    MF detailing clothing

    I'm always worried that while leaning over the car I'll scratch up a panel somehow with my clothes... How about some Autopia-branded MF overalls! :hm

    Devil's advocate - 'Twin' products

    [asbestos suit on] Imagine this scenario: Group of guys form a company and work on a paint cleaner and sealant combination. Over time, each of the guys (now directors) decides that the development of the products isn't going the way it should i.e. Bob thinks it should be more glossy, Dave...

    Poorboys / Menzerna / Optimum Choice

    Ok, so I'm at the online shop and deciding on my choice of polishes. Having read most of the recent posts here concerning all of these brands, can anyone help with choosing one of the three brands? I'm no professional, but I'm fairly confident using the PC with the Sonus DAS pads so I'd like...

    Oh no! Polished Bliss on holiday!

    Aargh I was just ready to place my order this afternoon for the Optimum trio, but see that PolishedBliss is closed :grrr Just today I got the opportunity to revive a somewhat neglected Black Porsche Carrera 4 sometime in the near future... Apart from Autogeek, (their online shopping...

    03 Ford Fiesta - black roof rack strips

    I'm giving the wife's car the full treamtment and the black strips running down each side of the roof are well grimy. Trouble is I can't find a way to remove them. On my Honda, they just clip on to a couple of pins at each end, but these seem to be stuck on? The owners manual makes no mention of...

    Sonus Scratch Removal Kit PC Counterweight Conundrum

    Yay! my Sonus scratch removal kit arrived in the posts this week. I've not tried to attached it to my PC yet, but I'm thinking I might need to mess around with the counterweight? I've been using my PC quite happily so far with the Sonus DAS polisher Kit (6-7inch pads?) so I assume the...

    Household PC Challenge

    The last guy who owned our house had a huge dog which he kept in the Conservatory. Subsequently, the double-glazed patio doors leading into the house have aquired a good many surface scratches (I'm told that the glass surface is quite soft.) Can/should I tackle the problem with my PC? :confused:

    Which car canopy?

    Have been reading a lot of posts on the main forums about car canopies (ezup etc.) and have been thinking this might be a good investment, since I only usually get the weekend for detailing and then only if the weather is just right - not sunny, not raining. Does anyone else use a canopy, if...

    Spotted!

    Followed a car through Kidderminster a couple of days back with an autopia badge on the back (oval/blue). Is that an 'official' emblem?

    PC rotating or just jigging?

    The pad seems not to rotate as much as I though but just jiggle. This is more noticable when I fit the MF bonnet to the orange pad. Is it it on some kind of clutch system so that increased pressure on the surface slows the spinning? Maybe I've broken it somehow. Theoretically, I could have...

    Sonus Pads and Autoglym range

    My PC and DAS pads arrived this week :woot2: and I'm contemplating my strategy while I get the 'power' side of things in place. My wife's car will donate the body panels for my PC 'education' before I take to my own car's paint with it. So anyways, I'm figuring these Sonus-Autoglym...
