Hi guys, I haven't been on for a long time but since the weather is getting better, I wanted to do a polish on the car. Ya know, Spring Cleaning. I was wondering if I could go with this order? Wash Clay Meguair's No.9 w/ PC Blackfire Sealant Would this be ok? I have some...

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this so mods, please move if you feel the need. I recently got scratches on the bumper when I was driving down the I-95 during a thunderstorm. There were tree branches on the I-95 that the wind was blowing around and I could not swerve out of the...

I was curious about the many uses of WD-40 and found that it was used often in florida to get rid of the love bugs that splat on there bumpers. I have some bugs that I would like to get rid of and don't have any products to do it with. However, I have a can of WD-40 ready to go. I was...

I have gotten a new Acura TL back last May and this Spring will be the first time I polish it to get rid of some swirls. The swirls are very light and so I decided to go with Meg's #5. My question is, after the polish, would I wash the car again? Or could I just go ahead and put my...

I did a dumb thing. I never cover my windshield wiper nozzels on my hood when I polish and wax. I know, I know, I'm an idiot. How do I get them unclogged? They do spray but in streams instead of the spray that it used to have. Can I go at it with some sort of solvent? I used 3m SMR and...

I have recently got this scratch on my car. I think its from the metal tabs on jeans. I seriously think my car is bad luck. http://www.autopia.org/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=3425&size=big&papass=&sort=1 I got that dent last time which I did get fixed and came out great but now this...

I am still in the process of looking for a dealer that carries DACP and I plan to detail my car this weekend. If I am unable to find the DACP, I'm just gonna go with the 3M SMR and the Blackfire polish on top of it. My question is; How good is the process? I know SMR has fillers in...

It really pisses me off when people have no respect for other peoples properties. I just got a dent from someone sitting on the car or something. I wasn't there when it happened and so I can't go and beat the ****** up or anything. I want to get it repaired. How much do you think it...

I have 3 layers of BF on my car currently. I wanted to do some PC work to get out some swirls on certain parts of my car. Now this would strip the BF in those areas. But, here's the thing. If I put the BF back on to those layers as well as the rest of the car that wasn't PC'ed, would...

I have been using BF for last couple of washes I did on my car. I have been hearing so many good things about S100 on top of BF and am thinking of goin out to pick some up. I recently purchased the QD for BF and was wondering if I could keep using this to QD on top of S100. I would figure...

Today I did a ful Detail with my new PC. I had the thing for a while but I finally got a chance to use it. I started by washing the car with the Blackfire Shampoo. Then I used my brand new Pinnacle Clay. So easy to do by the way. Then came the SMR with my new PC since I always went to...

I have a few paint chips and i'm not really comfortable on doing the repair myself. Does anyone know of any good places in the NYC area that offers great service at great prices? One of the chips is starting to rust and I'm afraid its gonna start getting under the paint. Thanks in advance!

n00b question here... I hear about water beading and sheeting off a cars paint... I am currently using BF2 on my car and it forms tight water beads after rain. Its been about 2 months since the application and it still does it. My question is; Do I want the water to bead or sheet...

I have a few some paint ships around my car. One of them is rusting pretty badly now. I have put this off for too long. The thing is. I don't want to do it myself and ruin it. I don't really have a steady hand and am not too good at stuff like that. So I wanted to take it to a...

I just recieved my order of BlackFire yesterday and appied it. It looks great on my black accord. And yes very very little does go along way. I only did one coat because it felt like my arms were gonna fall off after washing and polishing and putting that one coat of it on. Anyways, I...
