I just bought the Citrus Wash & Gloss and gave it a try. I have never had problems will bad water-spotting before. This time the car is covered in dense water spots including all of the windows, which are always clear after a wash. Not sure where to go from here or what I did wrong. Can I...

Greetings, What is the going rate for detailing exotic cars (Porsche, Ferrari etc) Thanks!

Greetings, I am looking for some information on having someone detail exotics for me. What is the going rate for the initial job per car? Then, what is the rate to tidy up after the car is used? Thanks!

My car has horrible waterspots on the glass. I have tried vineger, windex etc. The only way I have fould to get them off it to use something like Medium Cut compound, yellow pad, and a rotory. Is there a liquid that will reove them? Thanks!

Greetings, I just got my new Makita rotory to try on my car after using a PC for a few months. After doing some experimenting I have found something interesting: Using the Advanced CMA pad on the rotory with Menzerna IP the paint is left dull and scratchy looking. If I switch to a Standard...

Is this water etching?(pic attached) The hood is completely covered with this. This pic just gets a few in the proper light though. I have tried as of today: PC with Meg's Medium Cut Cleaner and yellow CMA pad 3 times to no avail. Not to mention the countless times with 3MFCRC, Menzerna...

Hello all. A friend of mine has a Mercedes and would like it polished and protected. What is the going rate for such things?

My 2003 black car has horrible water damage (pitting) I have tried yellow pads with Menzerna IP and 3MFCRC to no avail. It is a clearcoated car. What would be the next step to remove the pitting?? I have gone over the surface about 4 times already with compounds and the same with...

I just prepared the paint, again, for Z5. I used Ajax because I do not have Dawn. After washing twice with the Ajax I hosed off the area I will be applying the Z5 to and noticed something interesting. The water came off in one complete sheet. I was pretty neat to watch the entire sheet slowly...

I have a 2003 black car. I have done just the hood with 4 coats of Z5 with Z6 in between every coat. I was the car once a week. It is never parked under trees or in dirty areas. After each washing I pour bottled water over the car to get the minerals off the paint. The well water is horrible...

I have a new black car and I do not seem to be having great fortune with Z5. Every time I wash the car ( I try to use the Perfect Drying Method) but I have to go over the car with vineger/water, then go over the whole car again with the Z6. In the sunlight the paint looks like it is covered with...

I have used my new PC for about 4-8 hours total. If I turn it on and grab the disc I can stop the spinning but not the vibrating. It is suppose to spin also, correct?

I just got some Menzerna IP and FP. Nice stuff I must say. It says there are no fillers etc and is water based. Do I still need to Dawn the car? Does AJAX work just as well? Or, can I just Zaino without the wash? Thanks!

Do they all make the same stuff basically with the same results? My '03 paint looks like it was through a war when I got it from the dealer and removed all the waxes and fillers they put on it.

I tried FCRC with CMA yellow pad on a PC and does not seem to be working on the "deeper" water spots. What would be the next to try? A wool pad (car is black with clear coat 2003) or a stronger RC? Thanks!

Quote from a rep from 3M who emailed me back. "Swirl mark remover is designed to remove most swirls and fill very small imperfections." Does that sound correct or just really vague? My findings so far is that SMR filled more than it removed. Usage was : PC with CMA yellow and white pads

The first thing you will want to use for your swirl marks is a product of ours called Scratch-X. Scratch-X is a safe, yet effective product for removal of very light swirls and scratches in todays paints. Simply use a nickle size drop of the Scratch-X to work a two foot by two foot area at...

Are the effects of the new Zaino diminished when applying over the old Zaino?
