Guys, it looks like Turtle Wax did an intro of their new "ceramic" product line in Arizona recently. Maybe 5 new SiO2 based products. I viewed on "Pan the Organizer" Youtube channel. (I`m not posting the link, easy to find.)

Armor Shield IX nano ceramic coating Guys, has anyone heard of this product? For some reason, my son felt compelled to buy it with his hard-earned $$. Appears to be straight out of China. He spent pretty much the entire day on his "new" car yesterday polishing and I got home just in time to...

Guys, we picked up this leftover 2016 KTM this past weekend. The gas tank (cover) is plastic and done in a satin black finish which I think is going to show everything. I don`t know if I should leave it alone or try to protect it/coat it? I don`t want to alter the appearance, I don`t want to...

I thought it was a bit "different".

A few fotos from this very well attended event:

I spent a bit of time freshening the single stage paint on my BMW bike this weekend. Somebody sent me a bottle of this American Shine California Clear Coat product about 12 years ago to sample. It seems like a glaze but I'm not really sure about that. The information on the bottle is very...

Having mentally transitioned to coatings and their related products, I'm gradually getting rid of all my "traditional" products. This Ultima shampoo is about 35% - 40% full: JEFFS Werkstat needs no introductions: Black, horizontal marker indicates fill level: I guess I'm looking for...

Thanks to Ronkh for inspiring me to try the Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Coating. It’s the fifth coating I’ve purchased and his review intrigued me. I wanted to get it on a couple of panels on my coating test bed, our ’06 A6 Audi wagon. I’ve already got some panels done with Duragloss’s...

I've been looking for a pre-filter for a while for my Shop Vac.  As the washable Gore-tex filter ages, it seems like it's plugging up more frequently.  I've washed it a fair number of times  - - perhaps that's partially responsible for its diminished performance.    I stumbled upon these...

NPR did a brief 3-minute bit on PDR and those who roam the globe offering this specialized service:   <span style="font-size:10px;">http://www.npr.org/2014/06/17/322800366/dent-guys-chase-hail-storms-to-find-repair-work?ft=1&f

Guys, I'm a bit surprised there hasn't been more excitement and discusssion around this newcomer.  I ordered the package plus an extra bottle of Squeaky Clean earlier this week.  It arrived today.  I might attack one of the cars tomorrow and see how it works.  I'm a bit concerned about it being...

New aerosol product from AA called Outlast Tire Glaze:     Outlastâ„¢ Tire Glaze   Give your tires a durable shine   "A set of glossy tires is just the trick to give your vehicle a finished look. Armor All, a leader in car care, developed this revolutionary new formulation to...

There had been some discussion over the past week about CD-2 engine compartment detailer. AFAIK, that company's assets were purchased by Turtle Wax and the products no longer exist. I've got a couple cans of the stuff and use it maybe once or twice during the course of the year. I'm not a huge...

https://flightcar.com/ I saw this on the news this morning and haven't been able to stop thinking about the "concept" since. It's quite unique. I guess they're located 5 mins from Boston's airport (and other cities). You leave your car with them, they drive you to the airport in a limo...

Guys, I bought a large (32oz) bottle of HD Polish this week. I'll never use up that much product and am looking to sell 16oz for $22. Price includes shipping in USA. You can PM for interest. Thanks.

Autoglym Car Glass Polish I had heard good things about this product over the past couple of years and thought I would give it a try. The windshield on one of our cars is kind of nasty and needed some attention. There's some wiper build up that I have not been able to remove. I'm going to...

I spent some time this weekend doing my spring cleanup on my car. My basic game plan is the same I’ve used for years: Clay (Meguiar’s Mild yellow) > KAIO (via machine) > 2X FK 1000p (via machine)</SPAN> At the end of my session, everything looked and felt as expected, the surface was hugely...

Guys, when Opti Coat was introduced a while back, there was some discussion around its ability to help protect against or minimize stone chips across the front end of the car. Has there been any follow up on this or conclusive evidence that it does offer some protection? I'm giving some...

Guys, the WiFi section is completely dead on my son's iPhone 3GS (iOS 5.1). I'm trying to figure out if it would be possibe to do a reverse tethering strategy (Win7 computer providing internet connectivity to iPhone, not vice versa). It seems like I should be able to connect the iPhone to his...

I spent some time this weekend trying to polish my wheels while they are off the car during the winter season. I cleaned the wheels a week ago so I "thought" I was starting with clean wheels…this was not a cleaning task, but a polishing task. It turns out that the first set of wheels soiled my...
