For those of you that use Amazing Roll Off as your APC, can this be dilited for different uses like other APCs for Interior, Wheels, Tires, Engines. It says to just spray it on full strength and hose off, but what about for interior use? And have you tried diluting it for tires, wheels...

Hello, I am wondering if there is such a thing as a safe APC to use as far as health reasons go. I am by far no chemist and dont know what the different ingredients mean so are there certain things to look for or ones to definitely stay away from? Is an alkaline cleaner safer then an acidic...

Can anyone tell me if the damage in the picture below is fixable? The chrome bumper you see had what looked like some minor pitting form sitting. So in the pass I have had good luck with Mothers Mag & Aluminum metal polish on chrome(I know it doesn't say chrome on the can). So I put small...

I read and saw a few videos on this method the other day and figured i would get you guys opinions here. Has anyone tried to remove dents using the dri ice method? Does it really work and what were your steps? Does this in anyway effect or damage the paint/clearcoat? In the videos on youtube...

For those of you who mix AW with a QD like FC&S, what ratios work best for you. Would 1:1 or 3:1 QD:AW be to much of a ratio? I use alot of QD for wiping down door jambs engines, and other hard to reach areas and would like to add some protection to the QD so these areas are being protected...

There seems to be alot(can't keep track of all of them) of AIOs now on the market with some of them leaving a sealant behind for longer protection, but which one(s) have the best ability for correction or swirl removal, not hiding. I am looking for a good one step to speed up details that people...

Does Meguiars manufacture their own spray bottles or is there a company out there that supplies them? I like the spray heads on the Meguairs spray bottles of their QD's and QID, and would like to purchase some 32oz bottles if I can find a place thats sells them. thanks

Hello, can a spray sealant such as AquaWax be used on exterior textured trim without any staining or white residue left behind? Has anyone used AW on their textured trim with good success? If not are there any sealants or waxes out there that can be used on textured trim to protect it and give...

I just bought these Cooper tires for my Explorer last spring and I have noticed that the outside of the tire is darker then the inside half of the tire. The outside is black like a normal tire and the inside half is like a light gray color! Is this tire browning or just junk tires? I hate the...

A few question for you rotary guys. I have read on here many times to keep the pad flat and avoid polishing edges, what do you guys mean by "Edges", do you mean the actual edges of the panel or do you mean the edges of the panel creases, or both? Most car today do not have a flat panel, there...

Does anyone use an APC to clean their wheels and tires instead of a dedicated wheel &/or tire product. If so, what dilution is safe to use on all rims and also on the tires so they don't brown from being to harsh. I generally use either Purple Power or Orange Blast for an APC. thanks

Has anyone experienced any issues with there engine over a period of time that was caused from many years of engine detailing?
