Hello all. My friend got into a little accident the other day and has a dent on his passenger rear quater panel (see pic). Anyways, he wants to pull out the dent as much as he can and do as much work to it as He can before going to the body shop for them to finish it up and make it look perfect...

Not the best pics, but I JUST got done with my detail...I still need to do the trim around the windows AND polish the windows but for the most part I'm done. Took me WAY too long (at least 24 hours...over the course of quite a few days). I think I may throw another layer of SG on after a few...

Sorry, that's the best way I can describe it. And this may be a stupid question...haha My hood had lots of swirls. I used IP and a CMA yellow pad with pretty good success. But now, the hood seems to have a bunch of tiny "dings" in the clearcoat. Like tiny, tiny, tiny rock chips is the...

So I have 1/3rd of my car left to polish. I started getting really good results with Menzerna's IP. But...I'm about out of polish (used too much of it when I didn't really didn't have a good technique going). I have some Meg's SFP in my garage, and I CAN go buy some DACP, but would rather not...

I just got the Menzerna IP (FP as well) in the mail last night. This morning, I started in on my 2001 VW Jetta, "Cool White". Lot's of swirls, they don't look terribly deep, there are just a lot of them. First I did an area with the IP and a CMA White Pad. No go. Next I did the same area...

Since you need to have a "lube" while using clay, is it fine to NOT dry the car after washing and prior to claying?!?! Wash, Rinse very well, and then start claying using a QD when needed. Yes? No? I understand about the water spot thing but I'll be washing and drying the car after...

Question- So to remove swirls in small areas what's the best method? I've read that when using a PC to polish it needs to be kept flat so polish won't go every where. However, I am assuming that when I polish my spoiler, doors near the windows, and near the sunroof the Porter-Cable won't be...

Meg's Yellow Polishing Pad 3M Glazing Pad (05729) DACP SFP S100 SEPC S100 Wax White 2001 Jetta...swirls all over the place. I was thinking about this: Wash Clay Yellow Pad + SFP if that doesn't work then Yellow Pad + DACP S100 with 3M Glazing Pad or try to find a Meg's Finishing...

Sorry if this isn't the right forum. I am looking for a website that sells Meguiar Pads (for my Porter-Cable) and polishes that ship through the Postal Service. UPS & FedEx charge way too much shipping to Alaska. Or if there is a local store that anyone knows about. I know Shucks (Kragen...

I've been doing quite a bit of reading. This is what I came up with. 2001 VW Jetta, "Cool White", lots of swirls covering entire car. Car used to be washed with one of those car-wash bay brushes (yuck)! I'll try to take a pic today if possible and post the severity. I should be able to get...

I TRIED to use some Meguair's Interior cleaner and stain remover yesterday while detailing the interior. The stuff seems to work OK, but here's a problem.....I can't seem to get the crap completley removed because it actually "stains" the seats after it dries. Like the residue is still there...

With winter fast aproaching I want to get a good interior and exterior detail. This will give me enough time to research the fine art of detailing so I can do it next summer. Anyway, what questions should I ask a detail shop? I have a few already- Do you clay the vehicle? Do you use a...

Just curious if anyone has used this Wheel polish before? And if they liked it?

Well took my car to the VW dealer to have my wheels rebalanced (BTW it is a 01 VW Jetta WE). Have been having the 60 MPH shake, and the Dealer JUST got in a Hunter 9000 (only one in AK). So get the car back on there is a scratch that starts VERY thin and get deeper and a LITTLE bit wider (maybe...

Kind of like the topic says. I have a 01 White VW Jetta with some pretty minor swirls. Just curious if I should use the Yellow Megs pad or the red "cutting" pad on the PC with Megs Swirl Free Polish.

Hey yall, I plan on doing a full detail to my 01 VW Jetta with Tan "velour" seats, here this week. I have everthing I want for the outside of the the car (PC 7336, Megs Swirl Free Polish, S100 SEPC, S100 Wax). Now I need to focus on the intereor. Now it is in pretty good shape, I have rubber...

I am sorry for posting this, but I tried the search and between the Acronyms, and just not knowing what to search for I came short. Ok I have a 2001 VW Jetta white in Colour. The Car is parked outside in the winters (dont have a garage, but will soon) but on a + side the car is hardley Ever...

Hey yall, I am thinking of picking up a Porter Cable 7336SP from lowes (they have One in stock), and sence I live in Alaska I really want to try to not order pads online (Shipping is KILLER). Anyways, I went to one of our Local Auto Paint Supply Shop, and they had a 3M 6" velcro backing pad that...

I know alot of these products are similar, just curious if the Wheel Cleaners are the same aswell.

Long story short, my 01 VW Jetta in Cool White got a small scratch from the dealership yesterday (brought it for a coilpack, you VW guys with the 1.8T know what I am talking about:), anyways it is on the front bumper, about a 1 and 1/2" to 2", and it is not deep at all, you can barley feel it...
