I know that some of you are going to think I am pretty daft for this. However, I just returned from a long road trip with bugs and road goo splattered all over the car. Since I did not have time to wash before going to work, I just removed the bird bombs, pollen, and cleaned the windows. I...

I have some paint damage near the edge of a door, and I'm planning to go over it with 1Z Ultra, applied via hand (I have a PC, but this is a very tight spot and hard for me to get to with the pad). I'd like to follow that with less abrassive product to correct any remaing maring. I already...

My Acura TSX got swiped by a big chunk of flying wood. I got home and found wood residue on the passenger door, about three inches before and after the openning. So, I first clayed the wood residue off the car. Underneath it, I found a very ugly set of fine scratches. It looked like...

I've been having a modest problem with UPP that, I assume, is due to something wrong with my technique. I've got a Acura TSX, which I preped with AIO and a few coats of SG. Every few weeks, I add another coat of UPP. I spread the UPP pretty thin, via hand, and then wait about a half an hour...

I'm not going to post an extensive review, because I know there have already been multiple threads about this product. But, I just have to say (after my first use) that I'm impressed. I could not believe how easy it was to use - like any spray-on gloss enhancer. However, it left my car (which...

I got some of this stuff with the Autogeek sample deal a few weeks ago. Thought I'd share some impressions. The caveat is that I am not a waterless wash user, in general. I have QEW in the garage, but prefer to just wash my car with water (in California, weather is always nice enough to...

Somebody mentioned this in response to the thread on the new wash buckets at Target, so I bought a couple: http://www.containerstore.com/browse/Product.jhtml?CATID=74180&PRODID=71858 For only $15, I'm pleased to say that this item is a great alternative for a wash bucket. It holds plenty...

In my short time as a detailing enthusiast, I've seen an explosion of options in a few key product areas. For example, when I first started, there were far fewer options available for sealants and detailing sprays. There has also been a lot of growth in the diversity of microfiber type of...

At Costco, big bottle of Blue Magic leather cleaner, and a bottle of conditioner for $9.95. Anybody know anything about this stuff?

So, now that this stuff has been out for a while, what are everybody's impressions? I like the sprayer, but did not find the product to clean particularly well (certainly not as well as Final Inspection) or to do much to enhance shine or slickness. In short, I was not impressed. Are...

Coupon code: WG405 wolfgangcarcare.com My favorite in their product line is the tire gel. I'll probably buy a 64oz bottle.

For several weeks, I've been confused about the proper use of AIO. In one of his posts, DavidB commented that AIO has more protection than most users realize. Unless I misunderstood what he was saying, he went on to suggest that most users do not benifit from the protective capabilities of AIO...

I got a lot of great stuff in the various Autogeek and Premiumautocare giveaways during Dec. I have to say, however, that Wolfgang Black Diamond Tire Gel is my favorite of all the product. I just love the durability, the matte look, and the lack of sling. Great product. :up I don't...

They have a few good deals on "Detailer's Pride" products over at Autogeek, including the spray wax with Carnuba (which I'd use as a quick detailer) and the tire gloss. I have always suspected that these products were similar to the corresponding products in the Wolfgang and Pinnacle lines, but...

Anything you really wanted to try, and then found that it did not live up to your hype or anticipation? I will probably not make myself popular now, but here are some products in that category for me: Sonus Ultimate Drying Towel - That mf towel just doesn't feel very well made to me...

I like to use some kind of gloss enhancer after every wash to refresh the shine and slickness of my car. Lately, I've had UPP as the LSP, but sometimes I have SG (and sometimes S100). So, for detailing spray, I've tend to stick with products that have no carnuba. My thinking has been that I...

So, what detailing products would you guys say are the greatest bargins out there? I'm not talking here about particularly vendors. What products (of any type), if sold at their standard retail price represent the best bargins. For me, I'd pick #16, S100, and NXT Soap. Some of my other...

I was just over at Premiumautocare and was taken aback by the current price for 4* UPP. I have two bottles of that wonderful product at home. I think I paid less than $14 for the first bottle (autopia discount at pakshak) and I got the second bottle for free (4* giveaway). However, at $19.95...

I have a bottle of Wolfgang Sealant sitting around from one of those Autogeek deals. I already have AIO,SG, and UPP on my car. But, I though I'd like to experiment with Wolfgang anyway. The one thing that struck me, in reading the application instructions at autogeek.net was the warning...

Haven't read much about it here (although the product Last Touch replaced was frequently mentioned). It sure is economical, if you buy it by the gallon though.
