this product does not last. it smells really solventy. gets all over the place if u dont use and applicator. streaks if u dont buff off good. but one thing it does do. it gives one really nice look and hides the crap out of stains. recently ive been using PB trim restorer a lot for exterior...

well first off lemme thank poorboy for giving me some information regarding the paint on this car. very helpful... the car is a 1970 'cuda 383. everything is orignal, even the paint unfortunately, which means its a pain in the ass to polish. the paint is single stage. i have never had a car...

hey guys about to get a new car sometime this or next week. really aiming towards the new altima se-r. only thing that worries me is about the dealer prep. im pretty sure im gonna ask them not to touch the paint or anything upon delivery, but what if the car was prepped prior to that and shows...

i did this about 4-5 days ago. looks really good at ngiht, but in the day it looks soo shiney and boring... i since then topped it with #16 and it really really did something. if i owned a white car or silver car i would definately have this as my combo. this is pretty much to show the new guys...

i have a customer who's car i detailed a month ago. i gave the wheels 3 coats of sg (24hours cure) and i wants me to come by and wash and put a coat of wax on top. i passed by today and his car is filthy! the wheels look almost black, and the tires look all gunked up (he has a BMW 645 so it...

today i received my shipment of s&g, s&w, trim restorer, and BnB refills. im a little disappointed. i dont know if it was maybe autogeeks mistake (if it was then theres no problem, i love their discounts :) ) or ups (if it was then there is a problem, they've messed up before). when ig ot the...

well after much hesitation whether or not to top my 3 coats of upp with some souveran i went along and did it. i mean. wwhat harm can it really do. well it didnt do any harm but it sure did give and take some things away. although for being a polymer sealant upp does give both shine and wetness...

just wondering! are there any windshield washer liquids that are safe and wont etch, strip any wax? whenever i use my washer i notce a good amount actualy gets on the car with the wipers. the blue liquid stuff smells solventy. could this do anything bad for the car. ive been suing water for now.

i dont quite remember how i got this idea in my head. i think it was reading a post where some had used souveran and then washed 4 days later with more soap than usual and said he felt he loist protection because of it. can too much soap in the bucket cause the wash soap to be too strong for the...

i ahve two coats of upp and i love the finish. but ifeel that adding an extra coat of it will do nothing except waste product. i was thinking of topping it with liquid souveran and probably top it agin every 2-3 weeks. do u think i could get away with that for 3 months from now and still have...
