I'll just copy and paste the email I sent to the supplier to make it easy. Thoughts? The info from my recent order is attached. 12 oz. Ultima Paint Guard Plus. I have been using UPGP for years. I just broke out the new bottle I ordered from you yesterday. Has the formula been changed for...

That's my quesiton as we get into spring. Looking for a pro who has experience with Opti-Coat in the Philadelphia area.

I took this image from a before/after in the pro section. I have the exact same scuffing from the seatbelt on the edge of the seat bolster on my tan leather seat on my Saab. Is there anything that can be done about this? I have my routine for leather cleaning/protection I learned here, but...

I just got part of my jet black car repainted due to a deer collision. There is black paint overspray on one of the wheels. Clay bar did not do much. I took my new PC to it and it worked great, but this is a ten spoke wheel and the buffer pad can't get to the sides of the spokes. So I...

Go my hood and left side painted repainted due to a two deer collision. Body shop left a ton of holograms. Must have used a rotary and not bothered with proper steps or did not know what they were doing. Paint job looks good otherwise. Did not notice until after-the-fact when their glaze...

I’ve been on these forums a while and take great care of my car, but up until now have used a pro for swirl removal. Recently I hit two deer and needed the hood and side panels redone on one side. The car came back from the shop with holograms all over the new paint job (they offered to fix...

Just got my car back from a detailer. He cut and polished and then I applied one coat of UPGP at his shop. Car looks great. Now I want to put three more coats of UPGP on to give it that "pop" as well as added protection. Now that all the scratches have been buffed out, I am being very...

I have a 2003 black Saab 9-5 that I bought used two years ago. Thus I do not know the history of paint repair and number of times a buffer may have been taken to the car and reduced the clearcoat. Does the fact that the hood is prone to stone chips mean the paint is too thin to take a PC...

I have access to a heated garage for an hour two every few weeks to wash and wax my car, however I cannot leave the car in the heated garage overnight. I have just really gotten into a DWG topped by UPGP routine. My question is, since it takes 12 hours for UPGP to cure, if I apply it in a...

I just got some DWG which I will top with UPGP. I will be using a foam applticator by hand with the DWG. I know how much DWG to use from their directions and this forum, as well as how to apply and remove. My question is - should I leave the foam applicator dry or should I moisten it for...

I only have passengers in my '03 Saab 9-5 Aero a minority of the time. The drivers seat, not surprisingly, gets the vast majority of the use. These are light tan leather seats and I have used Lexol cleaner and conditioner on all seats every few months. I have noticed the light tan leather...
