It seems I don`t get by these boards too often but every once in a while I`ll swing by and see something I`ve never seen before. So I was at Walmart the other day and I saw something on their clearance rack called "Rain-X Spray Wax with Graphene" I`ve never seen the word Graphene before. I...

Has anybody used Superhydrophobic coatings on leather. I have a 2017 Accord with coated leather and was wondering if it would help keep the leather clean from colored clothing. Thanks.

Hi. I just picked up a 2017 Honda Accord with leather interior. Unfortunately, I just discovered that the tint guy may have had a ball point pen in his back pocket. There are about 3 or 4, pretty faint ink marks, less than an inch long on the tan, coated leather. I`ve already tried Lexol and...

I posted this over in "machine polishing" but didn't get any responses. I'm using a flat, grey, 5" pad on a UDM at speed 3 to apply Wet Glaze 2.0. The pad acts like a sponge, soaking all the product into the pad all the way to the backing plate, leaving very little product on the surface of...

I'm using a flat, grey, 5" pad on a UDM at speed 3 to apply Wet Glaze 2.0. The pad acts like a sponge, soaking all the product into the pad all the way to the backing plate, leaving very little product on the surface of the pad to be used on the paint. I had to clean gobs of Wet Glaze 2.0 from...

How to properly wash your brand new 2011 CLS - Club Lexus Forums

I know many of you are going to the Detail Fest in Stuart, Florida. I am going to go but I can't decide if I should enter my car. I'm very proud of my car and I've never seen one like mine as clean or new looking. I break my butt keeping it that way and it shows. The problem is, it's just an...

Some might remember, I was looking for a good QD to go over 845. I've been liking what Autopians have been saying about OCW. I finally ordered some from AG. I applied it to the whole car today and all I can say is, I'm very impressed. I applied a coat of 845 about three weeks ago so there was...

I have a 7 year old Honda Accord that I maintain myself. My OCD is out of control, as the car is in absolute concourse condition. I spend considerable amounts of time, blood, sweat, and tears keeping it that way. I'm often stopped by complete strangers and complimented on the car. The questions...

Can someone recommend a good quality, non sealant based quick detailer to use on top of 845? Slickness and water beading are critical.

Sorry guys, I posted this over in Car Detailing but didn't get any response. I've used Original Armorall protectant on my tires for years with great results. I've always loved the look. No sling, not too shiny. Recently, I purchased a new bottle, and applied it to my tires and the look was...

I've used Original Armorall protectant on my tires for years with great results. I've always loved the look. No sling, not too shiny. Recently, I purchased a new bottle, and applied it to my tires and the look was flat black. I applied several coats but the look would not get even slightly...

Does anybody even know if they exist? I'm looking for 100% pure cotton, made in the USA wash cloths, without the dobby border. I emailed Sal Zaino and he named several places that have them but they don't. I have found cloths made from 100% Supima cotton, which is grown and processed ONLY in the...

I used my UDM for the first time with a 6 1/2" white pad and ZPC. The results were Ok but I think I may need more cut. If I go with 4" LC orange pads can I stay with the ZPC, and if so, would the surface be LSP ready or would I need to finish down with the white pad and possibly Z-AIO?

Tried out my UDM for the first time this weekend. 6 1/2" white pad with ZPC. Results were Ok, but I think I need more cut. If I go with a 4" orange pad with ZPC would it be LSP ready or would I need to finish it down with a gray pad with Z-AIO, first?
