This '91 Acura Legend I just got has 150,000 miles of embedded dirt and oil in the leather and also lots of cracks. It feels worse than most vinyls but that's ok because I just want the color black absent from my tan leather seats. The cracks have become 90% black instead of white like they...

Is this a no no ? :o I was out shopping for a chair all day and now that I've finished my clay it's too dark to wash. Tomorrow is my day off work so I was hoping to do some detailing but this will be very hard if I have to wash. So does anybody know if I can get away with Megs QD instead of...

I have a can of zymol carbon which I bought a while ago and I remember it being very hard to take off the paint. I did a search and people say there is a correct technique for their particular waxes. However I didn't find what this technique is...Does anybody know how I can cut down on the...

I can't believe how many swirls my bro put in his car but it's his car :o . Anyways he used some cheapo bug be gone and he didn't even rinse it off of my wheel brush. :nono Now it has a green tint since I didn't find out about it until four days after he did it. Anyways is this brush still...

If a car has been sitting in a semi-dirty garage and I want to detail it is it good enough just to run my CCD over it? I'm talking about 1 or 2 days here without being brought outside. The garage has AC but it's got a little dust problem that I'm not going to be able to fix in time. Also I...

My rear quarter windows are squeaking constantly and they are about as loud as the exhaust. The chrome runs all the way around and bolts into the frame too. I figured this was the place to ask for products or reccomendations because nobody else cares!

I haven't used any MF towels except for 3m's yellow cloths and when I am hand polishing it only takes stuff off when there's only a little left. Did I just get the wrong MF towels or are they just for the final wipes? Lately I've been using terry towels until the majority is off. :nixweiss

I had my whole car repainted about 1.5 years ago and I was planning on claying it until I saw this thread... http://www.autopia.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=17458&highlight=clay (basically the only damage from claying was on a repainted area). The reason I'm worried is my paint is...

I have a '92 passat with no grill and about 1/5 of the header panel is laden in bugs, some of which are really on there hard. On the really hard ones I was going to use P21S total auto wash and I understand that this stuff is not gentle on the paint if dried. I don't want to have to rinse my...

When I took my car there I didn't switch over to my crappy wheels and my bridgestone S-03's now have harsh carwash soap practically bonded to it. The soap didn't get rinsed off and it was on the car for about 4-5 days. I tried to get it off using a soft brush and P21S total auto wash (the...
