    Are there any OPT reps in here?

    It seems on the OPT FB page it was suggested that Opti Seal s/could be used as a drying agent and one detailer was recommending mixing 50/50 with ONR. I suggested this wasn't recommended by OPT as dilution and/or mixing with a lubricant like ONR reduces the products ability to properly adhere to...

    Megs Ultimate Paste

    I just used some Megs Ultimate Paste and it seemed to me the carrier remained very sticky even though I believe I waited a sufficient amount of time (especially for as warm as it was (upper 70's) and it was early evening and the surface was cool. I didn't like it ... whine...whine. (I'm...

    ONR is really slick...

    ...pun intended! I first came to this forum in 2007 where I learned about Optimum No Rinse Wash 'n Shine. So I gave it a try and became a quick fan. We don't have water restrictions here, but the winters are real. A coin-op spray pressure wash gets mud and cinders off, but not the road grime...

    Dreaming of spring....

    Re: Dreaming of spring.... Greenworks 2000 psi pressure washer Well outta the box there was a pin hole leak in the detergent tank. The instructions say to NOT TAKE BACK TO THE STORE - Call Greenworks. So I called Greenworks and explained the problem of a pin hole leak where the nipple exits the...

    Gotta STOP detailing ...

    Yesterday was a spring teaser with temps reaching close to 60! So after running some errands, I took the truck to the coin-op for a power wash/rinse, then came home and did an ONR wash and spray wax (megs ultimate) along with some back to black and some headlight protectant. But everytime I've...

    Dreaming of spring....

    As cold and snowy as it's been here in Central New York it almost seems foolish to be thinking spring and detailing. Never the less, having recently bought the new (to me) truck (2013 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT), I just can't help it. I'm slowing 'gearing up' by buying a few products each week so...

    Duragloss No Rinse question

    I've used ONR in the distant past but am thinking of using Duragloss No Rinse (partly because I've used and like Duragloss AquaWax). What is the consensus about Duragloss No Rinse wash? Like ONR, can it also be used as a clay lube? Advance thanks, -Mike

    Rustoleum NeverWet

    I did a search, but everything seems very old. What was/is the verdict on NeverWet for automotive use? Not sure I could see it used all over, but wondering about wheels and lower body/fender areas that see a greater amount of road crud.

    Basic advice

    So I just got a new (to me) truck (2013 Silverado 1500 LT). The paint is in really good shape (the truck looks like new). Although I have a Porter Cable 7424, I'm not sure I really 'need' to polish, just get and keep a good layer of protection at least when spring comes. In the past (circa 2007)...

    Old 'kid' - New 'kid'

    Hey All, I first came to the Autopia forums sometime around 2007 after I bought a new (to me) ride (2006 Buick Rendezvous). I got bit by the new car bug and so I dug into detailing. I got a Porter Cable polisher, polish and pads and all sorts of detailing stuff... clay, 303 Areospace...
