I want a quick way to clean my bathroom, anyone have this? Are the bristles stiff enough to get a good cleaning for tile in the bathroom? Send me a PM if you want to sell yours!

I was detailing my truck the other day, and noticed I couldn't get the sharp mirror like shine it has on the non polished parts. I started off with #9, and a green polishing pad (PC@5) from Excel. After several trys, although it is swirl free I could not get a sharp reflection out of it. Since...

I did 3xSSR2.5 w/ Excel orange pad little damage to the swirls. Time to move up to a more aggressive polish or is this something a PC can't handle? The car belongs to my gf, and she said her dad use to remove tree sap with a razor blade and washed it with dawn with tide(for an exfoliating...

I had my tailgate on my truck detailed a while ago, and the so called pro detailer just went to work on my dirty tailgate with a woolpad x3 and some green chemical. Back then I was amazed at how quickly it removed swirls, then when I looked at it at night, it has a very cloudy look. Today I...

I wanted to order some new Z2 Pro and was wondering if any of you noticed a difference between Z1 and ZFX when using Z2Pro? I ask because I have a full bottle of Z1 and I'd rather get another bottle of Z2Pro, Z8,etc if there really isn't that much of a difference.

Are there any Pro detailers in SoCal that would be willing to hold a ''Learn from a Pro'' day? I feel I can read and read all day but seeing and doing with a guidance of a pro would be really helpful.

Just how good is P21S? I currently use #26 on non white cars and it works well for me. Pretty deep and wet looking on the darker cars, but will the P21S wax take it up to the next level?

I can't seem to get the surface of my windshield ready for the wipers. I use to use Rain-X, but took it off with some glass polish. But after I use the glass polish my wipers don't work as well. Rain hits the glass and does not bead. Makes it very hard to see in the rain, the wipers seem like...

Out of all the PCs out there, I was wondering has anyone have one die on them?

My dad has this Del Sol that has never been waxed, and it looks like it was repainted by a low end body shop. I used a Propel Green with SMR X2 and it make it a little bit glossier, then moved up to Propel Yellow with FI-II and it made a more noticable difference. Should I continue with...

This is what I did recently on my Tundra tailgate which suffers from what I believe to be compounding haze leftover from what I thought was a pro detailer. He didn't wash my tailgate before going at it with an unknown product and a dewalt rotary with a wool pad. My tailgate has been dull for the...

I was wondering if such thing exist and if not would you guys and girls like to create one. I was on autopia about 3 years and I am barely starting to get back into it. I don't even remember my old username. It seems like there is much confusion about which pads work with which products, and...

I am about to order a kit from Excel detail and wanted to know some opinions on removing wax/sealant with a bonnet type product. Does the surface of it get gummed up with wax fast ? Is it really that much faster taking it off or should I save the money and do it by hand. Im asking because my...
