I'd like to revisit a few of my techniques here, so that some of you may offer some alternatives/ideas/etc. My car is too low to hit my wells with a good brush. I've been spraying them down with armor all tire dressing with semi decent results. On my wheels I've been using the meguiars...

I very happily switched to Eurow Sheepskins this summer, with high expectations that were met. One of my mitts started shedding today, which was a real PITA. Hairs everywhere! Is this the end of the Sheepskin era for me? I'm contemplating trying something else now. Do other companies make...

I've been using it to clean the interior of my vehicles. What other uses are there for this stuff? (I have a lot of it)

Original thread http://autopia.org/forum/click-brag/80488-steel-grey-wrx.html Since the detail, the car has been through atleast two weeks of snow...including one snow storm that brought almost 18 inches. It's my daily driver, sits outside while parked at work, and it's home is under...

So a fellow Autogeek member sent me sample of Z2pro to try out. I was reading the Zaino website and it seems to say that Zaino works at 45 degrees and above. Has anyone used it in colder conditions? Im excited to try it to see if the buzz is worthy, but it looks like we're in the 30s for the...

On Dec 22nd I placed an order with Autogeek, utlizing the %20 discount, and paying with my gift certificates that I purchased at %25 off.....a %45 discount :) Tracking indicated that the package would arrive on Jan 04. On Jan 04, I checked the tracking status of my package and it indicated...

or those of you still having doubts.... 10 days ago, we received 15 inches of snow. In the Northwest, we don't play with salt. We give the snow a few days and then throw a bunch of dirt and gravel on it. Exhibit A: My car playing in the snow Exhibit B: More fun I've had the...

Just curious if anyone has mixed AW with OCW? Maybe a %75 AW + %25 OCW mix to offset costs? Will the carnuba of the OCW affect the sealant?

I have a Rigid WD4050 5hp vac.... Im considering adding a Little Green Machine to my Christmas wishlist. I've seen that people do indeed extract with the WD4050, will getting an LGMC be redundant?

What do I need to know about the paint of this car? I went home over the holidays and my mom's black Beemer is in horrible condition. Big swirls and lots of water spotting. Orange LC pad and OC going to be enough?

This is my second full exterior detail. A little history on me. I'd say in January I started researching propper washing techniques. By the summer I had registered on this site and that's when the wallet got a lot lighter. This is the second vehicle I've used the PC on. Still learning the...

Where are you more experienced detailers saving time in your process? It took 2.5-3 hours to ONR, Clay (hood, trunk, roof), door jams, trunk,under the hood, and Poli-Seal everything but the doors and front bumper. Am I on target?

How are you guys doing this? Spraying it on and whipping with a MF?

Hey guys, New to the board, but jumped into the OCD style of detailing this summer. I'm a big fan of foam gun washes and ONR washes. I really enjoy my Optimum Polish line and have picked up some Poli-seal to try. I'll post a picture of my collection as soon as my 303 arrives :) Anyhow, I...

Does OCW offer a true comparison to paste carnubas? I have a bottle and a half of aquawax and told myself that I was going to try OCW (and AJT) once I'm out of AW. For the time being I was going to purchase some Natty's Blue to top my Poli-Seal and then top that with AW. If OCW can offer...

At what point in your detailing process are you guys attacking your trim? My issue is that I like to attack the trim after polishing and waxing. I've been cleaning the trim during the original wash with ONR but after waxing the paint I have been using AIO on the trim to remove excess wax etc...

Hello, I'm looking to try the 50/50 mix of OCW/CJ before purchasing both products in a larger quantity. Also interested in AJT. Thanks, Kevin

Hello, I am on the verge of making a MF purchase from Pakshak to better my ONR washes. I emailed Pakshak asking which MF they suggested for ONR and they replied that Sheepskin is preferred. The board seems divided on which application method works best. I have a Eurow Sheepskin mitt...

What sort of tools and process are you fine folks using? I'm talking about gaps between body panels, rubber molding and the areas in between, door handles etc.

So, I decided to detail my gf's 97 Legacy, which she purchased from her mom this summer. The thing was swirl city, has probably never been detailed and has been washed by.....not guys.... :LOLOL ..or to be pc, not detail people. The steps ONR Clay rinse Started by using Optimum Compound...
