Anyone have a good recipe for window cleaner? Any favorite OC cleaners? My Mom always used newspaper and water with Vinegar . Worked good back then for the house windows anyway. She also used some stuff that was called window wax and it was real pink looking stuff. You put it on and let it dry...

Bought some Duragloss #831 to try on my aluminum diamond plated truck bed tool box and it was worthless. That broke my heart because I'm a Duragloss fan through and through! The instructions say to spray it on and let it sit for a minute or two and then spray off with a high pressure hose, Did...

Who really makes the "Best" scratch cover/filler/remover wax, polish or sealer? The best I ever found was Turtle wax scratch and swirl remover and it just did a fair but better job than some of the others I have tried. Mothers did a close second on my black Suburban a few years back but I...

From what i have been reading this Zymol is about the most expensive wax you can buy but I don't hear much about it on here. Just seen an artical where it sells for $475.00 for a small jar of the stuff. Is it really that good! If it is I would think that more of you rich guy's would be using it...

Some of you know that I'm in the Duragloss "Fan" club but it just keeps getting better. This morning I had to go to Charleston for some medical test and when I got back I drove down the mountain to our little town of Clay, WV. They are replacing our bridge across the Elk river and I never seen...

Has anyone else tried this stuff for interior detailing? My neighbor gave me a bottle of it today. It also states that it is a super sun /UVA/UVB for all plastic, vinyl and leather. Easy to use and leves a nice clean feel on the dash. Mike

After Duraglossing my Tacoma I decided to really clean and detail the inside . I cleaned the seats, seat belts and carpet with Woolite and the dash and all the inside trim with Mean Green and water. It is spotless! Now what is the best protectent for the dash, consul and trim? I always used...

After doing some running around the past two days I rubbed my hand over my hood and felt the tree sap but very little dirt or dust due to the rain the past few day's. I got my spray bottle of AW and a couple of MF towels . After just a light spritz of AW on the hood and wiping it down and...

The inside of my truck is clean and smells good but it really needs more than Armorall or products like that. The first thing I would like to do is use a sponge, hot water and soap, elbow grease and clean it the old fashioned way. Can anyone recommend the best method and the best soap for the...

They asked me if I would please cover my truck and stop using Duragloss for a while. It seems the reflection of the sun off my Toyota Tacoma is blinding the Astronauts in the space shuttle. I swear to you guy's! It's true!, it's true! :lol :heelclick , Mike

Unlike many of you I'm from the old school where unless it was Simonize or Turtle wax you were not waxing or detailing your car the right way. I'm still learning about some of this new wax or whatever it is on the market today that helps make your pride and joy shine like a new born tadpole in...

It seems that I'm posting all the time on here but I'm just trying to learn from you guy's. If I'm asking to many questions just tell me to back off and I'll take my wax and go home with no hard feelings :sadwavey: :D Some of you know that I really like Duragloss AW over Mothers Gold...

Here is another claiming to be the best on the market. In fact they claim that if it doesn't perform the way they advertise they will repaint your car and use there product on it again. If it's that good then why don't we all just use this stuff and every detailer in the land would be out of...

I'm no professional detailer nor do I plan on being one but I do take care of my vehicles and always have ....to a point. I'm a believer that all vehicles were meant to be used and if I just wanted to look at how pretty I can make one I would buy a model and keep it waxed and detailed and...

My hobby is photographing Bear and other wild life here in WV and that means driving some bad logging and mining roads and getting some scratches on my Tacoma. What scratch cover or remover do you feel is the best for a silver colored Tacoma with clear coat. It has quite a few scratches on it...
