Hi Everyone - I've fallen out of the loop somewhat with work, moving, etc. and I'd like to detail my car with the products I have - could some of you give me a hand with layering, etc? Do I apply the products as follows: polishes, sealants, then carnuba? So in this case, either SSR2, or...

Last question guys, ha! Can FMJ go right over polish (also applied by PC) or will it remove any fillers contained in IP or FPII? Also, I have some poorboys polish w/carnuba lying around... could this possibly replace a polish (that I'd have to buy) to go over IP and not have to apply...

Anyone know how similar these products are? I'm looking to place a product order and the site I'm looking at isnt' carrying FPII, only the blackfire gloss enhancing polish. Does the FPII have slightly more cutting power but less gloss? I just wanted to make sure that IP followed by the...

Hi Everyone - Recently purchased a PC and in the past I've ordered my supplies from Chip at sportscarcare.com, but he can't ship Menzerna products right now. I need: - new backing plate (5 in) - pads - Menzerna IP and FPII Can someone recommend a good website with fast shipping...

Hi Everyone - Recently purchased a PC and in the past I've ordered my supplies from Chip at sportscarcare.com, but he can't ship Menzerna products right now. I need - new backing plate (5 in) - pads - Menzerna IP and FPII Is there anywhere I can go in MA to get these...

I've been so busy this summer (I know...no excuses) that I've let my paint go pretty bad. My question is, what types of prep products should I use since it's very dirty. Are there any good pre-washes available that I can use even prior to the wash soap to loosen up the grime? Also, I'm...

I was just hoping someone could clear this up for me. Is QEW and poorboys Spray & wipe more or less cleaners, not quick detailers? If I were to go to a touchless wash during the winter, would you go with spray & wipe then mf's after the wash vs a QD? I'm wondering this because I would think...

Where is the best website (or store in MA) to buy a PC, as well as a starter kit as far as pads, supplies goes? :confused: I'll be getting this as a gift, and won't be buying it myself, and the person buying it will have no idea about the product, so I want to make the purchase as easy as...

First off, are there any sites that you can buy QEW as well as my other products to reduce shipping charges? I hear about people washing with it in the winter - does the solution freeze? Or can you use it at any temperature with warm water? Lastly, does it streak if not dried properly, or...

Getting cold here in MA, and I'm looking to do my last serious wash/polish/sealant before the winter. Which one of the below three products do you feel will give me the best winter protection along with ease of use to apply by hand? Also, due to time, I may only be able to apply the sealant...

Lately I've found that applying both wax and polish seems easier and uses less product when I use megs foam pads over MF applicators. Is using the foam for every type of hand application recommended? Also, I'd like to try using a detailing spray when removing polish and wax (I hope...

I'm lost - on black paint (in this case, black subaru paint), what do I do after a rainstorm? I feel like if I towel off most with a microfiber or waffle weave towel when the paint is dirty that I'm only putting scrathes on the finish? :wall On the other hand, if I leave the water on there...

To start, I take meticulous care of my car, the right mitts, microfiber, poorboys/Klasse products, Mazerna, etc., etc. I washed/polished/waxed my car (BY HAND) yesterday, and it looked great, really wet and shiny. Today I look at it close in the sun (from even a few feet away it looked...

Need a little help here... I've been using poorboys polish w/carnuba topped with Blue Natty's and I've been getting good results.. BUT, should I be using a poorboys EX-P product prior to Blue Natty's instead?? :o Reason I ask is because it seems lots of people use AIO prior to carnuba...

If I have to use a pressure washer in a pinch because I don't have time to detail my car, will it take my wax, or sealant off even if it's not held close to the paint?? I appreciate the help, I'd just like to know if I'm better off just leaving my car dirty until I can properly wash/wax it...

I have an obsidian black pearl 05 wrx, and I just hand detailed everything last week, took about 8 hours.. I know, no PC yet, but I'm getting one. So, it poured in MA last night, and my freshly cleaned car was subjected to tons of large water spots. The car IS technically dirty, I mean, I...

Do i really need to purchase a specialty wheel wax/sealant instead of just putting some meguiars paste wax on my rims? I would think the normal carnuba wax would repel, or at least make it easy to take off any brake dust just like the more expensive products. Thanks.

Just this weekend I started w/ SSR2, then polish w/carnuba followed by Natty's blue paste wax, car looks great. But, would I be better off using EX, or EXP before the Natty's? Also, does anyone have a take on the poorboys products (both the polish w/carnuba and EX products vs. the Klasse...

Anyone prefer one over the other? I already have some AIO, but the poorboys polish w/carnuba sounds great, even sounds like it may help take out small swirls unlike the AIO. Anyone?

Can anyone help me get the best mitt before saturday? I'm a little leary of the microfiber mits with only a little nap on black paint. Does anyone know a site I can get a great mitt on prior to this weekend, I am in MA. P.S. total newb question, but when applying wax/polish, do you use...
