    SSR's via rotory. Need new answers.

    I've always looked at the SSR line-up from PB to be more suited for PC use. Most searches pulled up showing the SSR's to be broken down too quickly when used with a rotory. I don't know what is meant by "too quickly" but when I machine polish via rotory, I only stay on a section for only...

    Service engine soon :(

    So I got my new 2006 BMW X5 4.8is with not even 25 miles on the odometer 2 months ago. I followed the proper break-in period. I only used high quality gas ( which is normal to me, since I always used it on my prior vehicle). And even opted to pay for an oil service out of my own pocket, simply...

    PC on the interior of the car.

    Any one using their PC in the interior? I've been using mf bonnects over polishing pads to clean and condition my leather seats with Poorboy's Leather Stuff. Speads forever and does a better job cleaning. I can tell just from the look of the MF bonnet on a visually clean seat. I've heard of...

    FX100 requires naps between settings.

    Everytime I apply FK1 FX100 to a car, I feel it takes forever for the product to dry. Anyone else experience this? I know I'm apply it thin, since its very spreadable and I use one spray for every panel. How long is it take you guys?

    I got a new car! Now before you question yourself, yes, I did just recently get a hold of the new 2006 bmw 330i in July, but after evaluating what would be more practical, spending 7k on wheels and tires, or getting a new car, obviously the new car became more practical. My new car is a...

    Whats so quick about QW+

    Other than Poorboy's QW+ being easy on or off, as is everyother one of their products, whats the benefit of it? I applied to one panel and immediately tried to remove but the product would just end up smearing. It still needs to haze. On top of that, its betetr to apply to an applicator, so...

    Carnuaba protects better.

    Has anyone noticed that even though sealants last longer, carnuaba waxes seem to protect better against waterspots, bird poop, ect. Everytime birds bomb the car with sealants on, the mark of the poop stays for a couple weeks. Whenever They poop on carnuaba'd paint, they just wash off and don't...
