Can someone recommend some 1Z products to be used by hand to remove swirls in tight spots - for instance under the door handles. I need one for single stage paint and another for clear coat. I heard that this product line is good by hand. Thanks.

I live in an apartment and park in a carport. Well the lady who parks on one side does not take care of her car and always hits my car with her door. I noticed plastic marks on my door the other day and further investigation showed color transfer onto her door. Now our parking spots are...

Moved into a new apartment and wouldn't you know it there are a few cats around. Well as you guessed it they jumped on the hood of the car and since it was so slick (thank you FMJ, OPT, and AW) they were slipping and scrached the he#$ out of it. Any way to keep the cats off-spreading pepper or...

I get some very slight 'straight line marring' over time which can only be seen in the sun at the right angles. I think this happens over time just with basic washing and drying. It is very hard to see unless you look really hard into the paint. I usually finish down with Menzerna SRC...

Since we are removing paint with abrasives I was thinking that breathing in all of this can't be good for our lungs.

Any tips on cleaning a really dirty white leather interior (sorry no pics). I have heard of the dilluted woolite solution working well but I am not sure about the proper procedure. What about using a magic eraser or will that be to abrasive? Thanks in advance for the help.

I remember seeing a couple people try some samples with great results (I remember Scottwax taking rust off a white car that sat under a dripping fire sprinkler), but Optimum was still tweaking their formula. Does anyone know if this is available to the public? I would really like to give it a...

be available to the public?

How do you tell if the marring is coming from your washing mitt or drying towel? I am using ONR so it is wipe on with a mitt and then dry off with a WW. I noticed slight marring today and I just polished out everything last weekend with Menzerna 106/RMG on a rotary with a green excel P2 pad...

I have someone who just bought a ne Toyota Tacoma and it has factory decals on the rear bed sides taht say TRD OFFROAD or something like that. He wants them removed. Any suggestions on how to do this?? Thanks

Had a nasty swirled car over the weekend. I first tried Meguiars #83 with an orange Lake Country pad and it did well except it was gumming up and removal was hard. So I switched to IP with some RMG and it removed really easy and both removed 95% of the swirls. The problem is I had to re-wash...

I always tape off the sunroof felt/gasket, but no matter what white residue always shows up after polishing and if I try to remove it I end up with marring around the seal-any tips? Also for those who charge by the hour do you add in additional charges for products and gas if you travel-used...

Can someone recommend a heavy duty vinyl cleaner for seats? The seats are in the sun a lot during the summer.

I have some tight spots on a car which I can only contact by using the side of the foam pads. The problem is that I have only used the rotary when it is flat on a surface. Is it possible to use the side of the pads for accessing these tight spots and if so I would appreciate any...

Do the XMT polishes have fillers? How do they compare to the Menzerna line of products? Thanks.

It probably happens on all the paint, but is more evident on black paint. My process is usually to finish down with FPII and a white LC pad or yellow Meguiars pad and the paint looks pretty good under most conditions, but I can still see little marks what I would describe as pigtails or tracers...

Just wondering if you are detailing a car and use QEW what is your procedure to washing the wheels-usually I need some type of wheel cleaner to get the brake dust off but then need a hose to rinse and this defeats the purpose of QEW.

I have so many pads in my collection and it seems that I am always ordering one more here and there when I place a product order. How many is too many? Just curious how many some of you guys have. On another note I opened a new pkg of clay and was beginning on my first panel and it slipped...
