    Cleaning/Polishing routine for PPF.. Finally

    I've been struggling with the best routine for keeping up the Paint Protection Film on the hood of my Car. The Audi is Black so every little thing shows. Plexus does work to a degree. It will add gloss and hide minor wash swirls. Meguiars PlastX and a similar product from Novous will make...

    ProChem All Fiber Rinse

    I used ProChem's All Fiber Rinse for the first time this weekend and was really impressed. I started out by mixing a couple of ounces with a gallon of water and putting some in my Bissell LGM and did the carpet in my ride. I had cleaned the carpet a month ago with a regular carpet cleaner and...

    Hi everybody, it's me, MorBiD

    Sorry fella's for taking such a long hiatus. About a year ago I decided if I wasn't going to finish the bodywork on my project car I'd have to get rid of it (can't do that). So I hung up my detailers hat and put back on my welding helmet and started replacing body panels. I still detail my...

    Aquapel and Insulator Wax at Harbor Freight Store

    I'm not sure if anyone is still using either of these products but I spied both at a Harbor Freight store while there today. The Aquapel is the Pro formula (Blue Box) which I had to always order over the Internet because no one carried it around here. Price was about $6.45. With the cost of...

    Bissell Spot Bot for $75.00 at Big Lots

    I went to Big Lots yesterday to grab some detailing stuff, they still had a few of Meg's discontinued Wheel Brushes and I grabbed some of the TW Wheel Dressing Applicators. Anywho, as I'm trolling along seeing what else is there I see a table with big boxes on it and on display there were the...

    Snuggle in the Dryer with MF's

    K, I know all about the big no no of using Fabric Softner when washing MF towels but I had this box of Snuggle Dryer sheets laying around that I don't use and decided to try it last week. Well I'm here to say that not only do my MF's come out softer, but they have less lint and are not...

    Tried Turtle Wax ICE Liquid Clay Bar today and have to say...

    I'm pleased with the product and don't feel like I wasted my dough on it. I clay my Audi twice a year during my full detail sessions (Winter Prep, Spring Cleaning) but was looking for something else when the situation doesn't really warrant the aggressiveness of a traditional bar. Evenflow...

    Pinnacle Bodywork Shampoo (a bit underwhelmed)

    I finished up my Meg's Gold Class and it's pretty much the only shampoo I used on my Black Audi. Wanted to step up to a boutique brand so I ordered some Pinnacle Bodywork Shampoo. My initial impressions are mixed. Suds (or lack thereof) is what first comes to mind. I've read where others...

    The official Merry Xmas - Happy Boxing Day Thread

    I'm hoping that everyone gets to where they want/gotta go this season to be with family and friends safely. I'm also hoping we all might take time out and remember just how fortunate we all are to have our health, people who care about and love us, and to be alive in these very exciting...

    Aquapel now available at Pep Boys

    I was at Pep Boys today and while checking the shelves out for new items I came across something that I swore was Aquapel but the box was different. Turns out PPG is marketing Aquapel Glass Treatment as both a professional brand (the one we all see in the Blue box) and this one which is sold...

    Am I wasting my Aquapel?

    I applied Aquapel as part of my winter prep for the Audi last year and was really impressed. So I compounded my windshield last night and am going to apply it again. Last year I did the front side windows and the rear glass in addition to the windsheild. Am I just wasting product as there may...

    Metro Master Blaster blows trips breakers?

    I've read through various threads on the Metro Master Blaster (not the little one) and am probaly going to get one. Thing is I've read on some sites that you need to run it on a 20 amp breaker as it will trip a 15 (I guess because of the 18 amp draw from two motors). Can ne1 confirm this...

    Help in Toronto CA

    I'm on holiday's and staying downtown in Toronto. Can ne1 reccommend me a touchless wash in the area which would meet a Autopian's strict requirements (no marring). I just detailed the Audi and don't want to get it all swirled up. TIA MorBiD

    Help (SwirlBuster pad lost it's backing)

    I brought one of these pads back in Febuary and used it maybe once of twice to check it out before putting it up. I started my Winter Prep yesterday and while using the Swirlbuster pad I went to remove the pad from the backing plate and the white backing seperated from the pad (stuck to the...

    #^@!(&#)*# Karcher Electric PW

    K, I'm pretty pissed now. I got a Karcher 3.97M electric PW from Sears last fall (or end of summer) and by spring it wasn't working right (the dreaded cycling issue). So Karcher sent me another one under thier Rapid Exchange program. Well fine by the end this summer that one is doing the same...
