I've been a bit out of the loop with all of the new products that have been coming out, and am looking into trying out some of the "permanent" coatings out there. Is there a consensus best between Opti-Coat, CQarts, and Wolf's? Can either of these be used on fiberglass and/or BARE polished...

Well I'd neglected the car for a really long time, and it was time for some TLC in the FL heat.... I like this one, because its not apparent that the car needs to be dropped Heres the skinny on the process: Body Foam with Meg's gold class (1 gallon for $10 at Tarjei)...

I already have their Ez-Creme glaze and like it a lot. Any other must haves? They are having a very hefty sale right now.

Waterless Detailing Waterless Wash System Has anyone tried this stuff? If it works like advertised, it should be a great addition to every detailer

I recently got a Porter Cable and have been using it with the 1Z Black Bottle polishes and I can't seem to get a perfect surface. I am getting some buffer trails and can't understand why, as I am doing it by the book. I am thinking that it maybe the polishes, so I was wondering what is the best...

A friend of mine with a GTO always tells me that he wants me to detail his metallic black GTO because mine (spice red metallic) looks so good. I wash, clay, cleanse with p21s, and polish with 1Z polishes. Now, he wants durability AND looks. So, here are most of my products, which combo will...

I have a bottle of this on my shelf, but havent tried it yet. Anyone have personal experience with this unique polish?

I need a heavy cutting foam pad or a wool pad to remove heavy fiberglass oxidation with the PC. Any ideas as to where I can find either locally?

I am in the proces of polishing my dad's 27ft Four Winns boat with Megs 49 to remove oxidation and he wants the most durable protection. What would offer better durability in the water and agains the sun's radiation? DG 501 and Collinite 870 are the most durable sealants that I have for boat...

Just to get some detailing info in here (even tho the car is a touch dirty) - Paint is wearing DG Aquawax over WGDS, DG 105 on wheels for protection, Surf City Tire Gel in some of the pics, body washed with DG 901 and wheels with ONR The wheels are a bit dirty/hazy in some of the pics, but...

I just replaced my 04 Yamaha GP1300R with a new 07...in black. The dealer made damn sure that it was squeeky clean, but they left a path of destruction behind. The marring isnt too bad, and most people would never notice. Whats the best line of attack? I can do by hand or with PC (orange and...

The wheels need a wash and are a bit hazy from the storms we had around here...

I might be getting polished CCWs in the near future, and might not have the time to maintain them all the time. I am looking for a sealant for them that will protect them from sea salt, possibly sand, and water etching. I live in FL, so water repellance would deffinately help, and since I might...

Im thinking of picking up these used CCW 19s for my GTO, but they have some scratches it seems and also looks like some "micro-marring" from improper washing/polishing I presume. Heres the pics: I know that the pics suck, but I cant help that... Thanks
