    Shelf life of Klasse AIO and SG

    I need to detail/prep my car for sale and would like to use the Klasse system since I had success with my last 2 cars. I know both bottles are about 5 years old and have been stored in the garage. Is it still good or should I just buy some more? Also, I have a PC random orbital that I would...

    Any reputable shops in Columbus?

    I did a search but only one thread came up and it didn't have the names of any shops. I'm looking for a reputable company to prep my 2006 330 convertible for sale. I used to do the Klasse system but haven't had time to detail my car for awhile. I would like someone who would also use a very good...

    Interior repair

    I have a few small spots on the back seat of my 2006 BMW 330 that I would like to repair. They are not quite tears but more like something pushed into the leather and punctured it. Any ideas on how to fix this? Am I better off just taking it to an auto upholstery shop for repair?

    Any good detailers in Columbus, OH?

    I did a search but nothing came up. I'm looking for a reputable company to prep my 2006 330 convertible for sale. I used to do the Klasse system but haven't had time to detail my car for awhile. I would like someone who would also use a very good cleaner/sealant but all I can seem to find are...

    What's the verdict on deionizers?

    I followed the Mr. Clean Autodry threads and the general consensus seemed to be a water deionizer would be the better solution. I read several references to members who were going to try a RV solution which consisted of some type of deionizing filter. Someone also recommended a garden hose...

    Pad recommendations for Porter Cable

    I am planning the spring cleaning of my jet black Z4 and I need some PC pad recommendations. I am planning on using the Menzerna twins followed by AIO and UPP. The PC will only be used for the Menzerna. What pads are currently recommended? I found this link but I'm not sure if it's what I...

    Water spots, vinegar, and AIO

    I washed my car today and before I could get done it was drying (it was really hot today). As a result I got some nasty water spots. Following the advice here I spritzed the bad areas with some white vinegar and wiped it down with a clean MF. The vinegar did a great job at removing the spots...

    Dealer instaled swirls (updated w/ pics)

    Last week I started a thread asking for help/advice on dealing with dealer installed swirls on a new black Z4. The car is in now having a rear spoiler installed and they are going to look at it and let me know exactly how it will be fixed. I'm still unsure if I want them to fix it or if I...

    Best way to remove swirls from new car

    I recently took delivery of my new black Z4 and it has some swirls and scratches. The dealer offered to have them buffed out but I'm not sure I want to let them. Would I be better off buying a PC and doing it myself? I've done some research and I am considering getting the PC 7336 and...

    Escort 7500 vs 8500

    I'm looking for a new radar detector for my Z4. I've used the cheaper models in the past but they usually end up in the glove box because of the constant false alarms. I would like to get the 8500 but I don't know that I can spend $300 on a radar detector. What is the difference the 7500...

    Escort Cordless vs other Escort radar detectors

    I recently purchased a Escort Solo radar detector. I got a great deal so I couldn't pass it up. After some reading it seems the cordless detectors are very lacking with range. I know the Escort Solo has an optional cord. With this optional cord does the solo then become as good as the other...

    Best solution for new Jet Black BMW Z4

    My new Z4 will arrive next month and I'm trying to determine the best way to keep my black car black. After 2 days worth of searching multiple BMW and auto forums I think I have a workable solution. My plan is to get the "Perfect Shine" detailing kit from Autopia and use the Klasse products...
