Thanks to all the recent heavy rains (500 year floods, that's all), I haven't had the opportunity to care for the car. On Saturday, I finally got an opportunity to wash, and noticed the rock chip I had seen a few weeks prior was actually much worse than originally thought, and had gone all the...

As with everything, price is always an issue. But results are too. I haven't been happy with my OTC wheel cleaner, and thought I'd open myself up to suggestions. ONR works well enough, but I was hoping to find something with less agitation. I'm considering P21S/S100, but others (especially if...

Note: this C&B encompasses some mechanical repairs as well as detailing. I did zero paint correction due to the clear issues, and lack of a PC. This is a long read, so be prepared. And I know there are things I can do better. I wanted to share a little bit about my project I’ve been...

Seriously considering picking up one of the Gilmours on Amazon since they aren't that much more than a cheapo. I also looked at a foam lance, but those are pricey. Anything in-store that's comparable to the Gilmour? If not, which version should I get? I'll be using CG CWG. Thanks.

I wanted to pick up a brush to get into tight emblem areas, and I noticed that this was a popular product to use during washes. However, it seems a bit pricey especially since that would be the only thing I would order from the retailer. I noticed it said it had nylon bristles. Any OTC...

I'll be getting one pretty soon to eliminate the swirls and paint chips on my NBP Acura TL. But I'm not sure what pads to get. I know I want to stick with pads made by the same company so I don't get totally confused. And I think I want flat. Thoughts? Also, any other combo I should get...

As I haven't been able to touch my car in a couple weeks, naturally, I'm beginning to itch. And, while I'm at work, one way to scratch is to look for new or different products where I might be deficient. I'm looking at getting a 7424XP before the year is out, and if I'm not overly deficient...

Unfortunately, I don't have a garage. Probably won't have one at this house, and my shed is up a hill - not the best to drag stuff to and fro. I'm not a pro detailer by any stretch, but I do like making my vehicles look nice. I'd also like to keep a few other things closer to the house, but not...

I'm not really looking to purchase this from an online vendor, it's more of a curiosity than anything else. I don't have a garage, and my carport is uneven and has cracks. Wanted to potentially play around with it, and easily return it if I can't use it. I'd also be interested in making one...

Checking in from the Acurazine Wash & Wax board. This is the first car (2004 TL) that I've been caring for other than swirl-o-washes, so I'm definetly new to the scene. I've been stocking up on some recommended products, and I'm hoping to pick up a PC by the end of the year to experiment with.
