    Finesse-it? Perfect-it? So confusing...

    I'm finally ready to order a PC. Just wondering if it is the Finesse-it 2 I'm supposed to be using, sans fillers, to see if indeed my swirls are coming out? Is this labeled a compound? Then I can go straight to , say, #9.

    100% cotton...are they really?

    I read somewhere that so-called all-cotton towels and cloths that are made in Bangledesh or Pakistan aren't really 100% cotton and can scratch. It just so happens that the bag of cloths I bought at Costco are just that. No wonder I didn't have any swirls back when I used to steal my mom's old...

    Car has never looked better...

    A brand new chenille wash mitt and some Meguiars Gold Class and the car is just shimmering! My normal sheepskin mitt and Mothers wash never made it look like this. Also, I'm using a spot-free rinse in lieu of towel drying. I'm eliminating the drying step from now on.

    White spots all over engine bay

    Couldn't find any Simple Green last time around for engine cleaning so I went with Meguiar's "Extra" all-purpose cleaner in the purple bottle. Big mistake. White spots everywhere, which a subsequent Simple Greening failed to remove. Do I have to brush the entire engine compartment now? Any...

    Remember Autofom?

    This was a sealant pitched by Dennis Weaver on late-nite infomercials about 6 or 7 years ago. I believe it was made by Blue Coral. I ordered it and was very pleased with the results. Did any of you try it, and if so, how does it compare to the current crop? BTW, new to the boards. Great site!
