I forgot to do a chemical decon before applying my LSP, which is TW Flex Graphene spray, a durable spray "coating". I wanted to use Griot`s Iron and Fallout Remover beforehand, but forgot. Will it still work even after applying the LSP? I know I`ll most likely have to reapply the Flex spray...

I'm trying to decide on a new LSP to try out on my silver 911 garage queen.  I only drive it 1k-2k miles a year, on nice summer days, so protection and durability aren't big concerns.   So far I've been using P21S Concours Carnauba, which I like very much, but I'm thinking of trying a...

Hi all, I had a body shop paint my car a couple of months ago, and I'm ready to polish out the buffer trails they left for me. I've never used the Meguiar's twins before so I'm not sure what I'll need. I'll be using a Flex 3401 with LC foam pads. Do you think 205 will be enough to remove the...

Let's say I'm using M105 with a medium cutting pad, and 205 with a finishing pad. The car is a '97 Porsche. How many times can I do this polishing regime before the clear becomes too thin?

IMO, P21S makes some of the best products but sheesh, their spray bottles are beyond horrible. The sprayers that come with TAW and the wheel cleaner dribble so bad that you get more product on the ground and dripping down your arm than on the car. By contrast, the spray bottles that my...

Hi guys, I haven't posted in a long time here but I'm looking for some advice. I have a 1997 Porsche 911 that I'm going to be taking on a 4,000 mile road trip this summer, and I want to apply some good protection that will withstand the elements during the length of the trip in all kinds of...

Has anyone tried this stuff yet, and how does it compare to the regular P21S carnauba?

For Z-5 Pro, am I likely to get better results by hand or by using a PC 7424? The car is 2 days old, German, and this is its first detail. I have already washed it with Dawn, then clayed, then washed again with Z-7. Next step is Z-AIO, then Z8, then Z-5 Pro x 2, then CS. The Z-AIO will be...

I understand what scratches look like, and spider webbing, and swirls. But lately everyone seems to love using the term "marring", as if there was some common understanding of what it is. What is it? Is it rub marks? I'll bet everyone on this forum would have a different definition of what a...

I'm not a pro, but I'm kinda anal about my car's appearance and I've got a new Porsche 911 on order. When it arrives I want to give it a full exterior detail to make sure the paint starts out perfect. My understanding is that these cars come over with rail brake dust, sea salt, and other crud...

New guy here. I've been using microfiber towels for detailing but I have several questions about them: 1. How do I get the darn stains out? The clothes washer gets most of the dirt out, but the faint stains stay forever. Any ideas to get them perfectly clean? 2. Is it okay to use them...
