Last month I'm at a friends shop who builds custom choppers and I saw him wax a recently finished bike with Kosmic Shine. He gave me a bottle and I used it about 2 weeks ago at a show in Orlando. Interesting stuff..smells of mineral spirits and wipe on / wipe off. Wondering if anyone here...

Has anyone tried DF Concours Towels? M/F that's 100% all cotton? I tried to do a search, but because "DF" is under 3 characters it will not process.

Anybody try mink oil on leather? I've used just about everything out there on leather. On the lambo I just bought the previous owner is a collector and had the car for 3 years and only used mink oil paste. It looks brand new and has a subtle feel and look. A few days ago I went to a...

Doing car show on Sunday. Sold the Ferrari (after several trophys) and bought a red Lambo. Paint cleaned and used Meg Speed Glaze. Just got Poorboys EX with Carnuba. Using Scottwax's product list. Questions: 1) Hand or Machine (R/O)? If RO white polishing pad or black fine pad? 2)...

A while back I posted a comment about my dislike of NXT. In fairness I want to say I did 2 back to back shows. Sebring and Festival of Exotic Cars Mt Dora. The latter is ICA certified judging. Got a 1st and 2nd place. Upon arriving to the events (a 4 hr drive) I want to hit the car with...

Need some help on how to remove NXT. Can it be removed like Zaino with water and alcohol? Or will a paint cleaner + PC do it? Paint is in excellent condition and would hate to DACP it. Have car show this weekend and under the gun to get it done quickly. Appreciate anyone who has done it...

I’m in the process of using the Twins for the first time. After one coat of SG I posted that I was disappointed with the product. I need to rescind that comment. The second coat of SG made all the difference in the world and thanks to the members here for the useful comments. I let...

Last Saturday...another show

OK First, we all know that there is no such thing as a perfect wax - and this is NOT to start any flames or product wars. This is an honest report from the car show and I found the results very interesting. I spoke to the owners of every trophy winner. Second, there were no wax companies...

Used the ClearKote product line for the first time - First, let me say I did not give this product as much time as I would like to have. I was getting ready for a Car Show. UPS lost my order for over 10 days, so I had Everett at ClearKote overnight the same order to me. Got the stuff...

Well.... tried the new Menzerna from CMA today. Car is in great condition & just clayed last month. Started with a base of Meg DACP, then Menzerna. Menzerna Intensive Polish - Used with the new "Orange" CMA pad. White cream goes on easy & breaks up really fast. Almost dry after 2-3...

Just did my car with Zaino....Thanks but No Thanks. Now I want to take it off. I'm 90% sure Dawn won't do it, so now what...? Will GEPC or Zymol HD Cleanse do it or do I need somthing more agressive? :nixweiss

I have always been a carnauba guy…but after a long study, including this site, Guru Reports, etc etc, finally decided to make the switch to a poly system. But which one? I did a test of four products on the front bumper of my red Ferrari. From left to right I tested: Racers Edge...

I'm in the dark about a couple of products and was wondering if anyone out there can put the following products in order based on how agressive they are....starting with the most agressive to the least agressive: 3M Perfect-it Swirl Mark Remover Meguiars - Dual Action Polishing Meguiars...

Ever wonder about the way guys prep their cars for national events like Pebble Beach ? I belong to a few Ferrari sites and came across this a while ago. The author is very well respected in the F -car community. Takes about 5 minutes to read…thought it would be worth sharing…...

Kind of a follow up thread on P21S. Here is the turbo I just sold. 12 years old...original paint. No prep other than GEPC with a PC, followed by hand wax. The pix was taken about 2 weeks after waxing. I don't know if you can see the reflection of the fence...awsome stuff! As I said...

Just wanted to say thanks to all contributing members on this site….been very helpful to me. I have owned about 20 high end cars and detailing has been an obsession with me. My last car was a black 911 Turbo. Raised on Zymol until about 2 years ago when I discovered P21-S. Bought a...
