What say the experts on making some rubber trim at the base of side windows and surrounding f/r glass look somewhat new again? I need something that will last, soaks up nicely and provides some uv protection. Haven't got good results with 1z tiefenwhatever. Thanks guys.

Burned out for a little while and neglected my poor car so now I'm getting back into the groove. What are some of the high end goodies that have come out in the past few months? I got the new p21s metal polishing soap, alcantara kit and monster fluffy towels (un-effing real btw) from detailers...

I've had it with having a daily driven m3 and keeping it in pimpin condition at all times. I've got a whole detailing arsenal including pc with ten pads, menzerna twins, the whole p21s line, most of the 1z line and lots and lots of MF including waffle weaves and the new monster fluffies from...

Nick at detailers paradise has set up a pre-order for the first batch of lackfinish detail spray that will arrive late may. Here is the link for those interested. Lackfinish at DP

Mike, Will our version of lackfinish alas be different in order to be used as a qd? Will it have any type of cleaning action like a regular qd as well? Is the shipment still scheduled to arrive the last week of may as planned? Thanks.

off windows? I am going to do the usual clay bar, but I want them extra squeeky clean so I was wondering if 1z glass polish will work on those spots if there are any left over from claying? Plan on applying with mf app, thanks guys. Btw, my pinnacle clay sucks at grabbing everything.

I have made it a habit of misting the pad every time I begin polishing a panel. What effect does this have on the abrasive qualities and results of my work and do you advise against it? Some say it makes the cutitng action greater while a friend who uses menzerna says that it prevents micro...

Since I've heard so much about ranney's towels, I wanted to sample a couple. I pm'ed ranney yesterday and emailed him today but have yet to hear a response. How long does it usually take to get a response? Thanks guys. Guess I've been spoiled by Nick@detailersparadise who always gets back to...

Or should I go from paint polish to waxpolish and skip the metallic Mike? I don't mind the extra steps, just want everything to come out perfect.

I haven't received it yet and was wondering this, thanks guys.

There appears to be two different vac n blos, can anyone shed some light as to the differences since the metro site doens't do a good job of it? Also, is the junior worth getting (only 60 bucks)only for detailing? I hate having the go over the same spot a thousand times to pick something up...

I've been told it's buffer burn caused by a hasty or inexperienced detailer with the wrong pad and/or compound and such. Question is how do you get rid of it and will only a rotary do the job? Thanks guys.
