    did I apply collinite476 wrong?

    So I put down the collinite with a mf pad on my bmw thought I think I gave it 15 min to set before buffing off and it had 4 days to cure before 4 days of rain... I washed my car with onr this morning to wash off the bird bombs amd stuff but realized my car wasn't beading more than it usually did...

    Just so we're clear--what's YOUR definition of CURE time

    Ok so my take is cure time is the time from after you buff off the product to the time that it has flashed off it's oils/fumes or w.e. you call it... but some people seem to consider it the time from when you apply to the time it's ready to buff off AND the time until it's another coat...

    Operation Car SPA

    Acknowledgements Ok, So I ordered a bunch of stuff, and though I'm still waiting to see if the Autopia store is going to do anything about the points, I think the products I got left a smile on my face.

    When do you use hand polish/cleaner ?

    Currently saving for flex but in the mean time stuck with this uncomfy spot Friends STI hasn't been touched in years and haven't seen it yet so I figure it's prolly bad. My family cars--with the exception of the Protege--they seem to be ok so figure claybar and collinite should suffice...

    Sooo... how does this compare to.....

    I was wondering if there was any insight as to how worthwhile the points were? I mean I read 10 points per dollar and 100 points per order over 100--but I mean does it boil to 10 points = .10USD then? Kind of curious cause in the middle of trying to decide where I want to order my products from

    Favorite car soap?

    I know this sounds stupid but what's your favorite? and do you use different ones for different purposes? I figured Dawn or the new Clorox 'green' dish soaps for when you're starting fresh aside from that I would assume the common answers would be Meg's Gold Class ONR (I think someone...

    your thoughts on Claybars?

    was looking through the reviews--and noticed one guy was ecstatic about Meguiars C2100 Detailing Clay (Agressive). What are your thoughts? I mean I'm currently using mothers--but reading his review--I'm thinking 'wouldn't something that good potentially do more damage than help?"
