Hi, I've just got my order for various PB products and wondered what speeds are you using for their products (probably with a polishing pad - possibly with a cutting pad). I've got SSR 2.5 / SSR 1 / Pro-Polish / EX-P If you have any other tips regarding these I'd be grateful if you...

Hi, I want to scotchuard the interior of my new car, but I just can't think of where to go to buy a tin. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks, Face

Hi, I keep toying with the idea of buying some APC/APC+ but never get around to it. But now I might. What I'd like to know is can I use it as a substitute for Meguiars #39 Heavy Duty Vinyl Cleaner? Basically, I want something that I can use to clean areas like plastic dashboards and inner...

Hi, I currently have a black car, which i love. It looks so good when I've finished working on it. I think a nice-detailed black car look the absolute best. However, I now have to change my car, due to a new arrival in the next few weeks. My wife works for a car dealer and they have two...

Hi, I'm looking to buy some stuff from the Auotpia store, including #16, #80 and #81. I've read before that you shouldn't let products freeze as this will cause them to seperate and deteriorate and I'm concerned that this may happen to my order during it's shipping, as aircraft holds can...

As topic really. Can it be used with a polishing pad? Or just use a finishing pad? Thanks, Face

Hi, I just got a Meguairs Ultimate Drying Towel for my birthday, and the instructions says to wash in hot water and tumble dry? I thought we didn't tumble dry microfibre products cos they melt? Is that not the case with waffle-weaves? My washer/dryer doesn't have a cool tumble only hot...

Hello, Basically, as subject. I put a coat of S100 on my car last weekend, and wondered whether NXT will go on top of it okay, or will there be bonding (or some other) issues? Thank you very much, Face

Hi, If two identical surfaces with prepped identically with the same materials, but one had been clayed and the other not, would the be a visual difference between the two? I appreciate that they'd feel different, but just wondering about the 'look'? Many thanks, Face

Hi, Is there such a thing as an Autopia Abrasive Scale? Something that lists different products from different manufacturers in order due to their abrasiveness. Meguairs and 3M seems to have some kind of scale for their own brands, but does anyone know how they compare? If no such scale...

Hello, Thanks to the great kindness of fellow Autopian jgv I have some new products to try out :xyxthumbs :xyxthumbs . Jose very kindly sent me samples of the following products and I was hpoing someone could tell me the best on/off and working techniques for them. You know, how long to...

Hi, Could someone tell me how long I should leave this product on for before removing? Or is it just a matter of waiting for it to haze, then buff off? Many thanks, Face

Hi, Went into my local The Body Shop today to buy some more of their 60ml, 125ml and 250ml empty plastic bottles with the flip cap and was told that they no longer sell empty bottles. Great! I wanted some so that I could start trading product samples with other autopians, but now seem...

Hi, Just wondering if any UK guys fancied swapping (or even re-selling) samples of products? We could buy small, empty 4oz bottles from the Body Shop and trade products to try them out before ordering full-size bottles from elsewhere. I think I paid about 25p for my 8oz bottles last...

Hello, I recently bought some of the 6" LC pads (the ones with the concave bottom) from CMA. Due to the fact I feel I was, shall we say, "overcharged", for shipping, I no longer wish to purchase goods from them if I can help it. Where else can I purchase these pads from on-line that will...
