    Scratches on interior door panels

    I got out of my car a few weeks ago and my keys (while in my pocket) scratched the interior door panel. The panel is black, and the scratches appear whitish. They can barely be felt, and can be categorized as more of a linear scuff. I have tried protectants, APCs, even a magic eraser. The...

    ONR type wash without ONR

    Hi everyone, 70% chance of rain today and tomorrow in sunny South Florida. As a result, I chose not to wash the car today, but instead took a clean wash mitt and a bucket with fresh water, put a little Z-7 directly on the wet mitt, washed the front and side mirrors with Z-7, and went back...

    2006 IS350 - Zaino

    Happy Holidays all, Thought I'd join in and share a few photos of my 2006 IS350 with 9,700 miles. It's garage kept and babied, so it's easy to maintain the appearance. Exterior: - Surf City Garage Wash & Wax; - Eagle One A2Z; - Meg's Hot Shine tire dressing; - Zaino Z5 x 2; and -...

    Questions re: AIO and QD

    Hi all...just a couple of quick questions for anyone with the time to respond: 1. I used AIO on my wife's Escape, and topped it with some old Meg's GC I had laying around. I know it will wear off in a couple of weeks, but it looks pretty nice for now. Does anyone know if the GC will remove...

    Ft. Lauderdale area detailers

    I have a 2004 Dodge Durango that was in nearly perfect shape before a minor accident, and it is now swirled badly by the crappy detailers at the body shop. I need a pro that knows what they're doing to fix this mess. Please drop me a line if anyone is in the Ft. Lauderdale area and has...

    Meg's "Deep Crystal System" Carnauba Wax over Mothers Reflections Polish?

    I used Mothers Reflections polish after reading the (very) positive thread about the product today. IMO, it beats the Gold Class I put on last week hands down, and looks as good as Zaino did on this vehicle. I'd like to coat it with a wax, and am considering using Meg's "Deep Crystal...

    Meg's Gold Class over NXT

    I layered Gold Class over NXT today. I might have done this process backwards, but they both seem to be synthetics more than "waxes". Anyway, the results were good, but does anyone know if I removed the NXT in doing this? I think both products have some cleaners. Thanks for your help...

    black ballpoint pen on light leather

    Today I noticed two 1" ball point pen marks on the second row seat in my 04 Durango. It's the light gray interior, so it's very visible. My wife drives the vehicle, so it could have sat for a few days before it was noticed. I've tried alcohol and hairspray (same thing really) with...

    04 Durango

    I had my 04 Durango detailed today by "Mike's Car Wash and Detail" in Palm Beach, FL. I'm extremely picky about my vehicle, but don't currently have the time to take care of this beast myself. Mike took the Durango, complete with dealer installed swirls, and made it look like this...

    Am I just too picky?

    I just traded a Maxima for a 04 Dodge Durango, and decided that there's no way I'm going to tackle wash/detail work with this new vehicle until I get out of an apartment and into a house. I was very particular with the Maxima, and was a part of the Zaino cult. Anyway, I've had two different...
