I've tried searching for this comparison, but I must not be good at seraching. Anyways, have using the Klasse twins for years. My only complaint is the KSG being hard to remove sometimes. Was wondering if UPGP or another WOWA performs better (from a longevity standpoint) than KSG and is much...

A couple years back I bought some foam applicators that had a handle built into one side. I think they were called Handi-Applicators. They're great because you've got something to hold onto when applying product and your hand doesn't get as tired/cramped. I can't find them now that I need...

Does anyone have a PC7424 or equivalent that they want to sell or I have products that I'd be willing to do a partial trade for. PM me if you've got anything. Thanks,

Help me decide from your experiences on what my between-washes routine should be, keeping time in mind foremost, with cost being second. Sometimes I might let my vehicles get to a heavier road dust/grime state before doing anything. I think I remember reading where some have mixed QEW in a...

Did AIO and SG on my truck the other night. As I was buffing off the AIO, it occurred to me that I might not have to do that before following up with SG. That would save time and 1 or 2 dirty towels. Does anyone approach the twins application in this manner? I can't imagine there would be a...

Has anyone ever tried making a QEW concoction with car wash soap and water? Maybe add a little QD or WAUD? Isn't the principle the same between QEW and car wash soap - to encapsulate the dirt so it can be hosed or wiped away? Is QEW just car wash soap on steroids? I know - it seems like...

Been reading a lot about Spray-N-Wipe and QEW in hopes to minimize washing time. With either of these products, though, how dirty is too dirty to use them? Are they just for surface dust or will they work safely on a layer of road grime after a drive in the rain? If I were to blast the major...

I read quite often where people state that the durability/longevity of your sealant layer is dependent upon your wash frequency. In my simple mind, I can make arguments for longevity being better with more frequent or less frequent washing. So, what's the answer? Does more frequent washing...

Two evenings ago, I washed, clayed, washed, polished and AIO'd one of my cars. I then went to bed. The car sat in the garage all day yesterday, albeit the door was open and it was kinda windy. After dinner, I decided to do the first SG layer. I could see some light surface dust, so I used my...

Does anyone else have problems holding onto applicators when they polish or wax by hand? They tend to stick to the surface and want to roll on me. Am I not using enough product? I've tried a little detail spray to lube things up and this still happens. I usually end up holding an edge...

What do you guys recommend for cleaning/revujenating the black trim around windows and such that some manufacturers use? It's metal, painted black, but it doesn't seem to have a clear-coat on it. This stuff fades, oxidizes and looks quite bad compared to the paint. AIO didn't seem to help...

I picked up a bottle of Meguiar's Gold Class wash the other day and when I used it last night, it didn't make many suds at all. What's with that? Is there a "method" to making suds - geez, I hope not or I've been doing it all wrong;) Anyways, any ideas? Water temp matter?

The steering wheel in my vehicle is leather wrapped. It looks like leather, but feels like there might be a vinyl protective coating or something. Do manufacturers do this when leather is used on the steering wheel, or is it just dried out from neglect? What's the best approach to clean the...

What can I use to remove the road grime/mud/clay that the tires throw onto the lower body panels? Can I use EFhi on clearcoat and not damage it? Any other ideas? Thanks

I've been searching for a touch-less automatic car wash in my area that I can use in the winter to flush the undercarriages of salt and grime on my vehicles. They all have a "package" that includes the undercarriage flush, but every place that I've found also includes a clearcoat sealant / wax...

I need help determining what type of scratch I have. I can't feel it with my fingernail, yet it has a white appearance to it. Is this only in the clear-coat and the white is how it reflects the light, or is it through the color into the primer? Does dirt get trapped in there? AIO made it...

I was looking through the products on the CMA site, and noticed a Homecare Products section. They list several products for my two problems and I was wondering if anyone has any experience or suggestions that might help me out. 1) I have very hard water in my house that has etched (it...

While applying Klasse AIO, I notice that my foam applicators get dirty (not the color of the vehicle). I was wondering if I'm not doing a good enough job washing - most likely around trim and such, or is this just the cleaners in the AIO pulling contaminants off of the paint? Also, is it OK...

Guys, Thanks for all of the helpful information you share. I recently purchase the Klasse twins and applied AIO last night. I was having a problem with trying to spread my "nickel size" amount over the recommended surface area without the foam applicator drying out. What am I doing wrong...

I frequently take my truck off-road, as I'm sure most of you truck owners do. In the fall, it's not unusual for the rocker panels and wheel wells to get caked with wet mud and clay. What's the best way to clean this off while limiting the damage to the clear-coat? In the past, I've always...
