How do these polishes compare? Right now I have the SSRs and I really like them but am running a little low on 2.5 and am either going to order more of it, or the Menzerna polishes. Will I be able to tell much of a difference between them? Is there something else from Menzerna I should...

Has anybody tried this product? It's got very mild abrasives in it and is to be used after polish, pre-wax/pre-sealant. The pre-sealant caught my eye. I wonder if it doesn't have many oils in it (leads to less desirable look, better durability) or has plenty of oils in it and lends itself to...

I've got one stubborn scratch (that sure doesn't look like much) on one of my cds that only interferes with my favorite song on the cd :mad: I have tried AIO but that didn't work. I noticed Clearkote has a cd repair kit and was wondering what product they may use in that? I have most of the...

I have been trying to work through this conundrum for a while now and can't quite seem to figure it out. Assuming all work is done via PC, what would the difference between these two combos really be? If you're supposed to start with the least aggressive combo, would you go SSR1/polishing pad...

Is there anything I should be careful of when using the 4" pads? Is there any better of a chance of damaging the clearcoat using, say, a 4" cutting pad with SSR2.5? That's about the most aggressive I'll ever get for trouble spots (damn cats on the hood). Can't wait to try them out...

I use the PakShak Ultra Plushes for QD duty and I just love them, but I don't really need the side with the finer nap for QD removal. I use the ultra fines for polish removal, and the CBT for final buffing. So I have been looking for a nice, two sided plush MF for dedicated QD duty. Is there...

This is one of my top three favorite QDs. I have found it works great over any sealant, and contrary to the labelling on my bottle I got a couple of years ago, it has worked great over carnauba as well (however I much prefer the Sonus Carnauba Spritz for 'nuba duty). The smell is heavenly. I...

I am looking to do VM/RMG/sealant/carnauba on my Harley and am wondering which of my sealants will work well here. I have heard EX-P works well over the Clearkote glazes. I have Zaino, Wolfgang, EX-P, OCW, SG, UPP, and NXT in the way of sealants.... if you consider NXT a sealant. Anyways...

Based on the questionable credibility Adam (www.adamspolishes.com) has created for himself through his less than ideal washing techniques portrayed in his online videos, I had to question his recommendation to place MF's in boiling water for deep cleaning. I had never heard this elsewhere and...

I remember reading some speculation that #34 Final Inspection had some stiffer cleaning agents in it than other QD's and was harder on LSP's than other QDs. I wonder if anything else has come up regarding this? I can buy it locally by the gallon, and it really is a pleasure to work with, but I...

Every Tuesday when the new releases come out, I'm in the store and probably buy at least two CDs a week. In the last 2 months, I've probably bought 15 new cds. I've bought the new Disturbed, Ra, Cold, Gorillaz, Slipknot live, Shinedown, Nickelback, Foo Fighters, Seether, Audioslave...

I understand these are the same type of product. With all the rumors buzzing that the new VOC compliant formulation of AIO is not as stout as the original in terms of cleaning ability, I have started to wonder about Prime. How do these two compare in terms of application/removal, durability...

I'm looking for a recommendation on equipment. I'm not actually a home theater fan, per se, because I listen to 95% 2 channel audio (music.) I am going to be picking up a set of Klipsch RF-7 speakers (I love Klipsch sound) to replace my cheap Infinity Studio Monitors but am a little concerned...

How do these two washed compare in terms of cleansing, harshness, scent, gloss, etc? I know they are both spoken highly of, and I just ordered some Bubble Bath, but don't want to order any SS&S if it's going to overlap and be the same kind of product as the TOL.

I searched but didn't find any mention of it. I always like to take a wiff of my products before using them, and boy was I in for it when taking a nice big wiff of this one. I actually got a free 4 oz. sample from Pakshak a little while back (although I already had a full bottle on the shelf...

I have really only had experience with the Meg's 6.5" velcro backed pads. They do a good enough job but I'm always looking for better products. I have seen mention of other brands that I am not familiar with. I'm looking to get some velcro backed polishing and finishing pads. What does...

I polished my GTO with Optimum Polish today via PC and a polishing pad. The polish itself worked great, but the dispenser on the bottle has GOT to go. It either spits out a huge blob of polish on the pad or nothing at all (then it's shake, shake, shake) to get it flowing again, just to get...

I am looking to start topping EX-P with Natty's Blue and am looking for a car wash that is gentle enough not to strip the carnauba off. I know Pinnacle car wash has a reputation for being kind of harsh, as does Meguiar's Gold Class. I currently own the following shampoos: EO Wet Meg's...

I cannot, for the life of me, use these two products together without streaking. Try as I might, S&G always streaks on the hood of my car when I'm using it over Z2Pro and I never get any further than that before getting frustrated and switching over to Quikshine or Z6. I wonder if S&G has a...

I see people using VM/EX-P/Nattys, etc. all the time, but I was under the impression that VM was a glaze that left a lot of oils/fillers behind, and was primarily meant to be used under a Carnauba (CMW, etc.) Wouldn't a pure sealant like EX-P or UPP not bond to a surface just gone over with...
