Any of you used it with a PC ? I am assuming it and a Dawn wash will remove a Klasse SG / M16 combo.

<span style="font-size:18px;">Subject ... IronX or like product.  Here is my question and we know IronX won't replace clay so its an added step/expence but has anyone tried these side by side tests on a panel on a car that has substantial rail dust per the pix provided? 1) Do nothing at this...

Extreme Body Wash & Synthetic Wax .. Had a chance to use it a few times now .. And it does leave something behind. Problem is, the something causes issues with the windshield wiper. All of a sudden I was having issues with micro bubbles / film on the windshield and didn't know what it was ...

What happened to all the threads here?

People always ask " My car is new .. should I clay it? It looks really good" Well I just picked up a 2013 that was received at the dealer 3days ago and built less than a month ago. It looked great and was mar free even in full sun. Well the hands can feel what the eyes can't see and a...

Most OEM wheels are they base / clear or lacquer?

A question came up in another thread about waxing/sealing OEM paint and how soon is it safe to do so. Common answer is "As soon as you take delivery" because it is already cured. The reason I am posting this is as most you know I like justification. Well I asked for justification...

Pulled out the Klasse SG today and put a layer on the Civic. Forgot how nice this stuff is and how easy it is once you know the tricks to using it. I think too many of us got hung up in the "boutique" product scenario. No pix cuz everyone knows what a shiny Civic looks like.

I posted this over in the product discussion forum before I realized this one existed so I apologize for the duplicate post. I currently use Optimum Polish 11 and what I like is I can use it in direct sun with good working time and no dusting. Can the HD polish be used in the sun and if so...

I currently use Optimum Polish 11 and what I like is I can use it in direct sun with good working time and no dusting. Can the HD polish be used in the sun and how is it for dusting and working time . Just looking for options and new things to try. And I like to do all my work outside. How does...

Anyone had any experience with it? I got a small sample at a car show yesterday ... doesn't look like it comes in sizes that would be useful if detailing a few cars. Sea Foam | Bugs B Gone | General Content - Bugs B Gone

I tried searching but no luck. My question is has anyone dillutied Opti-Bond Tire Gel with water and applied it with an syphon type automotibe paint sprayer? If so what ratio did you use. It would have to be cut down to the same thickness as 303 or Armorall Protectant etc. I...

Just got a chance to use my recently aquired Griots 6" R/O and I find the power cord to be very inferior. The cord is typical ex China electrical cord that is stiff , plasticy and has a memory. I even stretched it out in the sun for 2 hours and it still wouldn't lay out straight...

It seems the standard for the Griots is a 6" backing plate but its offered occasionally with a 5" backing plate. How does the smaller backing plate effect vibration? I know the PC offers a different counter weight when you change down to a 5" backing plate.

I know Prepsol wasn't too friendly with the old base/clear systems but what short/long term effects will/can it have on the base/clear paints used on todays cars?

Any more current info on Vapour wax .. or is it still concidered snake oil? There was a thread here on it in 07 but now another popped up over in a VW detailing forum . Basically not questioning it but asking for long term outcome. VWVortex.com - ??? Has Anyone Used These New...

Ok first off I know how to do it so don't say search ... what I'm looking for is the methodology when you have a front load high efficiency washer. Up till now I used Dawn in the top load washing machine and added vinegar to the rinse but the front loaders don't like high sudsing...
