Just finished looking through the review section and noticed that when I clicked on VM to read the reviews that in the product description before the reviews are listed some body put a thumbs down in the VM description. This was not part of the review it was in the description of the product...

These three polishes are fairly new and getting some good reviews. The one thing that I find interesting is that people are saying these polishes are as aggressive as the pad you are using. For example you can use a cutting pad and remove defects or use a polishing or finishing pad and get a...

Anybody know where to buy these in Canada?

I bought a 5 quart jug of this at Walmart for $23.00. I have been hearing about how this is much better than Mobil 1 regular synthetic. It's supposed to have more cleaners and additives and be good for 15000 miles. I did some research and talked to Mobil 1 customer support and was advised not to...

I was in Carquest Yesterday in the U.S. and they sell a 1 ounce bottle of Plasti-Kote Touch Up Paint Leveler for about $3.00. It's basicly a paint thinner used to level the touch up blob so you don't have to wet sand. Sounds just like Lanka and the Mothers Touch Up kit but cheaper and I don't...

I would like to know where this pad ranks compared to other cutting pads available. Is it more or less aggressive than a LC Yellow Cutting or Orange Light Cut Pad? Is it more or less aggressive than a Sonus DAS Orange Pad? TIA

Many Canadian Autopians purchase their 303 from Zellers. I was informed by a 303 Customer Service Rep today that Zellers will no longer be selling 303 Aerospace Protectant. Once the current stock on the shelves is gone they won't be replacing it. The good news is that Canadian Tire will be...

Who is using these and how do you like them? How do they compare to Pakshak, Big Blues from CMA, Sonus from Autopia, and Cobra from Autogeek? Thinking of getting some PB WW but want to hear what others think of them. TIA

Which dressing has the most shine? There are many out there. I have 303, Megs #40, Vinylx. Of the 3 Vinylx has the most shine. I usually prefer a matte finish and use the dressings I have because they don't shine too much. This time I need the opposite. I want the dressing with the most shine I...

A Canadian member of Autopia posted about some MF available at Walmart in Canada recently. I stopped in there today to check it out. The MF is in the kitchen and bathroom sections. It's much better quality than the Microtex MF that is sold in U.S. Walmarts and Canadian Tire (same stuff)...

There has been some recent threads about Collinite waxes lately. The two waxes mentioned most are 845 Insulator Wax and 476s Super Double Coat. Apparently 476s and 855 Fleetwax are the same thing. Has anybody used the 915? It's Collinites most expensive wax and according to an email from...

I found some of this at the local Napa. It is supposed to be discontinued in Canada so I thought I would pick it up and give it a try. The problem is that it looks pretty old. I opened the can and the wax looked cracked and chunky, nothing at all like my s100. What is #16 supposed to look like...

I just re- read the write up on the PC that David B did for Better Car Care.Com. According to the article it says you can run the PC off the car battery if you use a 750 watt power inverter. Has anybody done this? How did it work? What exactly is this power inverter? TIA

I am looking for something more abrasive than 3M Perfect it III Rubbing Compound. I'm thinking maybe Power Gloss. I really like the other Menzerna stuff. Problem is that Power Gloss is made for a rotary and I will be using a PC. Anybody using PG with a PC and getting good results? Also how...

From what I have read these seem like very similar products. The hot combo right now seems to be Vanilla Moose and Poor Boy's EX-P. I have the EX-P just wondering if the P21S GEPC would be a good alternative to Vanilla Moose? Any one try GEPC and Vanilla Moose and if so what one did you like...
