This is a little different from the usual durable question, in that I am specifically looking for products that fill light swirls and give a carnauba-type look. Werkstat Carnauba does ok in this regard. IMO Blackfire does as well, though it actually contains no carnauba, it does in my opinion...

How well does opticoat resist marring? I've read that it helps, but can anyone give an idea of how much? Thanks. Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk

I'm looking to purchase a new toyota truck and would like opinions on paint on these vehicles, and if color has an influence. I'm interested in toyota because of my experience with a couple of other toyota products, which were mechanically very well made. My concern is that the paint may not...

These are the ones with cut between white and orange. They are called "heavy polishing", while the more popular green pads are polishing/finishing and are close to black foam material. I'm just wondering what are your impressions of the coarse green foam. It doesn't seem very popular.

Basically a sprayable version of 1000P. Interesting... 1000L-28: Sprayable HD Mold Release Wax

I don't understand why this is done. It's not like you can keep it a secret, if you drive the car down the street, there's your plate for all to see. I would understand if these were pics of people street racing or something, but a lot of times it's just joe blow's suburban parked in the...

I've seen about an equal number of posts from people who either 1) think M205 finishes off as good or better than anything on the market and 2) can't get it to finish down well (even seen some people say 105 finishes better) and follow it with Ultrafina or soemthing similar. So which is it???

I think I have convinced myself that LSP makes almost no difference in the appearance of my cars, but for some reason I keep buying more! A quick count in my garage showed seventeen different LSPs. What's worse is I can only remember actually using up and reordering two of these (AJ and AJT)...

What is recommended for weekly maintenance? I normally just wipe down the interior with either a diluted mix of 303 cleaner or 1Z cockpit premium, but just skip the seats because I don't know if either of these is a good idea for leather. I'd think the CP would be good, since it would remove...

Head to head test of the AIOs I have in my garage (I didn't test DG 105 or Prime Strong, due to similarity with others in the test): Klasse AIO Werkstat Prime Acrylic Werkstat Prime Carnauba Duragloss 501 and threw in LSPs for comparison: NXT 2.0 (liquid) Collinite 915 Photos...

Can anyone provide experience with both? I really like Z8, but it is expensive (especially considering its the only Zaino product I use anymore) and FK425 offers anti-static. Would FK425 be a more economical option? Thanks, Billy

Anyone use FK 425 over Werkstat?

This was not easy for me, which is why I'm posting. I've tried a few times before doing different things (more/less product, dampening pad, high/low speed, etc) and nothing seemed to work. I'd either get no cut or a little bit of correction, but end up adding additional micromarring at the...

I have and like Prime Strong, but it can be difficult to use in warm weather since it flashes so readily. Can anyone give a comparison between Prime Strong and ZAIO? Interested in 1) cut, 2) ease of use (particularly by machine in warm weather) and 3) anything else you want to mention. Thanks...

I was applying a 2nd layer of Collinite 915 to my truck when I saw that I was getting some wax holograms. I've had problems with this before, and this is discussed in other threads (about 476S and 915). I was getting pretty ticked off, since I couldn't get rid of them by reapplying the wax or...
