Beauty Shine Carnauba "Blue" 418 (let`s call it BS 418). With a tub like this, no wax collector can resist. According to the labels, it`s a newer version of the same wax that has been popular for decades. They also make the (perhaps more famous) pink wax whose claim to fame was the start...

According to Autoglym, there`s not much we can do but get the poop off ASAP. The real reason why bird droppings damage your car - Telegraph

I`m looking for something different to try. What`s your favorite beauty wax for $50-ish or less? $50, because, that`s the point at which I think things start to drop off as far as bang for buck. $50 with sales or coupons is OK.

With the recent interest in Dr. Beasley`s, I thought I`d share with you a product from the good doctor that I really like: Dr. Beasley`s "The Final Finish" quick detail spray. This morning when I looked on AG, they had the Matte version of this spray. This review is for the normal version...

I certainly wasn`t there, but would have liked to! #tbt: Cruising Van Nuys Boulevard in 1972

Brazil is the only exporting country harvesting carnauba. However, did you know the palms that produce carnauba can also grow in Florida? Zymol is doing it! I heard that Zymol also makes wax from banana trees, and this article seems to substantiate that somewhat. Any more info? This make me want...

Anyone heard of this brand or used it? They have a liquid wax and a few sprays and lotions. Someone did a review of their soap on here last year. Looks to be another Adams or CG. I don`t want to seem dismissive - it could be the best stuff on earth, I don`t know. But, the QD looks like Speed...

The good people here on Autopia helped me choose some waxes for a test. My beater car was in bad need of a polish, so I did, and thus had a nice slab to run some tests. HERE`s THE WAXES WE CHOSE: OK, to be fair, the forum members picked three waxes, and I added the forth - the Pro DoDo...

I`m going to polish the roof of my daily beater today, and figured it`d be a good time for a longevity test. Help me pick THREE of the following to test... Adams Buttery Wax Chemical Guys Blacklight Collinite 915 Collinite 845 DoDo Juice Blue Velvet Pro DoDo Juice Purple Haze DoDo Juice...

OK.. before you get excited (Ron), this is a home-brew project. I know from experience that this isn`t a big home-brew crowd, but I`d like to share my latest creation with those interested. So when I`ve made car waxes in the past, the solvent has always given me fits. I get worked op thinking...

Hi all. A few months ago, I found this plant sprayer at Home Depot for $9. I like to pre-spray cars with ONR (or similar) as a pre-soak, and this sprayer makes it easy. I`m very happy with it, especially considering the price. It has a adjustable BRASS nozzle! A nice touch for the money...

Razor blades, Isopropyl alcohol, razor blade holders... I must admit they "got" me once or twice... IronX maybe, or a towel, but it`s so mundane that I`m losing interest.

DMT`s get all the attention in PB microfiber, but I`ll tell you, my Mega Plush towels are holding up great after 3 years and I think they`re better than DMT`s at LSP removal. They`re built differently than any other towel in my collection. The loops are rather large. They also come clean with...

What is our recourse regarding the subject line? I sent an email to Autopia but it hasn`t been answered.

So after having this Z for some time now, I finally did a full-on detail as opposed to doing science experiments. Waterless Wash with UWW+ Slayed some water spots with CarPro Spotless and Megs 205 by hand, in some cases making a slurry with the Spotless and 205. Griots clay using 3D Final...

How can you be thankful for something and not like it? Or like something and not be thankful? What`s the purpose in having the two buttons? Which one gives the OP more atta-boys?

Did anyone see this movie back in the day? I was taken to the theater by a friend`s mom and we had a hoot. I guess I was 7 or 8. Anyway the movie features a white Dodge Challenger. I was infatuated with that look of car the rest of my life. By the time I was old enough to buy cars, my taste had...

Post your Sleeper products, and why you like it. I consider a Sleeper something that is currently off the chat list. Maybe something older, or perhaps just in the shadow of a newer rival. Here`s two: FK 303 Foam Pad Glaze. A great light polish with light filling. I think its name doesn`t do...
