    S&G for new paint?

    Steve, Is S&G safe for new paint? I just had my hood and fender resprayed by a body shop. I was wondering if S&G was safe to use until I can seal and protect which is about 45 days out. I know I can use 3M Hand glaze, but I want to use S&G after washing just to keep this slicker if...

    PwC/Ex/Nattys

    What's the best combo you guys have using the three above products together? I am going to redo the Mach soon. I've been using EX alone. I was thinking PwC, EX 2x, Natty's 2x. Some have recommended to just PwC and go straight to Nattys since it is a garage/car cover queen. What has been...

    Maxx gets DeWinterized with new Z5- Opinions/Suggestions?

    Spring finally arrived here on LI, so it was time to try the goodies Santa brought me (Zaino kit, Sonus Pads, PC). The Maxx was pretty beaten up form the winter.

    New EX - Awesome

    I bought the new formula EX from Steve. Did the trunk of the Mach, but of course, the batteries were dead in the camera. By the time they were charged, the same storm that blew Dorothy out of Kansas hit LI so I had to throw the cover back on. All I can say is: WOW!!!!! :bow Thinner...

    Scratches on Radio

    Any tips on how to remove scratches from a radio face? I have a JVC Sirius radio that has some scratches in the face? It's clear plastic like a typical radio display. Sorry, I tried to get a pick, but all I could get was reflection from the flash. Thanks for your ideas!

    Detailers on LI: Spring Meet?

    Ok, so I have a bad case of cabin fever. We spend a lot of time talking here, but it would be great to meet and match the faces to the screen names. Would anybody be up for a spring meet? I was thinking maybe at a beach parking lot or at Bald Hill for "Detail City Shine Fest - Long Island...

    NLD or VRT for Tan Interior

    I have a tan interior in my Malibu Maxx. I need to ask Santa to bring me either Poorboys NLD or Adams VRT. I love the way VRT looks on black, but then again I've never seen NLD up close. I was thinking the NLD might be better since it offers some cleaning ability. I prefer a low gloss, matte...

    PC 7336 Question

    I am going to pick up a PC 7336 while Lowes has them on sale. I know that the diff between this and the 7424 is the size of the plate and counterweight. I already ordered the Sonus Pad kit from Autopia, as I heard the Sonus pads are great. It comes with a 5" flex plate and I think the pads...
