    Inexpensive WalMart no rinse washes...

    In my quest to find a OTC no rinse I hit the cleaning supplies isle at WM. I found 2 potential floor cleaner products that fit the criteria. The first is Murphy's Oil Soap which claims to be rinseless and safe for painted surfaces such as cars. Contrary to the name MOS does not contain oil but...

    PC finishing polish technique...

    With the advent of Megs UC and 105 which leave such nice finishes for compounds it seems as if the final polishing technique can be changed. In the past you'd compound and then have to use a fairly aggressive polish to remove the hazing. With UC and 105 the finish is so nice you can move to your...

    Pearl Glo

    Stopped in Big Lots last week and was looking around and found a bottle of Pearl Glo. It's made by Kit and is acrylic based. That got me interested enough to buy a bottle. I applied it to the hood of my Miata which doesn't have very nice paint-lots of rids. It claims to fill but if it does it...

    Duplicolor vinyl and fabric paint...

    Well, seeing that my car is 10 years old the dash has started to fade. Interior dressings really didn't improve the situation much so I decided to look for a more permanent solution. I picked up some Duplicolor vinyl and fabric paint. First, be careful to match the paint to your interior trim as...

    Cleaning a canvas convertible top...

    Our Camaro has developed green spots on the convertible top. They are either mold or pollen that has embedded itself into the fabric. I had a hard time finding something that would remove them. I recently tried Folex and a scrub brush. That resulted in a major improvement. The top is black and...

    Issues with Megs Ultimate Compound...

    I bought my bottle of Ultimate compound about a month and a half ago. I used it once and it's been inside since then. I went to use it tonight and it turned into very thin water like consistency. I went ahead and used it with a Festool wool pad which I picked up at a local wood working shop...

    Environmental protection-how do you measure it?

    Based on some comments in other threads I wonder what is the consensus for measuring environmental protection that any product offers(this thread is not product specific)? As for me, I've always relied first on a visual inspection. This includes what sticks to the LSP after washing, how...

    After seeing the TV commercials and Billy Mays making it look so easy I just couldn't resist the magnetic pull of this product when I found one sitting on the shelf at Pep Boys. My curiosity really wanted to know if it worked as easy as they show on TV-all for only $13. First I tried it out...
