I searched it here, and am hearing two completely different things on it. Some say it causes swirls, then fills them. Others say it works great with no marring. I just received my bottle yesterday, and now I am afraid to use it! I am assuming that if I use it on a clean car, there won't be...

The pic came out a little fuzzy, but she sure is looking wet and glossy! Duragloss shampoo applied via ShMitt Spot clayed with Clay Magic blue Poorboys Natty Blue I plan on adding a layer of Aquawax later to see if it adds anything.

A couple other places, including Zaino reccomend using only 100% made in the USA cotton bath towels for drying. They also reccomend staying away from micro fiber. :think2 I gotta admit I'm confused. I have found high quality bath towels on sale at places like Macys or those bath stores and...

I was picking up a couple Viking MF's, when I saw these Magic Erasers, so I grabbed a box. Take it up to the counter, and it rang up as $1. I didn't have time to go grab more as I was on my lunch, but I'm definitely going after work! Seems like they are the same as the regular ME's. Here's...

I saw this in Wal Mart, and it sounded interesting. I didn't get it though, wanted to see if anyone had used it. Protect All Polish, Wax & Treatment Does It All! I'm not really sure, but it sounds like a QD, wax, polish that can be used on any surface of the car. :hm

I have taken to adding about a capful of ONR to my conventional wash bucket with soap, just seems to give that extra bit of slickness. I have tons of other QD sprays, and wondered if they might help. Would it do any good to add any other type of QD to the wash like Megs, Poorboys, or whatever...

I have decided I want to finally step up to a PC, and looking around at all the detailing and online stores, the prices are pretty much the same. But they all are available with different pad packages, and some have wax and polish as well. Some offer dual sided pads, quick release doo-hickies...

I got a gallon each of Chemical Guys Speed Wipe and Shine, and FK1 425 and I am looking to try other stuff. I have some quality spray bottles from Lowes that hold up to 32oz. I also have a brand new bottle of Aquawax 22oz (Bought two, it's awesome stuff) I am looking to try new stuff like...

For some reason, I keep picking up different QD's. I'm now stepping into the boutique ones too. So far I have most of the off the shelf ones, E1 spray and wipe seems to be the best of these. I just recently got ONR, and mixed up QD from that. This is my current favorite. It cleans great even...

So many threads, most like it, some don't, but I was really intrigued by this stuff so I had to order some. It was delivered yesterday and I wanted to to use it right then, but I have poor lighting in my garage. Luckily I live only about 5 minutes from my work, and usually go home for lunch...

My seats are "Action Leather" (AKA vinyl) with "performance Suede" (AKA, not really suede) inserts. I want something mild as a pre cleaner, I was thinking just some heavily diluted Woolite, then use the Megs leather and vinyl protectant. What does everybody else use for fake leather? :hm

I know there are special MF's for windows, but I am still extremely happy with the way newspaper leaves the windows. Crystal clear and streak free, just gotta wash your hands afterwards.

I went there after reading about finding Meguiars stuff there. I did pick up a couple Meg brushes. But I also stumbled across a creeper stool like this one Torin Big Red Creeper Seat at Truck Parts Pro Shop and it was only $15. No more lower back cramping when doing the lower panels and wheels...

Is there any special product for keeping these crystal clear? Right now they look perfect, clear and smooth. But I know from past experience they start getting scratched, pitted and plain dingy. Anything to do to protect them from that would be greatly appreciated! :thx

I know it's the noobiest of noob questions :nervous: but it still sort of confuses me. Having a black car, it shows dust practically right after you pull it in the garage after washing it. Do I just spray on and wipe off the whole car between washings? Will it mar my finish at all? I will...
