I have a front lip on my car made of FRP/GRP (fiberglass reinforced plastic), my mechanic accidentally bumped it into a concrete parking stop and slightly chipped it. It's mostly on the bottom of the lip and is barely visible. Not a big deal to me, and is definitely not worth repairing...

I've just noticed that if I look at my car under fluorescents, I can see fine pitting all over my car. I've never noticed it otherwise and the car does look good. I don't have a huge arsenal of products, but I tried wetsanding an area with 2K, a PC with M105 (yellow) then M205 (orange), and...

I just switched from UPGP to FK 1000p recently and while I really like 1000p, the last few times its rained (~5x), i've gotten white powerdery looking spots in various places on my car. The spots wash off easily but since I've never seen this before, I'm guessing its the 1000p that's...

I've always had the problem of my rear wheels slinging crap against the sides of my rear bumper, but after going from 255 to 275 tires, its absolutely ridiculous. It seems to be a BMW thing as my older 5 series did the same thing. Does anyone have any recommendations on what product I can...

I bought an 01 740 last year. I had it detailed after I bought it, however the orange peel is pretty bad and is starting to drive me nuts. The paint is all factory. The only tool I have is a PC, which I'm pretty proficient at. First, do I need to wetsand, or is there some heavy...

Now that the weather sucks, I go to the coinop and spray off my car few days. I have been using the presoak at the carwash, but I was wondering if there is a better product that will work well as a presoak that I can spray on my car to loosen the dirt before I rinse my car off? My car has...

It seem like everyone uses microfiber towels to apply/remove product as well as dry their cars. I have a stash of probably 100+ cotton towels. Is it okay to use them or do I really need to invest in some microfiber towels? Some of them have been washed more than a few times and arent so...
