    plastic lens polish...

    I polished the wind deflector on my old MGB today, and removed 40 years of scratches and swirls etc :D, using 4000 grit and Menz 3.02. I noticed there are various plastic lens polishes, like the DG version, and wondered what, if anything, they offer over a typical abrasive? many thanks

    DG111 over 105?

    Have some Duragloss 101, 105 & 111 samples and been playing with them. So far the 105 impressed me the most with a great wet look and deep gloss. Tonight I plan another wash and layer of 105 to see how that improves further. I was wondering if a layer of 111, after the next wash, as a final...

    Techniques for ONR and bugs?

    Getting into ONR now...but on my last wash I really struggled with bugs etc on the front end. I used a pre-spray of ONR at QD strength soaking 1 panel ahead of where I was washing, and had to pre-soak the front twice and still go over it several times to get them off, using a fair bit of...

    Z2 over Jeffs Prime Acrylic?

    Been looking at Zaino stuff recently and wondering about an easy way into the system. Just saw a post elsewhere where Z2pro was used over Prime Acrylic. Would there be any bonding issues here, as I know Zaino is a bit fussy? thanks

    Audi vs First Duragloss Detail

    I have been really keen to try the Duragloss range, having read loads about it on Autopia and other forums, and not seeing it used that much here, so when a little bag of samples popped through my door this morning and i noticed the rain had decided not to fall, I couldnt resist.... The car...

    OCW v2 over OS?

    About to grab some ONR in bulk and contemplating some OVW v2 at the same time, to save shipping etc. I've never used the stuff, but hankered after it for a while as I rather like the idea of a product that can layer up over time, provide protection and add to the look. My question is whether...

    Wool virgin requests advice...

    Well today i received this little lot :cool: I've never used wool before so am really looking for some tips from the masters around here. I have a scrap bonnet/hood as my first victim, but am wondering how these compare in technique to the foam I am more used to eg RPM's, # of passes etc...

    Liquid Souveran???

    Just grabbed half a bottle of this on a whim, but what can I expect? I know it isnt durable but was thinking for a summer wax. Car is dark red pearl and really needs a deep wet look IMHO. Thinking RMG and multiple layers of LS...maybe with a topping of OS for some durability? many thanks

    DWG vs CG EZ Creme Glaze?

    I have some EZ Creme Glaze and have been looking at a lot of amazing posts using DWG :drool: DWG really interests me because of the lack of cleaners, and I want to layer it with other sealants like UPGP - but being in the UK this stuff is tough to get hold off :( Can anyone tell me if there...

    Clearkote VHMG & Pink Moose???

    Used RMG for the first time this afternoon and VERY impressed. Applied on a 3M blue pad by rotary at 900rpm (in full sun) and it gave a gorgeous slightly darkening effect to the very pale primrose Yellow, very slick feel and was soooo easy to use :D The car is a restored '69 model (my avatar)...

    Megs So1o wool pad BP question?

    Will the So1o wool pad fit a standard hook and loop backing plate? I have a 5" 3M BP and a standard non-flexible 6" BP to choose from and dont want to have to spend out again for the Megs BP. Wool pads are hard to find in the UK and my choices are very limited.... many thanks

    NXT 2.0 over glazes?

    I just got some NXT 2.0 liquid and was wondering if it will work OK over a glaze like no 7 Show Car Glaze or perhaps RMG? Also wondering if there is any value in layering this? I'd like to get the wettest look I can..... I heard it has cleaners in it, but also remember reading somewhere that...

    DG stuff in Palm Springs area?

    I'll be in Rancho Mirage, CA all next week, and was hoping somebody could suggest some retailers in the area that would sell the Duragloss range or Megs Bodyshop range OTC? Otherwise, some ideas of any retail chains I should look out for that stock the DG range would be great, as I see...

    AW and waxes

    just thinking about getting some AW for topping waxes's, especially in winter etc, but if I use it can I then top up the wax again with another layer, over whatever might be left of the AW? Also, can I top ANY waxes and sealants with AW or are there any bonding issues? many thanks

    Whats the feedback on NXT v2?

    Seen loads about people buying it but very few posts about its use? I know its winter for a lot of people but what is the feedback so far? Sounds easy to use with good looks initially but what about after a few washes? What does the new hydrophobic (sp?) action add to it - anything like...

    Opti Seal by PC?

    I think I have seen some references to applying Opti Seal by PC on some Clig & Brags, and was wondering how you guys did this? Just got a bottle but have never used it before, so am looking for a best process. Have used UPGP with no issues on a MF pad, but what about this stuff? It appears...
