    Nufinish paste vs liquid

    Someone recommended Nufinish to me in a thread here a few weeks ago and i love it. But i didn't find the paste so i got the liquid. Now i have found it in paste form near me so i wanted to ask, is the paste better in any way? not concerned with ease of apply/remove, just longevity/look. Please...

    Need wax recommendation

    Hi, I'm not a detailer and to be honest I'm not really concerned with getting a nice shine or any of that. All i care about is finding an over the counter cheap wax that will last a fairly long time. Don't care if the look is minimal at all. This car has to be parked under a tree where it gets...

    Mothers sealer glaze=micro polishing glaze?

    I've used mothers "sealer glaze" for years and i love it. I'm not here to ask for alterantives because i'm 110% happy with sealer glaze. But what i want to know is has anyone who's used sealer glaze tried the supposed replacement for it called "micro polishing glaze"? And if so, is it truly the...

    Megs NXT 2.0 question

    Before i ask, please don't bother recommending another wax. Been there done that and i absolutely love this stuff and won't change. But i do have a question about it. I read in a review where someone said they love the paste but have heard (tho not yet tried) the liquid version is even better. I...

    Which for drying...chamois or synthetic ?

    I've always used real chamois, but i need a new one and i was thinking whether I should try one of those synthetic chamois or go for another real one. Money isn't an object so i'd just as soon get a real one unless the fakes work better. And note that i'm not a detailer or fanatic about it at...

    wter based paint care

    I have a triumph motorcycle that has a very nice quality paint job but it's water based and therefore looking at it scratches it. I can make it look incredible and like new with a buffer and mothers sealer glaze, but thats not feasible to do often. I use microfiber but even that scratches the...

    opti-seal....whats as good but cheaper?

    Someone gave me a sample of opti-seal and i was blown away at how well it protected against birdcrap. A quick shot of a hose and a baked on turd the size of a baseball (no exaggeration!) came right off instantly. I'm not particularly interested in a great look, just protection because i am...

    Chrome...can it be polished?

    first let me say that i am quite sure there is no way on earth to do this. But i'm asking because if there IS a way it wouldn't be the first time something i thought was impossible turned out to be possible after all. I have a bike with a lot of chrome. All of it has what amounts the same thing...

    Good OTC final polish?

    I have been using mothers scratch remover to polish out my bike's tank and fenders about once every couple months. It works great, but i worry the abrasive is too coarse to use it with this kind of frequency, plus i wonder if theres something that will look even deeper and glossier. It's a newer...

    Anyone know the name of this microfiber?

    I got them at pep boys, 2 to the pack, light blue, different size fiber on either side, SUPER soft, and said they're for polishing. I believe it was $5 for the 2 pack. Does anyone know which brand i'm talking about and know of an online link?

    Product for clear coated wheels?

    I have a motorcycle with polished aluminum wheels, but they are clear coated. so when i use something like detailer on them it leaves streaks because the slightest streak that you might not even see on a car's painted surface is refected from the polished metal under the clear coat. It also...

    What do you think of E1 nanowax?

    I ask because i got some NXT after asking about what to try here and i thought it was good. But today i found nanowax in the paste can at big lots for $3 ! And wet wipe and shine which i've always felt was one of the best for $2. Had i not been on my bike i'd have grabbed several WW&S and will...

    Polishing aluminum

    Just for the record i'm not totally in the dark about this. I've polished metals many times. But this is one of the finer details of aluminum i've never been able to get perfect. Once the metal is glass smooth i have tried simichrome, mothers, and blue magic metal polishes, and the results look...

    I assume there are no cleaners in this stuff and so i can layer it till it looks like glass, no ?
