Can someone please give me a quick education on window tint film. My younger son is wanting to tint the windows on his car (that he does not have yet) but I like a planner. I told him my experience is that it is a PITA to keep swirl free. The window rollers mark the film and it looks like...

I purchased the Rupes 15 with some Yellow and Blue pads and also the yellow and blue polishes. I ordered more pads with the last sales and my free gift (Thanks Ray) was the Rupes blue MF disc's. When would I use those? Instead of the blue pad? Trying to determine the difference between MF...

How does the new UHS fit in with the Green and Yellow Polishes? Just ordered the Rupes standard kit last week and now I see another color pad and polish.

I am concerned that if I purchase a Gloss Coat syringe to re-coat over my wife MDX (It has OC 2.0) I will not have enough product to do the wheels and paint (Jambs) 2 coats all around?. I had plenty of product with the 2.0 but the Gloss coat has 50% less? Can someone verify that there is...

Just throwing this out there: Has anyone used their DA to polish a stone countertop? I have a dull Marble countertop at my business that I want to try to fix. I actually have the diamond pads in 1500, 2000 and 3000 grits. It say to use a sander, but I think that a commercial sander is pretty...

Just arrived, now all I need is some warm weather.

With all that's been posted lately I wanted to post this to see if we agree with the following 3 statements that I think are the universal truth's in detailing. ( After learning the proper wash and decon,) 1. The single most important part of creating that Show Car Shine is the ability to...

I have a Rupes 15 kit on the way to me. All of my cars need a light polish and a coating and I decided to make the investment and try out the Rupes. I know the attraction is suppose to be quick correction and smooth operation. I am looking forward to seeing that for myself. Is the larger...

A funny (Old) detailing Story This is a repost from 2010 I found when looking back to reference a date I applied a coating. Since the boards seem slow, I though I would repost this: Just read a story on the forum about dirty wheel and tires that reminded me of a funny story I thought I'd...

I decided to take advantage of a north of 32 degree day to clean up the DD driver. This picture is take Sunday even though I washed it Saturday simply because I did not have my phone with me after the wash. This is as close to detailing as I get in the close to freezing temps. This was a full...

I have a friend whose wife drives an older model BMW. He was telling me how expensive it was to purchase headlight assemblies. He told me he purchased an "as seen on TV" kit that did not work at all. I told him that I would be happy to take a look and try to polish them up, but that I have...
