    QEW - An old friend revisited

    We've had a really tough winter so far in the northeast (2nd snowiest december on record, probably the saltiest/sandiest on record though :) ) so the daily driver has been really taking a beating. Top that with well below average temperatures and you have a recipe for a filth. Today we got a...

    Vinyl Window in the snow

    Wondering what methods you have had success with when cleaning the snow and ice off of a vinyl convertible top window. Car is a porsche boxster, snow frozen onto the rear window (not a heated window) because nobody was home to clean it off before it froze. Suggestions?

    Aquawax = Nanowax ???

    USed aquawax yesterday for the first time, and I swear it is the exact same product as Eagle One Spray Nanowax. Smells the same, feels the same, applies the same, looks the same.... Anyone else experience this or am I going out of my mind? Don't get me wrong - its great stuff, but I never...

    Optimum Polish - Less than Optimum....

    I recently purchased both Optimum Polish and Optimum compound to "refill" my polish stock, which consisted of Menzerna IP and FPII. Based on the reviews and results posted here, it seemed like a viable alternative, and I enjoy trying new products, so I decided to try them. Last night, I...

    Best Place to buy Menzerna

    I'm looking to replenish my supply of menzerna polishes. Specifically, I'd like to try the professional line polishes designed for the harder clearcoats. Is Properautocare the only place to purchase Menzerna in the US? Additionally, if anyone is looking to sell some, I'd be intersted in...

    Optimum Poli-Seal very similar to Eagle One Professional Cleaner Glaze 2

    Just received Optimum Poli-Seal for the first time today (thanks Danase!) and naturally I opened it up and tried it out (I have an old hood that I keep inside for testing). I had purchased a few gallons of Eagle One professional Cleaner Glaze 2 (CG2) from a local "big lots" type store, and my...

    New VOC Laws - Help or Hinder?

    Speaking strictly from a product standpoint, do the new VOC regulations help or hurt detailers. In other words, are the new VOC compliant products better or worse (less diluted? more diluted?) than they were before. Part of me would like to think that some products would have fewer solvents...

    Boiling Wax

    A friend of mine has been applying his collinite using a PC; he applies the wax onto the pad with a butter knife (I do the same), only he "dug" the wax out of the middle, and now his tin of wax is pretty much useless for applying by hand because the wax is all up and under the sides. A common...
