    Ozium New Car Smell

    Hello everyone, I got some Ozium NCS today. I was suprised that I was able to find it, it was down in a little box in a bottom corner shelf at a K-mart :D As soon as I sprayed it I said "This doesnt smell like a new car, it smells like lotion!" I detailed the inside of the Explorer today...

    Noob - Need some advice

    Hello everyone, I have done some searching on the EO scratch remover, and I couldnt find some of the information I was after. I was wondering how it compares to Meguiars #9? I need to buy a type of SMR since I have the typical very fine swirls, and they're more on the hood than anywhere else...

    Mobile Detailers Tank & Pressure Washer

    Hi guys, I have a bit of a dilema. I just now got a decent tire cleaner (diluted Greased Lightning). Before I did my best with Meguiars shampoo and a tire brush, but I never could get all that grime out from between the tread blocks (knobby offroad type tires), and I was stupid and went ahead...

    Detailed Elegance - 2010 Sandy Black Pearl Carola

    Hi all, I just noticed a bag of these the other day and wondered how good they were and if they were worth wasting my time with. I have two bags (36 towels or so) that are the kind you can get all over the place, and I'm starting to think they arent REALLY 100% cotton, since in some places...

    Just a reminder that threads started in 'off topic' sections such as the water cooler

    Street Dreams Detail - Black STi revisited + correction

    I got a roll of these things for Christmas, came in a 6 pack I think. I used one for a QD cloth yesterday, and its wonderful! I wiped the QD around with a terry towel, and then buffed it off with the finishing cloth, it worked great. No lint at all, no seams to scratch, and soooo smooth and soft...

    2010 Corvette Vert... Crystal Red Metallic...

    Yes, you read it right. A cat emptied the contents of its small feline stomach all over my leather back seat. It also emptied a good bit on me and my brother. I have never seen a cat puke so much in my life. I would be amazed to see anything like it ever again. It was like it had the full...

    my favorite minivan.....really!

    Blast! My cheap MTX 240 amp is no more. One of my friends was using it and I guess he did something wrong and it caught on fire! The fuse sparked and lit right up, so he ripped it out and smoke came billowing out of it. I took the board out of it since its pretty much wasted, and the fuse link...
