    S&W on Windows??

    Has anybody tried cleaning their windows with S&W? I was wiping down the car the other day, and accidently sprayed some S&W on the window, so I wiped it off. As I did it, I realized how nice it cleaned the small area I wiped. So I did all of the side and back windows and it cleaned nice, with...

    Topped with Souveran - How to Maintain?

    I've always used sealants when detailing my car, but this time I topped my sealant (which was 2 coats of Duragloss 105) with Souveran. I've never topped with a carnauba before so I'm not sure what would be the best products to use now to maintain. Here are the "booster waxes" I have: Crystal...

    Topping Duragloss #105 with Natty's Blue or Souveran

    Has anybody tried topping DG105 with Natty's or Souveran? I was thinking about trying that out on my Black Honda Pilot. How do you think this will work together?

    My 6 year old daughter understands car care!

    I think my 6 year old daughter knows more about proper car care than maybe 90% of the public. She knows about the 2 bucket method and grit guard. She sometimes helps me by rinsing my wash mit. We were eating dinner the other day and I asked her how should you wash the car, she said, "you need...

    Taping Off Trim

    I was wondering if you guys always tape off your trim. When I'm polishing, I tape it off (although I don't want to sometimes), but I was wondering if you are putting on an extra coat of wax or sealant do you re-tape everything. Do you know which waxes and sealants are known to stain or not...

    Don't you just hate it when...

    You just cleaned your car... you take it out on the freeway...and the car in front of you decides to start misting their windshield. Of course most of the mist blows right over their car onto yours, leaving all those little water spots on the windshield. It happens to me all the time and it...

    My Wife had a Car Care Breakthrough

    Since I started to get addicted to detailing in April, I've been trying to explain to my wife the do's and don'ts about taking care of the car. She usually doesn't notice things. Last night we had to stop off at the UPS store, so I drove up behind a brand new black Mercedes SUV. I told my...

    My Hondas

    Here's some photos of my Accord and Pilot, after I detailed them. I'm just a rookie, so I'm still learning. On the Pilot, I did it by hand, before I had my PC. I used Meguiar's DC#1, DC#2, #21 and NXT On the Accord, I used Meguiar's #80, then 2 coats of Duragloss #105, and topped that with...

    Lint in Microfiber - Can't get it out

    I was hoping that somebody could help me. I'm living in the twilight zone of lint. About 2 weeks ago, I washed my microfibers, like I always do, but this time somehow they attracked some lint. The microfibers I washed were some detail city silky smooth, Cobra Super Plush Deluxe, Cobra Super...

    Hello from SF Bay Area

    I've been lurking around here for a few months now, so I thought I would finally say hi. I started getting into detailing in April, well it started wanting to take care of the car the right way, then it turned into an obsession. I don't even want to think about how much money I've spent. When...
