Hey guys, long time no post! Anyways, I have an interesting issue here. Usually I like to wax my windshield with Collinite 476S to help with water beading, and it has worked very well. I got new windshield wipers (Bosch Evolution, frameless wipers) a few months ago, and I've noticed that somehow...

I thought I saw a topic on this earlier, but somehow I can't find the thread anymore.. I'm planning on possibly doing a polishing session tomorrow. Problem is, the temperatures are going to be in the 40s. I currently have Meguiars 83/80 and OP/OHC on hand, and would be using a PC to polish. Are...

I was watching Anthony's video (it was great..), and I have a quick question. I've been using Sonus Der Wunder WWMF's to dry the car. I noticed that Anthony used a plush MF. I can understand that WW would be better in a traditional car wash, because one can blot to get rid of the excess water...

This winter, I'm going to be doing mainly a durability test (as opposed to looks) between DG 105 and Collinite 476S. I've split the application into left side/right side. I'm doing PBA 601+DG105x3, and then Collinite 476Sx3. Each layer will be applied at the same time, approximately 24 hours...

I'm looking to do some wetsanding on our car. However, I only have a PC, and I'm reading many conflicting statements as to whether it's possible to remove the sanding marks. I'm looking to get some 5.25 CCS pads (yellow and orange) from Danase, and use it with OHC. Is it possible to remove...

I'm wondering where I should go to buy my touchup paint. Normally I'd just choose the dealer, but I've heard some people mention that the match isn't that good. The car is a 1993 Acura, metallic purple.

I just got DG105 recently, and I'm looking to do some sort of durability comparison between DG105 and Collinite 476S. What I need help is figuring out how I should split the car up with this comparison. I could do a half panel Collinite half panel DG105 for the sake of pictures, but I'm thinking...

I've been using ONR for about a month since I got it. It's much more convenient, and I'll be using ONR for the majority of my washes from now on. The only thing is that tires/wheelwells are hard to clean with ONR, but that's not a major problem. Anyway, here's the thing: When I mix up my ONR...

Weird topic, I know, even for the Hot Tub. We're planning (very last minute) to consider going to Rhode Island for a day and a night. Plan on taking a look at the colleges there (Brown), but we also need attractions that we can go see. Any suggestions?

I was at Target today doing some back-to-school shopping. Naturally, I wandered over to the automotive section to see what new stuff they had. Saw a fire-hose nozzle (Vroom brand) for $6.99. It's pretty much all rubber, so it won't accidentally damage paint or break when you drop it. It has a...

My dad was involved in a minor sideswipe accident a few days ago, and we're probably going to have to have some body work done on the car. A lot of the damage is actually just paint transfer (that I should be able to correct), but there is a fairly big dent on the car. After the insurance...

The past two days I've been detailing my cousin's family's cars. They had two cars that were absolutely TRASHED. Vaccumed once in it's 6-7 year lifetime, and washed maybe once or twice. It was a pain to do the cars... Anyway, I was using Eagle One Cleaner on the wheels, and I was wondering...

I was at Costco today buying a car battery, but they didn't have the one I needed in stock. My question is: can I buy another battery that is similar (in size and battery terminal orientation) instead of buying the specified battery?

Stupid me... Yesterday I was using the white pad that came with the PC to polish out my wheels. However, when I unscrewed the pad, I completely forgot that I had the washer on there. So, now I have no idea where it is... What exactly is the purpose of the washer? Obviously to prevent the...
