    Iron X Application Questions

    When using Iron X - do you spray it on the surface of the car after washing or before? Is there a need to agitate it w a sponge (or something else) after it`s sprayed? I guess what I am asking is what is your step by step process when using Iron X on a full blown detail???

    Polish Angel High Gloss

    I`m thinking about this stuff for my red Trans Am for Friday cruise nights.... Is it basically like a quick detailer that adds some "bling"? Does it offer any sort of protection at all? I`m thinking it would need to be used over a wax or sealant correct?

    Anyone watch this guy on You Tube? His videos are very comprehensive. He`s in the UK so some of the products he reviews are not available in the US. I still can`t believe I watched an hour & 1/2 of him reviewing Microfibers. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_4lRohBzY20wjsFGWS0Jzg

    Meguiar`s Wheel Brightener (D 140)

    Is anyone using this stuff?? I don`t see it mentioned much on here any more. I`m thinking of switching over to the non-acid wheel cleaner (D 143). Wheel Brightener is just such nasty stuff. What would I be losing out on (if anything) by switching over to D 143? Keep in mind I`m not a pro...
