Has anyone ever tried plastic polish (or other) on plastic eyeglass lenses with anti-scratch coating?

Has anyone tried the new Polycharged version? If so, what kind of durability have you gotten? How does it compare to other waxes/sealants you like and use regularly, for look, durability and ease of use? Thanks for any opinions. Todd

Could anyone recommend a good place to buy Propel pads for the Cyclo? Thanks.

Can anyone recommend a non-dedicated product that works well on windows? I use two different Japanese glass "polishes" which are both a kind of gritty, water-based thin paste. They are excellent at taking anything off the glass (water spots, pitch,etc.), but don't provide any "gloss" to the...

Hi folks, I finally had a chance to use Z-2 PRO for the first time today (sorry, no pics). I applied it in conjunction with ZFX, after polishing my '92 Champagne Gold Metallic Silvia "K's" with Optimum Polish by Cyclo with Cyclo white pads. Some thoughts: 1) Don't care for the smell...

I should be getting my first ever order of Zaino stuff (Z2Pro and ZFX) within a few days. I didn't buy the Zaino QDs, though. I have (and love) ClearKote Quik Shine, and wonder what kind of results people get with it over Z2Pro? Thanks for any comments. Todd

Well, I finally got to see Zymol in action today. One of my friends has a BMW "boutique" and also sells used Alpinas. He also has a jar of Zymol Concours, which he thinks is the best carnauba in the world. He just had an '86 (I forgot the model :o ) coupe completely repainted in Alpina met...

Hi Folks, I've just bought RMG and VM for the first time (from PAKSHAK-great service as always!), which I plan to use under UPP as the LSP on my gold metallic Silvia. Has anyone had any issues with water-based UPP bonding with those two poducts? Thank you. Todd

Hi folks, I'm thinking of ordering some of the Sonus polishes to try. Could anyone please give their opinions about the performance of the SFX-1, 2 & 3, and how they compare to similar types of products? Also, just out of curiosity, does anyone know where Sonus products are made? I had...

I've decided to buy a Cyclo; I'd like to know what type of pads other users prefer: the bonnet-type pads, or the velcro-backed pads (which would require the rubber pad holder). Do the bonnets really last much longer; are they difficult to remove when you want to change pads? Right now I...

I'm heading home to the States in a few days, and plan to order some Zaino for the first time. Besides the Z-2 PRO, I'm trying to decide if the extra cost of the ZFX is worth it (I'm not concerned about the extra effort required to apply the Z-1). Even more than that, I'm worried that the...

I just got my first order from Pak Shak in timely order - Ranney was very professional and helpful. I got the "Autopia Special" discount, and he very kindly sent me a complimentary "Ultra-Plush" buffing towel, as well as a 4 oz. sample of UPP sealant. ( I didn't even realize they were part of...

I usually import LC PC pads. I plan to visit the U.S. in the near future. Can you purchase Meg's pads (or others) at AutoZone(?), etc. ? Thanks.

I didn't want to hijack the previous post concerning carnaubas, but I'd like to ask Natty's Blue users about how it compares to "regular" Natty's. A lot of folks offered Nattys Blue ( but did not specify if that choice was only for black/ dark paint.) Do any of you actually find it...

Although I'm mostly just a reader, I had about 360 posts (I think) up til yesterday. Today, they suddenly dropped down to less than 300. I wonder what happened to the rest:nixweiss ? Anyone else have the same thing happen? :bawling:

I used a LC yellow pad for only the second time yesterday. Just before I finished, the white backing material completely separated from the pad itself. Anyone else have this happen? Can anyone recommend a more rugged cutting pad ? I didn't abuse the thing, so I was surprised that it...

Could any U.K members tell me if "Holts" (or "Holt") products are made by a well-known British company? Here in Japan, all the chain shops carry "Holts" products (with a prominent Union Jack printed at the top), and in fact dominate the shelves for misc. detailing products, from compound to...

Has anyone used P21S Multi-Surface Finish Restorer to polish plastic headlight and brake light covers? Any comments or other recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks.

Could anyone share their experience concerning which (non-cleaner)carnuba fills (very minor) blemishes? My car is 12 years old, the paint (light metallic) is in fantastic condition (thanks to 1z PP, Glanz Wax, topped with "SURLUSTER MANHATTAN GOLD carnuba -perhaps not sold in the U.S., but is...

Scott, Have you tried topping Glanz Wax with #16? After all the great things I've recently heard from you and others about #16, I plan to pick some up when I vist the U.S. this spring. Also looking forward to your future post about how long it keeps beading! Thanks! P.
