Interior Quick Detailer and Protectant https://ift.tt/2HiHgJT ➜ Ultra Fine Microfiber Towel https://ift.tt/2vciyWL ➜ InnerClean Interior Quick Detailer & Protectant, Limited Edition Baby Powder Scent https://ift.tt/2Hhn771 •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Visit your local Detail Garage for your favorite products and helpful advise! ● https://ift.tt/2jS6ww4... ● Website: www.ChemicalGuys.com ● Subscribe to our channel: https://www.youtube.com/subscription_... ● Subscribe to our newsletter: https://ift.tt/2jS6ww4... ● Like Us on Facebook: https://ift.tt/2xtBVcJ... ● Follow us on Instagram: https://ift.tt/2vjwfPB
