So my car had these rubber strips around the edges of the wheel wells that I took off today because people say all it does is lock moisure and dirt in them, causing rust...so I took them off today and low and behold there is minor rusting developing in the inner edges :( What am i going to have...

Whenever I finish pumping gas at the gas station, I pull out the nozzle a few drips of gas always seems to fall onto the side of my car. I have tried shaking the nozzle before pulling it out yet that only seems to work certain times. So anyways, will it do any damage even if I wipe it off...

A few weeks ago I put 3 layers of Z5 and 3 layers of Z2 on my car. Today I was washing it and noticed 3 fairly long scratches on my front bumper...(I think it happened when the hose came off the ground and brushed the bumper :( ) So what can I do now? Will anything i use just remove the Zaino...

What happened? I clayed my whole car the other day and it was so smooth. Then I followed up with 3 coats of Z5 yesterday and it was even smoother. Now today i put on 3 coats of Z2 and it's not so smooth anymore :( I think maybe some dirt from the wind got onto it was I buffed out the wax or...

Well it says it needs to be cleaned out before 12 hours of the mix being in there or it's screwed, and I have gotten a good majority out but it's so small that I cant fit much in there to clean it all out, is there any secrets to do so?

Will ZFX still make the polish dry fast if the temperature drops a bit? I plan to start using zaino on tuesday, but wednesday is supposed to rain and that's when I plan on putting on 3 coats of z2. My car will be under cover in a car port (garage with no doors), but it will most likely be colder...

Here's the dilemma. When trying to apply thin coats I can't see anything actually going onto the paint surface. I have searched up on it here and people have said that as long as the applicator has gone over it then you should trust yourself that it's been applied. I have a hard time believing I...

Does anyone do this? I have heard of some people using a claybar on their windows as well as waxing them when they wax their car. Does this actually help with shine/smoothness or is it pointless?

Is it necessary to dry my car before I begin claying just after I washed it? It seems like a pain to dry it off if im going to wash the car again right after I clay.

How often should Z1 and Z2 be applied to your car? I live in B.C. so it rains quite a bit, but I don't drive my car as much as most daily drivers (about 5000km a year) Thanks

http://www3.telus.net/acura604/touchup.jpg Has anyone used one of these? You pick them up at the honda dealerships and use them to touchup chips your car. I'm thinking of buying one to patch up some small chips, but im not certain on how well it will work out. If anyone has used this or has...

I have a decent sized chip on a piece of black plastic next to my taillight. It really shows up and im wondering if theres anything I can use to fill it in with that will make it less noticable Here's a pic of the plastic im talking about, this isnt my car but it's the same kind of car. Look...

Ok, recently I wetsanded my headlights, I had to start at 600 grit for some of the deeper scratches, and worked my way to 2000 grit to smooth it all out. Then I used the Novus 3 step system, where I used the heavy scratch remover, then fine scratch remover, then polish etc. It got most of the...

I know that it can cause your car to rust, but what parts? Should i be worried about cleaning the wheel wells off with salt on it, or just the actual paint?

I may have to wet sand my plastic headlights, so I have some questions. 1. If the scratches aren't deep, but cannot be removed by just a polish, what grit sandpaper should you use? 2. How much pressure should be applied when you sand the headlights? 3. After you are done I hear the...

Im wondering if Novus #3 heavy scratch remover would be safe to take out scratches on my headlights. Their website says "Not recommended for use on coated plastics". What will happen if I try to apply some on the bigger scratches?

I might be purchasing some plastic jdm headlights for my 93 prelude, but they seem to have a couple of big scratches on them, and then a bunch of real small hairline scratches. Im wondering if I would be able to remove the scratches, if so, what products would be best to get rid of the...

I have Meguiars Show and Shine that I use for other purposes, but I don't know how well it works on the trim, or how long it lasts. Does anybody know if this product will be fine, or if I should buy something else to use on my trim..i'm open for suggestions.
