What are you guys using to clean foam tire shine applicators? I have tried Dawn, Dawn Power Dissolver, and Krud Kutter, all with very poor results. What I use for tire dressing are actually foam dishwashing sponges that I get at the dollar store (three for a buck). I don't mind tossing them when...

Does anyone have any experience with this tool. It is a 6.5 amp 6 inch dual mode sander/polisher. I believe it has a forced rotation mode that would be similar to a Flex 3401. I have read that some people don't like the fact that the Flex rotates the opposite way of most polishers and I don't...

Are Meguiar's SMAT polishes/compounds the only ones out there with non-diminishing abrasives? What about HD UNO?

I have read many good things about 1Z Glanz and just discovered that Detailing.com is on my way home from work and they carry 1Z products.:heelclick What I have not been able to determine is whether or not Glanz has any cleaners in it. I do not want to strip off any of the EZ-Creme Glaze. I was...

I can't believe that nobody else has posted anything about the new products from Meg's. Visited the Meguiar's forum for the first time in a few weeks. HOLY COW!! They've been busy. Ultimate Wax....A clean-sheet-of-paper 100% synthetic sealant that doesn't stain trim and has better...

My local Walmart (Foothill Ranch, CA) has the 60oz. bag of Woolite Complete (not the HE version that Scottwax uses) on clearance for $3.00. At a 10:1 dilution this would make more than five gallons. If you use distilled water, the water would cost more than the Woolite! :LOLOL

I have seen Autoglym HD wax at my local Walmarts. I have also seen Autoglym Super Resin Polish at Pep Boys for $14.99 but that's too rich for my blood. Does anyone know if Walmart is going to carry SRP? Also, is SRP easy to use by hand? I have Poli-Seal but I don't think it applies easily by...

Costco sells the twin pack(28oz. each) of Armor All original for ten bucks and change (can't remember exactly). There is a coupon for $2.50 off that is good April 15 to May 9.

Does anyone use ONR as a glass cleaner on a regular basis? If so, at what dilution? I really like sprayway for exterior glass, but not so much for interior because it is a foam and it tends to get on areas that I don't want it on. Also, is ONR safe for tinted windows. TIA

One of the many things I learned on this forum is that FK425 is generally regarded as one of the best QDs. Another thing that I learned was that Finish Kare was bought by Allbrite Car Care Products. After a little research I discovered that Allbrite is located about twenty miles from where I...

Hi all. I have been lurking here for about three years (yes I know...a little crazy) and have finally decided to join in the fun. I want to thank you guys for taking the time to share your knowledge, some of which was learned the hard way. I love reading about all the different products, but...
