    I recently bit the bullet... PIX NOW UP And wet sanded the factory installed orange peel of my 2016 Audi A5. Here is what I did, as described to my son earlier today: I wet sanded by hand the paint on the car using 2000 grit using a hard rubber block, and kept at it until I could see the...

    Cavallo Auto Salon

    Even a blind squirrel finds a nut...

    The CG Jet Seal and V07 arrived in the Fedex truck this morning but could not experiment with it until this evening.  The hood on my S6 was polished with HD Cut and HD Uno then finished off with Poxy a few days ago.  Washed car this morning with CG Citrus & Gloss Wash then de-dusted and...

    I came back...

    Hi all y'all, I used to be a member here 8-10 years ago, then life got in my way for a bit.   Just picked up a new Audi S6 in Estoril Blue which the dealership swirled, scratched and spider webbed, wickedly, while in customer prep.  Now I am in the process of removing the mess and getting...
