    Fixing "Deep" Scratches ??

    It's a mediocre picture, but the scratch goes down to the primer. Which is the best method of fixing this? a) The "Dupli-Color Premium Touch-Up Repair Kit (I have this in front of me): b) Mothers Scratch Kit. or; c) Langka's Scratch Kit? One bit of information will help me...

    NXT by Machine

    I can understand now why Mike Phillips applies and removes NXT by machine - PC. I redid the hood and the convex surfaces of my black Santa Fe with #09, #81 and NXT with a PC. There IS a difference - subtle perhaps, but a visible increase in the shine and depth of the surface. The exercise...

    I Have Become a Believer!

    I had 2x NXT Tech Wax on my 03 black Hyundai Santa Fe and was truly pleased with the results! The prep was High Temp Light Cut then the NXT. It has been two weeks now and one Shell "velvet" car wash. A couple of applications of FD made the finish look like new. Today, I bought the NXT...

    Just Did the Wife's Silver Spruce Avalon

    I haven't touched the car (except for Shell Station washes) since last October. The car didn't look bad at all. But, the OCD part of me wanted to "do" the car. First I worked High Temp Light into the worst of the minor swirls. I then tried PB Pro Polish but found that it was the dickens to...

    NXT on a Black Santa Fe

    I have used 4* UPP and Poorboy's EX on this vehicle. Of the two, I'd give the nod to EX - a rich, dark appearance. That is until I tried NXT. With temperatures in the 40's I had the car washed at the local Shell station. I proceeded to wipe down with PB S&W to make sure the surface was...

    NXT on a Black Santa Fe

    Today was the first where the temperature went above 40 degrees. I had to try out NXT. My orginal plan was to do a complete workup - DACP/#9/#81/NXT - but I was just too anxious to try the new product. A quick wash at the local Shell station and a wipedown with FD - then to NXT on the...

    FLASH Vector Polisher FLASH

    I just got off the phone with a tech representative from Vector. The speeds of the machine start with 1,000 RPM at dial "1." Each numeral on the speed dial represents about 400 RPM. Thus, number 3 on the dial would be about 1,800 RPM! I was ready to buy the 500 RPM at dial number 1 until I...

    Coleman Powermate 7" Polisher

    The temperature is 43 degrees and I had to try out the new polisher. The Coleman Powermate 7" is worth the $50.00 I paid for it. I con, now, understand why the Makita, Porter Cable and the others are worth at least $100.00 more. The Coleman has no guts. Sure, it revs up to 1000RPM+ but if...

    Can You Help?

    I'd appreciate imput on the use of Poorboy's SSR2. Do I have to step down to SSR1, or go directly to Pro Polish? What pads do you use for these products? PC or Rotary? Does anyone use the Coleman Powermate 7" polisher?
