I'm sorry but I just re-read the page at http://www.autopia-carcare.com/inf-pc7424.html and I think we are being conned by this member. If you look closely at the door handles you can see they are different. The after picture looks like the truck is chromed and he is trying to pass it off as the...

Do you apply a glaze or a scratch remover first? Is a glaze a polish?

I have Meguiar's Scratch Remover 2.0 and 3M's Hand Glaze(polish?). Which do I apply first? Isn't the SR2 more abrasive than the 3M Glaze? So the Glaze goes on after the SR2? Right?

Has anyone tried these pads? How are they when applying pressure to the outer edge of the pad? Are they stiff, or flexible like a regular backup pad? Edge Foam Pads

Hi peeps! Nice forum. Well, I'm off to look around.

I noticed today that I can grab the pad while it is spinning and stop it. All the PC does at this point is oscillate back and forth. How am I supposed to remove scratches and hazing if the PC isn't even spinning?! I wish I had been told this prior to it being recommended. I would have bought a...

This is truely sad. If you go to the Meguair's website at http://www.meguiarsonline.com/ you will see that they photoshoped the car image to reflect the city. Why?! They make good products. Why do they have to use a hacked image to illiustrate the result of their products?

I'm a fairly strong guy but it's a nightmare trying to get the pads off the hook & loop backup pad. The Backup Pad is made by Diskit and the pads are made by Meguiar's. Are all Backup Pads and Pads created equal, as far as H&L is concerned?

I used Mother's paste Carnuba Cleaner Wax and, IMO, it is better than the Mother's Liquid Carnuba Wax. Notice; the paste wax is cleaner wax and the liquid wax is regular carnuba wax. I'm not saying paste is better than liquid. I mean the cleaner wax is better than the regular wax. Why?

Sorry for taking so long to scroll down and see this forum. :wavey

When I wash my truck i always have major water spots left over. I already have a water softener but it doesn't get rid of the spotting at all. Does anyone utilize an inline hose attachment to eliminate water spotting? I own the Mr. Clean Autodry system but the truck is so big that I would only...

I have a heat gun and I want to apply heat to remove the rest of the badging on my truck. I'm kind of afraid to hold the gun on the paint too long for fear of burning the paint. If I set the gun on low(450') can I hold it there for ~5 minutes w/o damaging the paint? Has anyone ever heard of...

Hi, this is my first post. I'm into detailing but I'm not up on all the anacronyms like FP and IP. Can someone fill me in on the most common ones?
