Working on a 2005 Porsche Carerra basalt black bumper. It has some kind of scratch that was filled with flat black paint, then touched up with metallic paint. It's the size of a thumbprint but annoying. Looks like a scratch that has been touched up by a paintbrush. What is the best way to...

Have a Porsche that is in good shape. No interior cleaning needed. The body is almost swirl free, but need advice and service for possible wet sanding or touchup polishing. An easy job, but pictures, references and thorough knowledge of exotic cars a must. Location is near Diamond Bar...

Hey folks, looking for a new or used paint thickness gauge. If any of you pro's have a recommendation for an accurate gauge that won't cost a fortune or maybe have one you'd like to sell, please let me know. Looks like the clear is just about worn on one of my fenders and starting to show the...

Looking for a professional opinion. Working on a Porsche 911 carrera and the hood has a quarter sized imperfection right in the middle of the hood. Appears to be some spider-webbing under the clear coat. Not sure what exactly the paint has, but is this a problem with the clear coat or did...

A friend of mine picked up a 2005 black Jeep. Overall condition is excellent but of course it's a swirl monster. This will take some time bringing it back to original paint condition. The hood is covered with small "spotted" white dots if you go up to the car and look from 3 feet away. Not...

With all the sealants and waxes out there its a bit overwhelming at times. Like to detail black vehicles and enjoy Souverign wax. The application is a breeze and so is removal. The downside is, it sure doesn't last long. A few weeks then its gone with moderate washing. Like to try a sealant, but...

Wanted to share some amazing results with the community. Had a 5 year old vehicle with brake dust and road grime so bad, no wheel cleaner could penetrate the brake dust to get to the chrome. Short of purchasing a Mother's 3" powerball and Mother's metal polish, decided to try something. Picked...
