I replaced my Ventura orange McLaren 570s with this 2019 lizard green GT3rs beauty. Just got done detailing it after my track weekend. I did a simple wash and would love to know of some products/steps that I can use that might give me better results. I did a rinse off using the pressure...

My car just had a full detail, but sat outside for a couple hours yesterday and got quite a bit of dust/pollen on it. I was curious as to the proper or best way to get it clean and shiny again. Since the car just had a full wash and detail... it doesn’t make much sense for me to give it a full...

I just bought a car that has been ceramic coated and has the front half covered in protective paint film. Initially, I didn’t know that the car had been ceramic coated until one of the detail guys from the shop reached out to me. He recommended gtechniq c2v3 so I bought it, but when I went back...

I posted earlier about proper way to care for a car that has paint protection film on it and several people recommened Gtechniq. I youtubed it and the application and use seems super easy, but did not realize that it was actually a sealant. I have heard that sealants have a notorious margin for...

Nothing is more irritating to me when I give my car a nice bath in the shade and immediately dry it off only to find it covered in water spots. I have been seeing some ads pop up on my Facebook feed for filtering systems that allows for a spot free wash. Are such filtration systems the only way...

Just picked up a McLaren 570s that has 2/3rds of it wrapped in protective clear film. I was curious as to if there was special detailing procedures that were recommended for clear wrapped cars. My BMW M4 has a small piece of film covering the rear fenders and it has gotten pretty dingy. I am...

Hey guys, I am planning on giving my Audi A5 a good wax this coming weekend and want to make sure that I use the right products. I have ordered several things from Autogeek and was more than happy with their service so I will be purchasing something from them. Last time I used the Autoglym...

I have always detailed my own vehicles since I take great pride in the finished product. I recently purchased my first vehicle that was not white or silver which was a Aruba Blue 20010 Audi A5. Of course, it being blue showed every single imperfection including swirl marks and holograms were...

I had my hood repained along with my front bumper due to excessive stone chips that the previous owner put on my 335i. The car was painted about a week and half ago. Is it safe for me to wash the car now? It has gotten a bit dirty and I just cannot stand to look at a dirty car especially...

Going to wash my car with dawn liquid soap to get rid of any remaining wax that might be on there Clay-bar entire vehicle with Meguiars (is the premium clay-bars any better??) I always need an excuse to spend more money! Polish using M205. I also have the M105.... but I am guessing I only...

Hello guys, I just picked up my 2008 BMW 335i coupe and I am super excited about it and even more excited about getting it looking sharp! For my silver CTS-V I used Ultima Paint Guard Plus and while I am not a expert, I was not overly happy with the sealant. That is why I am going back to...

I coming to the end of my detail of my CTS-V and it has been a learning experience since this was my first detail! After cleaning my wheels and applying wheel polish to them, I am considering putting UPGP on the wheels. It makes sense since it would "protect" it more from brake dust and...

I have been told mostly by other forum members to spread the product (polish) on the section that is being worked on BEFORE even turning on the PC. This makes sense to me to see that a equal amount of product is being applied to each part of the panel being worked on. KB recommends that you...

I think that I pretty much have the technique down for using the M105. My question is with the M205 is the technique the same? I did not know if you used lighter pressure, made less/more passes, etc since it is a finer polish.

On Friday I am doing my first offical detail on my new CTS-V. After watching many youtube videos, I think I have it down but I wanted to run it by you guys first. With the M105 and M205 my concern is how long do I need to work it in. Judging from the videos, I probably need to work it in...
