Thought it might be interesting to see what people least like about detailing, and to see if anyone had any tips for how they 'overcome' their dislike, or how they approach this area. Personally, I find my wheels are the least favoured part of detailing my car, they are a little intricate...

I have noticed some swirl marks on a recently re-sprayed hood, they are only really visible in direct sunlight, at certain angles. They are circular, (and when the sun shines long enough I will get a pic) and there are hundreds of them! A lot of them are like spider webbing, but some are...

So that I a don't have to wait a week or so ordering from the states is there anywhere a little more local where we can buy Menzerna products? I am talking about the whole range IP FPII FMJ etc etc. ? Local could mean Europe too, anyone know of any sites ? Thanks.

I have a local option to buy most of the 3M product range, I would appreciate your opinions as to which 3M products are a must have. Many thanks.

I used menzerna IP on a car today, and was wiping it off with a MF, and realised that it was quite difficult to remove. I thought about it, and pulled out one of my 100% cotton towels and decided to use that instead. What a revelation, the product was much easier to remove and it literally...

I have great difficulty using AIO with the PC, I find that when I apply it to the vehicle it starts to dust almost immediately. Therefore I end up applying AIO by hand, I am also looking for hints on using SG, and would be interested in your process of applying SG (I have read the thread using...

I would like to know if SG will bond to Vanilla Moose Wax hand glaze or not what are your opinions?

As in the subject, I want to remove Zaino from a car is this possible, and how ? THanks

it dries so fast that you end up with water marks on the car, maybe I should wash only half the car, and dry, then the other half? Anyone have experience and possible solution? It really does leave a nice gloss to the finish, but those water marks !!

hi, sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but here goes. I am from the UK and a friend has a f150, however his central locking on the drivers side is faulty, having taken the door panel off it was discovered that the motor was at fault and not repairable. The question then, would anyone...

Ok well, I looked everywhere on this site and didn't see a review of this product which I bought last week. So I thought I would post a few pics for you to make your own minds up on. I bought this product 1z Kunststoff Intensiv Pflege and I have tried it on the bumper of the wifes car. I have...

The vehicle will arrive tomorrow, and I may make a start then, or certainly over the weekend, weather permitting, however I have only seen pictures of this huge vehicle so far. It is black and apparently has plenty of swirl marks, so I am looking for some advice on the process, and products that...

1z Mettalic polish or Megs #80, would either of these be considered a glaze ?

I do not believe CarLack68 and AIO are the same product, here is why I believe this. Firstly the colour, Carlack68 is white and the consistency of single cream. It has no odour, if I place a large drop on my finger the only thing I can smell is the plastic container that houses the product...

So, if I apply Zaino to my car, does that mean I can no longer polish the car using Menzerna, or Megs, or 1z etc. in later weeks? My understanding is, if I Zaino the car and then polish at a later time, I will effectively strip the Zaino ? If so, then is there nothing I should do to my car...

As I mentioned yesterday, I had another detail to do today, this time for another friend, and this time on a RAV4. This vehicle is 10 years old, ok the process. Wash BMW shampoo, and clay BMW wheel Cleaner and specialist brush on alloys Z16 on tyres (I am totally impressed with this...

Ok todays detail, well actually it started as yesterdays detail, due to the weather I had a couple of stops and starts, by drying the car off and re-applying product, something of a nightmare really. The process then: Wash BMW shampoo Clay #83 DACP - Orange Pad (Sonus) 1z Mettallic Polish...

Any suggestions for repair?

OK this weekend and next week, I am to do 2 details for 2 different cars, the first is a Vauxhall Vectra, mettalic black, lots of commuting miles each day. Not too bad with swirl marks, perhaps a few, very dirty at the moment, hardly ever washed. The second a RAV4 mettalic turqoise in...

As in the title really, although would Menzerna FPII be considered a glaze ? Any others that people would suggest I try? Thanks. I just bought some 1z products too, thought they looked like a bargain, I bought 1Z ultra paint polish, and 1Z mettalic polish and wax, and I bought their clay bar...
