I have a silver Sonata to be detailed on Friday, and was thinking about using my new Optimum products, namely Poli-Seal, Opti-Seal. I was wondering what kind of durability people were getting out of this combo? Also I was thinking of putting a layer of OCW on after the Opti-Seal. Is this...

I have a Makita 9227C barely used in the classifieds F/S, check it out under the power tools section

I have been looking into getting something to replace my PC for a while now. I dont plan on spending 300$ for a flex since I just got a Makita Rotary and im still learning to use it. I would like to get the G110 as ive heard good things about it and its correcting capability. I have a question...

Ive meaning to get some new MF towels and I really want to try Danase Wet Glaze. Problem is not too many places carry both with good deals. I was wondering if Pakshak still had a coupon code? I ordered from them a few years ago and remember AUTOPIA was 10% off, but now it doesn't work?

After reading the thread about PO85 and 106ff I have a few questions. I already own FPII and also use Megs 105 and 205. My personal car is a 2006 Civic Si and I know that the paint on that is ungoldly soft. I wanted to get PO85 as a Jeweling step but it looks like FPII would be better for...

So it has been a while since I have really sat down and logged onto autopia, about a year or so. There are some new things that I found interesting enough to buy and try out, ex. Megs 105/205, new CCS pads for the rotary. Thing is, I see alot more talk about the Flex nowadays, I currently have a...

hello all, I was wondering if anyone knows of a software, preferably free, that I can use to make a flyer on. I dont need anything fancy, just a few graphics and then an explanation of my services and costs.

Hello everyone Im looking to make a flyer for my business which i am currently working on expanding in my college New Venture Creation class. I remember seeing a template or an example of a flyer floating around here a while back, or maybe on a detailing product venders website. Would...

I recieved two LSP's from finish kare a while back. My parents got them for me at some point but I have yet to use them. I am curious as to the durability of these two following the thread war started with them a while back. I had these products at the time but was unaware they were what the...

I just recieved 6 applications of aquapel in the mail from an ebay auction. The directions state that it needs to be applied in temps over 50 degrees, no problem with my heated garage. But they also say about having a clean windsheild. I have VM on it right now and was wondering what I should...

I tried to search this subject and I cannot remember any posts about collinite being used as a topper. I know it has great durability alone, but say putting it over SG or Z2, would it remove any of the Z2 or SG. Their can says detergent proof but it still may be able to remove some of the layers...

Hi All, Soon I will be doing my g/fs parents cars- Red Hyundi Tib and a light greenish Hyundi Sonata. I plan on using the Klasse Twins. Now my problem is that after ive detailed them ive been asked by my g/fs mother to buy her some "wax" that will protect it after the klasse wears off. Problem...

OK, so this weekend I have a 4 day break as it is fall break at my college. I plan on winterizing my volvo over this time. My plan is SSR3 in areas needed followed by 2 then 1. Now here is where I am stumped. I either want to use Merenza FP or VM before I use Zaino. I have the Klasse Twins but...

OK so ive used the search function to no avail, and I know ive seen posts on this subject, or ones like it before. But in a few weeks I will begin to "winterize" my volvo. First the necessary compounds via Pc, then id like to do FP before AIO which I will then follow with 4 or 5 coats of SG...

Well since I did not succesfully upload any of my pics I figured I might as well share what I have found regarding the 4 Carnuba waxes I have used. Zymol Volvo Got this stuff years ago for Xmas. It does give the paint some depth but its about the same as P21S only 30 bucks more and a bit...
