I have had problems getting odors out of vehicles completely, and have considered using an Ozone Generator to do the job. I have found no ozone machine reasonably priced for what they are. I solved this by going to a sign shop and getting a used Neon light transformer. (12kv) This power supply...

I know there are NW autopians out there, I see your cars on I-5 !:xyxthumbs

I was browsing tonight, and came across two Menzerna products that made me a little curious. They are over at : http://www.properautocare.com/polish.html ; The products are; Menzerna P085RD and PO106FF Polishes . The site has the disclaimer that there is no feedback on them and that they are...

:sosad It was a rainy, dismal weekend, nothing to do, so I go online to enjoy my favorite topics on Autopia.... Site was down:nixweiss Well, I guess I have to face up to another addiction. First, there is tobacco, then there is good sippin Bourbon, Now, there is Autopia.... I kept trying to get...

I have been lurking here a while. I love to try all sorts of new products, and explore new ways to detail:rockin . Experimentation with products sometimes has some nice suprises awaiting anybody adventurous to take a small risk now and then. Luckily there are no products that have adverse...

I love to try new products, waxes, sealants, foam guns, you get the picture.... I am always looking for that one more product to give my work the critical "edge" that pulls the observers eyeball into the paint.... How many brands of (1) wax,(2) sealants are there out there? The information on...

I bought a Wen Cordless Sander/polisher and spare battery recently. I thought it might be a good sealant/liquid wax applicator. Sometimes it is nice to have a cordless tool due to the hassle of tight spots, plus hassling with cords isnt fun. In addition, there is portability, it seemed a...

I am really impressed with the Zaino system. This is my daily driver with 13 year old paint. The color is interesting because it seems to look really different with varied lighting. The color is bland in some light , yet it has special effects as the angles and type of light changes. This pic...

I apologize, I suck at posting pics...I had to borrow a camera, mine is toast (this is low res), but I wanted to show some of you how dramtic lighting can be , even if the car's color Makes it difficult to show reflectivity with a picture.:nixweiss This is my daily driver with 13 year old...

Should Autopians only shop from brands advertized on Autopia to support these forums?:bounce

I did a web search as well as here on Autopia for "prepsol". Is this the correct name for this product? I am interested in trying this for use on a project. Anyone know of a source?

First of all, I am not sure where to post this thread. Secondly, I searched, but did not find a similar thread to add to, but if I have duplicated this subject, please forgive me. I am sure some of you have had this experience... Last night, there was a light sprinkling of rain. Pollen was...

I found a quantity of #26 today (for very cheap) and could not resist my hoarding instinct. I bought all that was there, 6 cans of paste, and 3 liquid. I am thinking of freezing the stuff for to preserve it until it is requested. Does freezing it hurt the product? :cool:

I have been wondering if I was dreaming this up, or does Makita manufacture a Rotary/Orbital Buffer. If so, who sells them? I remember seeing one (I think) somewhere. It would be nice to have this combo tool upon instances when I do a detail away from my garage. Less stuff to unpack and put...

I came across the Gold Plated Cyclo being offered at TOTL. Nice looking machine... I wonder if they sell out fast... Who needs a golden Cyclo?? Actually, its about the same price as my kit, but I got a lot more than just the buffer. :nixweiss Bragging rights I guess... "the man with the golden...

What causes a product to streak ? Is it the over abundance of polymer material, bad bonding, or just plain not curing. I had my first example of this using EXP this weekend. I am at a loss as to why it happened.

I just found some NXT Paste wax in a retail store and tried it on a panel, the panel looks a bit smoother, small spider web "remnants" looked greatly diminished.(deeper scratches I didnt want to waste clearcoat removing) I am just wondering if the NXT Paste filled them somewhat. (old daily driver)

I just used Z2Pro on my car, I have noticed that the dust deposit on it is unusually thick for just one day. We do not have a dusty condition, and my other cars doesnt seem to have much. The other cars have not been washed for several days. I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem ...

Does anyone know how much of what we put on the paint reamins there? I have heard it said that we wipe off much more of a given product than is left on the paint. How thick is SG or Z2pro when we buff it off?

Does anyone know if blackfire paint protective dissolve other sealants such as SG or Z2pro?
