    Pre Treating Panels Prior to Washing

    When I don`t get a chance to do my regular weekly wash on our cars - there always seems to be some tougher spots that don`t come completely clean w just a normal wash. The majority of the time it`s the rocker panels and fenders behind the wheels. I`m thinking maybe pre-treating/pre-soaking...

    Water Spots

    I`m forced to wash in the sun. That`s the bottom line. And while I think I may have found a solution for a full sun shampoo which I have yet to try (McKee’s 37 Sio2 Auto Wash) I still occasionally get water spots on my paint and windows no matter how fast I dry. My local water must be LOADED w...

    ONR as quick detailer

    Im beginning to think ONR might be my new quick detailer. Every time I do an ONR wash I`m impressed by how clean the car is without any streaks, overspray, smears, or anything that shows in the sun. How many of you guys have gone to ONR as your go to quick detailer? Sent from my SM-T810...

    Griots Garage Rolling Sit-On Creeper

    I bought this a few weeks ago and like it so much I wanted to do a quick review of it. This is actually my first review of any product since I have been on the forums (2005) so I figure it`s time. I had been using a Craftsman rolling stool for years and my two biggest issues w it were (1) The...

    Soap In The Sun

    Can you guys recommend a good car wash soap to use in the sun? I know ideally I shouldn’t be washing in the sun but the way the sun hits my driveway it’s either I wash very early in the morning – which is VERY unlikely on the weekends – or later on at night. Later on in the day doesn’t work...

    HD Speed Pointers

    Just picked up a bottle of HD Speed. It`s a new product for me as I`ve always used Optimum Poli-Seal as my "All in One" in the past. Any pointers on using it? Does it dust a all? What speed on my Griots DA? Do I need to work it in until it breaks down like a polish or work it in quickly and...

    Pump Sprayer

    Has anyone found a pump sprayer that they actually like? I`ve bought two of them already from the Big Box home improvement stores and both of them broke. Garbage... I need something for pre-soaking panels for ONR washes... Thanks!

    Incredisponge for ONR/rinseless

    I want to switch over from the GD wash method to the one bucket method as far as rinseless washing is concerned. I just didn`t like the fact that I had so many MF`s to wash w the GD method. Just knowing that I had to wash a load of MF`s after every wash was sort of discouraging me from doing...

    Polishing by Hand

    Hi What do you guys suggest I use for polishing spots by hand where I can`t fit my Griots Garage DA? I`ll be using Meg`s 205. A Micro Fiber pad maybe? Yellow wax pad?

    Nicest Car Ever Made

    Im thinking this might be a cool thread. My buddy and I were having a discussion the other day about the nicest car ever made. Of course it`s all subjective but that`s the point. I came up with three and honestly can`t pick a winner between them. So if you guys had to pick the nicest looking...

    Grandpa`s 1951 Packard

    In 1951, my Grandfather purchased a brand new Packard 300 Touring Sedan. I had heard about it from my Mom but I wasn`t around to see it (he sold it before I was born). I did some research on it and it looks like it was a pretty cool car. The thing was a beast! 3,900 pounds! Lets just say I would...

    Solution Finish - Window Rubber

    Wondering if anyone has tried this on rubber window trim. The rubber trim at the base of the windows on my TA always looks like crap no matter what I try (303, PERL, A All, Optimum Protectant). I`m thinking I might give this a try....
