    Optimum No Rinse & Shine - How long does it take?

    How long does it take you to wash a not too dirty car with ONR (including wheels and tires)? I use the 2-bucket method with ONR, a couple of sheepskin mitts and 2 or 3 WW MF towels...and it's taking me about an hour. How about you all?

    Are you as OC about your house as your car?

    Just curious. How many of us are as clean-crazy about their houses as we are about our cars? I know, I'm not.

    Q-Tips with Round and Pointed Tips at Walgreens

    Hey, I was wondering around the cosmetics dept. of Walgreens to maybe find a brush for detailing (that's how bad my OCD is!) and I saw boxes of these Q-Tips for less than $3. Not a bad deal. I remember somebody posting something similar from a website for around $5. Sorry no pics. An...

    ONR as a QD or Clay Lubricant?

    I just ordered some ONR and supposedly you can use it as a QD and Clay Lubricant. Does anyone here actually use it for those purposes?

    Colored Wax for White Cars?

    As I was washing my white van the other day, I started wondering, has anyone ever made products that have a color to them so that you can see it on light colored cars when you're buffing it off? Just curious.

    Thought about water beading versus sheeting

    this morning it rained and as I was walking into work, I was looking at the cars (as people with OCD tend to do.) The cars with some protection had beads of water and then the really neglected ones looked dry because there was no beading. That got me thinking, I know we see our beautifully...

    Is Optimum Compound/Polish then Prime: Strong Redundant?

    I just bought and used JW Prime: Strong on my Black Honda Accord via PC and it didn't make any difference in the spider web scratches I have in my paint. It was probably due to a combination of pad selection (Edge 2K blue polishing pad) and PC technique (not enough pressure). When I try...

    Does Prime: Strong Remove Light Swirl and Scratches?

    OK, Prime: Strong has been out on the market for a while now and people have had a chance to use it...so what's the Verdict? My Nighthawk Black Pearl Honda is showing a few light marring/scratches. I was hoping to use P:S to reduce the marks and clean the paint. I know I'm not going to get...

    Do you wear Ear Protection when using the PC 7424?

    I'm going to be buying a PC in about a week or so and I'm wondering how loud it is. Do you all wear ear plugs when using yours? I saw a couple of videos of the PC in use last night and it sounds pretty loud to me. I said" "IT SOUNDS PRETTY LOUD TO ME!!!" ;) :buffing:

    Has anyone tried Wet Paint Glaze?

    I found this product over on the Drive Accord forums and it's very nice. I did a search here and couldn't find any posts on it. It's a one step glaze product that cleans and shines. You can use it on glass and plastic. The website sounds like it could solve the gas crisis too! :LOLOL...

    Waxmaster WB9000...Any good?

    I know the Porter Cable 7424 is the ultimate DA polisher, but I bought this Random Orbital polisher a while ago. Is this any good? No one here ever talks about them. What's the deal?
