Hey Guys,          Been a while since I have been here,  but I've got a problem.  My new house has a tree that hangs over the drive way and is infested with Aphids.  This means my car is covered in tree sap and the aphids sticky excrement.   I last washed my car two weeks ago and when I...

Hey guys, don't want to pry into your personal lives too much, but how is business right now? I know for me it is horrible (home builder) so I wanted to see how it is for you all considering most people consider washing and detailing a luxury item that they can go without. How bad of an idea...

Well, like the title says, how do yall remove oxidation on non-skid deck surfaces? I tried using polish on my pc but it doesn't really reach down between the non skid ridges on the deck surface. Thanks for the help!

Hey guys, I am considering buying this f-150 and wanted to see if any of you have any experience removing decals of this kind. I talked to the owner and the decals are stick on, but I have not seen them yet in person. Thanks for any advice you can give!

Hey guys I just bought a new car as you may have seen in the car and driver section and I have a question. The wheels are in pretty good shape and just need a little polishing to get them looking great, but I am trying to find out what parts need metal polish and which ones are clearcoated. I...

Would yall consider 200 a good price to fix 6-8 dings and a dent on 4 different panels? Thanks for the help.

Well I finally found it. 2001 740I sport package. 90k miles, fairly decent shape besides rock chips and a few dings. Only washed it and polished the tailights so far. Anyway here are the pics. heated rear seats polished tailight unpolished, notice the reverse...

Hey Guys, I need to get a new credit card and I wanted to see what suggestion y'all might have. There are so many cards with different reward systems that I can't make up my mind. Cash back, airline miles, credit at certain stores. What do you think is the best one? Thanks in advance.

Hey guys, I am trying to find a small waffle weave microfiber for drying my car. Most of the ww's I have found are fairly large and therefore fairly expensive. I would rather have more towels and have them be smaller than two large towels that cost me $30. Hopefully I explained this...

This wasn't really after a detail but there is no "photo" section so I just thought I would post them here. enjoy.

Hey guys just got a delivery of APC and optimum polish and both of these products container don't seem to be very full. You can easily see how full the APC is, and the optimum is filled to about where the line above the label on the bottle is. Maybe this is normal just seemed low to me. Let...

This wasn't a real detail but the paint looked great so I snapped some pictures. Like the title says, I just washed it and added a layer of 16. before tonight, the drivers side had about a 6 week old application of #16 while the hood had a 4 week old application of 845 and the passenger...

Well I tried to add a second coat of #16 to my hood today and when I did I ended up with a haze left over. It looks as though all the product has not been wiped off. Not noticeable at all really, you can only see it when the sun shines right and then it looks similar to holograms. Has anyone...

I bought one of these a long time ago and never use it anymore, but the other day I saw it and actually came up with a good use. I still wash just like always but before I start on a panel I use the Mr. Clean Auto Dry like a foam gun to spray soapy wash solution on the car. Works rather well...

ok, Since I felt as though the beads meant the paint was protected and so did some others, while others felt that it wasn't a great way to judge protection, I decided to do a test. This morning I went out and stripped all wax from the drivers side portion of my hood using 50/50 IPA mix. I...

what I want to know is whether yall think this shows protection or not, and how can you tell. I'll say it looks pretty good to me. To prevent any biased opinions I'll hold of on saying what it is and how old till there are a few responses. Thanks a lot.

Hello All, Well I am trying to help a friend out polishing his 98 Four Runner. Its red and the paint on the hood has almost no reflection at all. I had good success during a test with 3m perfect it II rubbing compound fine cut on an orange pad followed with #9 but the 3M is a pain to...

Well, I have been reading for a while, and decided I might actually have something worth adding every once in a while so I thought I would join. Just stopped in here to say hello and introduce myself. :xyxthumbs
