    Watch out!

    I detailed a Lightning this weekend and used 1Z UP on the factory clear without problems. After the UP I followed up with PP and Menzerna's FP. The "watch out" part is directed to those of you who may have opportunity to polish a Snug Top hard tonneau. The clear on this product is VERY SOFT...

    Polished a Lighning this weekend

    This is me doing a friend's L this weekend. When this pix was taken (between the 1Z and FP) , there was nothing on the paint but SHINE. I used 1Z Metallic, mostly, with the ocasional spot needing 1Z Paint Polish. Mostly done using a PC with a couple of areas needing the 9227. CMS orange...

    First time using 1Z Ultra and polish

    and I'm IMPRESSED. Several months ago I repaired some blemishes on my hood using some color matched aerosol and clear coat. THAT experience taught me to take my vehicle to a body some the next time! I made a scheisshaus of my hood. I started prepping for a show on Friday night and...

    Inline filter for garden hose

    From Lowes, GE Smartwater Model GXWH08C. You will need to buy male and female NPT fittings that connect to garden hose and about a 6 foot hose remnant. When you find them, there will be a whole hose of filter cartridges that will fit it - pick up the ones you want. This will not remove...

    Way, way out in left field

    My wife and I are fixing up her rent-condo for sale. It has 2 "garden" tubs in the main and master bathrooms. They were new in the early 80's and have approximately 25 years of soap scum, caulking and other obsenities built up in the corners. Also the fiberglass is pretty dull overall. I...

    #82

    I think I'm going to get me some of this. Do you work it like #83 - until it is virtually gone and just about all that is left if dust? Or do you work like like #9 and wipe it off a little damp? Thanks

    Tar Removal

    I have some tar (I presume) on the bottom side of my ground effects. Previously I have used TW aerosol (yellow can) with great success, BUT this time it hasn't done a good job. 1/4 ounce of TW and 5 pounds of elbow grease barely touched it. BTW, the TW aerosol, although mostly full, can...

    BMW guidance please

    I may get the opportunity to buff out a heavily swirled & cobwebbed & hologrammed black 540 Bimmer, only a year or so old, over the holidays. It was clayed and buffed about 2 weeks ago after getting wind drift from a building being painted nearby. Now I get to fix the mess. I have proposed...

    I Found A Solution ....

    I FOUND A SOLUTION TO DRIED ON POLISH SPATTER MARKS FYI - The spatters from my Turkey weekend polishing marathon (DACP, M IP, M FP) had to this last Sunday to cure and bond - it got to the point where it was taking about 6-8 swipes with a finger nail to remove each one off the glass, let...

    PUPP over SG?

    This weekend I put PUPP over the (week old) AIO on my wife's beater Buick. What a difference - I think it doubled the gloss of the AIO and so silky smooth. I was impressed and I'm a skeptic. OK, here are my questions. Can I layer PUPP over SG? or just AIO? Will PUPP layer?

    Having done the "full monty" (#83, #9, FP, AIO & SG) on my ride this weekend, I have a few spatter marks of DACP on the textured plasitic mouldings around the rear window, side steps, wiper cowl and back bumper. I have tried a terry towel wetted with 50/50 alcohol & water and rubbed the heck...

    Makita 7227C

    I was scared skinny, when I put this to my truck's hood on Sunday morning. Saturday I didn't have mich success using my PC and DACP to feather in some color & clearcoat I had used to repair some stone blemishes in the paint. The 7227 did in 5 minutes what the PC failed to do in one hour - both...
