Hey everyone! My name's Dan Sherman. I used to be active on Autopia back in the day, but I've been MIA ever since college...happened. Being 1000 miles away from my car got in the way of detailing. So did drinking. LOL Anyhow, I'm currently interning for a small NYC market research/consulting...

Hey all you other college-bound HS seniors out there...have you been hearing good/bad news from colleges? My scorecard's looking down and out so far. Applied to 13 colleges, heard from 8, only got into 3. Hell, I got waitlisted by a SAFETY. Just wondering how many of y'all are in the same...

Has anyone tried this stuff yet? How does it compare to UPPS, OCW, etc.?

Hi everyone, I love the Chemical Guys Spider Buff compound and the Diamond Cuts are alright too, but has anyone tried the CGC compounds? How do they compare to other brands? Thanks in advance! :spot

Wow, yet another Turkish hacker got in. I felt bad for FK1 the first two times, but you would think they would try to do some upgrades or something to bolster the security. Now it's just funny.

Just wondering if anyone who owns a last-generation Grand Cherokee would like to comment about the paint quality. I can't get my father's dark blue metallic to do what I want it to. Compounds, that normally don't dust, cake up and spit all over the place; polishes don't leave a squeaky...

I think I can help you out. The CG website gives too much information and is rather contradictory, but I have tried out all three now, so here are MY brief overviews and the situations in which each should be used: SYNTHETIC DETAILER: This has some cleaning ability, but it is certainly no...

I know it is always recommended that carnaubas go over sealants, not the other way around, and that sealants cannot be used over glazes. However, some people have fine results with particular sealants over particular glazes. Also, certain manufacturers say it is okay to layer sealant over...

Any reviews or opinions on ClearKote Car Wash? Bob has some great deals running on the CK stuff at Danase, so I'm thinking of picking some of this up. Thanks in advance!

To those who have used both CG washes, which do you like better and why?

Can some of you Chemical Guys junkies out there compare Pro Detailer and Extreme Synthetic Detailer for me in the areas of cleaning ability, ease of use, and final finish? TIA.

Product Name: Chemical Guys Leather Cleaner and Pure Extreme Leather Conditioner, thanks to Bob (danase.com) for the very generous samples! Product Container: Perfectly stable, round 16oz. bottles. Product Labeling: The label is not laminated, so it is bothered by water. The description...

Well, I just got my order from our sponsor Danase for some CG stuff. I QD'd then applied Collinite to the Lexus ES today, so here's my take on Pro Detailer. Product Name: Chemical Guys Pro Detailer w/Carnauba Picture and Manufacturer Claims: Here Test Conditions: Silver Lexus ES300...

Have any of you ChemicalGuys junkes out there tried Factory Sealant ? The whole "no cure-time" thing sounds awesome!

I went to compare prices on some PB products I want by the spring recently and I noticed Autogeek and PAC, which normally have good prices on the whole Poorboy's range, are selling everything at retail prices. I went down the distributor list and found that only one (sportscarcare.com) had...
