I spoke with a 3M distribution rep today about the newer Perfect-IT III line that has been out for a short time. He told me some very interesting things about this product line. One thing he stated was to not interchange the lines of product. This would and could defeat the finished surface...

Besides "Top of the Line" does anybody know of a internet web site of the manufacture of "portable water tanks" made of polyethylene plastic? Any help would be great!

Have you ever just looked at your car and thought that there has to be a better way of getting a fantastic finish? I have and after much thought and question asking I took the plunge and bought a PC 7424. After purchasing the Porter Cable 7424 orbital buffer I was not happy with the finish of my...

After searching the word "clay" I found that there were far to many threads about clay bars. I am in the market to get a very good, high quality clay bar for detail work. I'm not interested in Mother's or Meguiar's brand (these seem to be used a lot on this board). My interests have been...

Hey gang, Just bought a Makita 9227C 7" polisher on Thursday. I have to say that it's a really nice machine. Speeds are from 600rmp to 3000rpm ( not that I'll ever use that maximum speed). What is really nice about this buffer is that when you first start it, it does not go to max set speed. It...

I'm thinking about getting a top of the line Rotary buffer. I'm leaning towards a buffer with the ability to buff (variable speed) with slower speeds. I would like the veterans that use a Rotary buffer to tell me at what angles do they use the buffer at depending on what part of the car, or...

I did a search on this site for "microfiber mitts" and found threads, but not much about where people have bought them from. I know that CMA sells them, but wondered if anybody has found anything better on the market. Let me know, Thanks

I'm thinking about getting a Portar Cable 7424, however I am not discounting getting a rotary buffer instead. The final factor will be what grit scratches the Portar Cable will remove (taking into account what type of compound will be used). I am wondering if the Portar Cable will handle...

After about a month I've noticed the hood surface of the wife's 4Runner getting contaminated. The plastic bag trick does make the finish feel rough in places. Here's my qustion: Can I use Zaino's clay bar and Z-7 as lube to clean the surface even though I have applied Z-5 and Z-2 to the...

Does anyone know of a "chain" store country wide that carries static rubber window stickers? My Bimmer has no antenna to attach a flag to. Perhaps you could suggest a place.

Okay topic this is directed to the veterans of this forum or those that detail for a living. I'll throw in those that know a lot about this as well. I'm thinking about getting a Porter Cable buffer for my personal use. I see that there are a multitude of different materials on the market for...

What does everyone use to keep the rubber door trim nice and soft and black? This would include the trim inside the trunk, and under the engine hood... Thanks

Okay so you have a nice car and it's all pretty and smooth and makes your friends, neighbors and co-workers just stare and admire it. These "Quick Detailers" are on the market and they somehow remind me of "Waterless Carwash" which is crap (I've tried it on my old car). So after you get home...
