I turned my dad onto CarPro`s Water Spot Remover based on my excellent results on my car but his Vette has water spots that are really old and he`s not having the same results. He said that it did make a difference but not enough for his pleasure and I think he`d be willing to try ONE more...

Friggen NOPE! As a few of you know I just did my car in CSL/EXO V4 within the last few weeks in a Hail Marry effort to prevent or minimize the bird etchings that I fight on a daily basis. Well, today I got my answer and the coating didn`t help at all. There are two coats of CSL and one EXO V4...

This is old news to a lot of people but since I’m an amateur who is still trying to find the best materials to polish my black car with I thought I would post up my recent thoughts from comparing Meg205 and Griots Perfecting Cream in case others have the same issue I have had with M205. Last...

I have some CSL and EXO V3 left over from practicing on my truck. Now I want to do the "show" car and was wondering if it`s worth putting both CSL/EXO on the truck/door jams to help ease of cleaning them before a show or will EXO be enough? Usually when I wash the car I don`t always do the...

As a practice vehicle I did CSL and EXO V3 yesterday on my truck and I see this morning that there are several spots where I didn`t get V3 completely wiped clear on a door and naturally it won`t wipe clean now. If I apply another coat of V3 on the door will it cover these splotchy areas? It`s...

Realistically, how much time do I need to wait before I can drive? I`m practicing applying CSL/EXO on my truck before doing my car but its getting difficult to give the truck a full 12hrs of cure time in the garage before needing to drive it. I was hoping that I can apply it around 8pm in the...

Watch a GT-R which runs 9.0 @ 160 mph looks like it`s tied to a tree: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wB6dKuv0oB4 I want one!:ph34r: ks

I was being facetious about the "secret" testing that someone may be doing, I thought people would understand that. MFR`s (including myself) will release info all the time before a product release to create buzz which helps get orders before it`s actually released. And, yes, I have required...

I`ve researched ceramic coatings for the last year making a spreadsheet to log MFR specifications (chemical composition, hardness, etc) and I`ve read the many postings and test results posted on forums and I do have a favorite that I will probably use. But anyone hear of any Brand NEW ceramic...

Does anyone have seats with kevlar cloth that they can give an opinion on about the cloth`s durability? It seems the cloth over seat bolsters tend to wear quickly so I`m contemplating replacing a few of the high wear areas with kevlar cloth. It seems to reason that kevlar would resist wear a...

I`m not an expert but my experience comes from my first paint job a few months ago when I painted my hood with a clear/base process. With this said the color goes on thinner and lighter. It`s simply there to create the color and may not even have much of a shine. The clear is sprayed over the...

I had a freshly painted hood (top and bottom) and while I was wet sanding the top of the hood, the bottom of the hood ended up getting a lot of water that eventually dried leaving a lot of calcium deposits. I picked one area where I first tried polishing the spots off with M205 (no luck) then...

I`ve recently discovered how to finish polish the black paint on my Mustang using a final polishing coat of Meg`s 205 and absolutely love the results. But I also see they make a #9 which is finer than the 205 then a #3 which is finer than the #9. I have both the #9 and #3 on order for testing...

After a 3 month project my car is covered in fiberglass dust and several times during project time I had to set the car outside for a day where it got lightly rained on. Later this week I need to get all this dust off and do as little damage as possible. Before all the glass dust floated around...

New member here but I just finished a project that I`m really proud of so I wanted to share it. I`m a major DIY`er making a lot of the custom parts for my car and this time I wanted a custom fiberglass hood but instead of using a bunch of bondo and panel adhesive I chose to make a mold and mold...
