    Is there a bonding issue immeadiately following a QD?

    Lets say you wash a car one evening, Hit it with some QD the next day to touch it up (we'll use #34 for instance) then immeadiately follow with a carnuba or sealant. Will the topper bond to a fresh layer of QD? or does it depend on the product?

    Question about VM products?

    I guess except their Moose wax w/ carnuba, the other two: Moose wax and vanilla moose glaze are considered a polish w/ light cleaning abilities? They don't interfere with each other by layering or by topping other products?

    Clearkote's VM Glaxe & Poorboys EX-P

    I am a first time user of these products and I must say I'm very pleased. VM is very very easy to work with and you can remove it right away and comes off with such ease. I used VM glaze topped with EX-P, turned out to be a nice combo as alot of other Autopians have already found out. I...

    Simple Green.... Any Users??

    I use Simple Green as part of my detailing arsenal, and was wondering if anyone else does. I detail on the side for leisure and to make a little extra $$. Its not to expensive by the gallon and it goes a long way diluted, which is how I use it. It works well on rims, wheel wells, engines etc. I...

    WW Towels..... Just switched to them

    After years of using a chamois I finally bought a big blue and a little blue WW towels from CMA. Is it necessary to wash them after each dry? Would letting them air dry after each use be sufficient say after a few washes then throw them in the washer. Again it also applies if you end up picking...

    Z-16 Tire shine

    I detailed an 03 Grand Am and used Z-16 for the first time to try it out. I must say I was very impressed. It left a very nice "Satin" finish for those who like that look instead of a high gloss. I applied 2 coats. My only complaint is that it is in a bottle that you have to "squeeze" the...
