    Malco Products-- where do you get them from?

    Hi Everyone, I sent an email to Malco to find a distributor and they never responded (2 weeks ago). I was wondering where do you order Malco products from? I'm really interested in trying out the Plum Crazy Hand Glaze again. Thanks!

    Car protection- meaning theft prevention...

    This is not a detailing question but since a lot of people have nice cars it may help prevent a car from being stolen. Not sure if anyone else saw this but a couple of weeks ago ABC Primetime or some show like that did a story where a car thief copies down the VIN (Vehicle Identification...

    How do you deal with this....inconsiderate people and door dings?

    I park in a parking garage at work and usually no one parks next to me due to the fact that on the passenger side is 1 small spot with a concrete post on the other side. No one parks on the left side of my car since there's no spot- just the aisle. To make a long story short, I come out...

    arrrggghhh-now I'm really confused - #82, #81 and #7

    what's the difference between #7 and #81 and how aggressive is #82. I looked at the Mequiars website and totally got turned around. do you use#81 first and then 7 or vice versa? The paint has some very minor swirls and I want to get some protection on the car (bright silver metallic)...

    Ok- now what do I do? Oh yeah- Yell for Help!- Dash too shiny..

    I used a rubber/vinyl cleaner protectant on the dark gray matte finish of the dash on my car. It streaked on the first application and it said to re-apply which I did. The streaks went away and I thought the dash looked pretty good--not slick but also not dry looking. I pull out of the...

    I had a auto recycler send me a wiring harness out of a totalled Chrysler 300M which has the connectors for the lighted visor mirrors, overhead console and automatic dimming rear view mirror. I got the package today and noticed that it was quite muddy and dirty with some mud caked into the...
