I just picked up one of the NOMAD portable pressure washers for winter use here in New England/Antarctica. Any tips or tricks for using this thing to maximum potential? I'm planning on using it with ONR. T

Anyone have a suggestion for a good PDR person or place in MA? I have a few small things I want to get taken care of. Thanks

We've had a really tough winter so far in the northeast (2nd snowiest december on record, probably the saltiest/sandiest on record though :) ) so the daily driver has been really taking a beating. Top that with well below average temperatures and you have a recipe for a filth. Today we got a...

Wondering what methods you have had success with when cleaning the snow and ice off of a vinyl convertible top window. Car is a porsche boxster, snow frozen onto the rear window (not a heated window) because nobody was home to clean it off before it froze. Suggestions?

USed aquawax yesterday for the first time, and I swear it is the exact same product as Eagle One Spray Nanowax. Smells the same, feels the same, applies the same, looks the same.... Anyone else experience this or am I going out of my mind? Don't get me wrong - its great stuff, but I never...

Started with this.... Ended with this:

I recently purchased both Optimum Polish and Optimum compound to "refill" my polish stock, which consisted of Menzerna IP and FPII. Based on the reviews and results posted here, it seemed like a viable alternative, and I enjoy trying new products, so I decided to try them. Last night, I...

Who makes a good one, and where is the best place to purchase? Thanks. T

Hey guys, Just wanted to give you a heads up that C.A.R Products Inc. in Holyoke MA is having a wetsanding/rotary buffing class at their shop in Holyoke on Feb 10th from 8:30am-12:30pm. You can find the link to the registration at C.A.R. Products -- Manufacturer of Cleaning Solutions ...

I'm looking to replenish my supply of menzerna polishes. Specifically, I'd like to try the professional line polishes designed for the harder clearcoats. Is Properautocare the only place to purchase Menzerna in the US? Additionally, if anyone is looking to sell some, I'd be intersted in...

Can anyone recommend a very good Paintless Dent Repair shop in MA? A Friend of mine just got a small ding in his M3 that is the perfect candidate for PDR. Please let me know.

Just received Optimum Poli-Seal for the first time today (thanks Danase!) and naturally I opened it up and tried it out (I have an old hood that I keep inside for testing). I had purchased a few gallons of Eagle One professional Cleaner Glaze 2 (CG2) from a local "big lots" type store, and my...

Speaking strictly from a product standpoint, do the new VOC regulations help or hurt detailers. In other words, are the new VOC compliant products better or worse (less diluted? more diluted?) than they were before. Part of me would like to think that some products would have fewer solvents...

A friend of mine has been applying his collinite using a PC; he applies the wax onto the pad with a butter knife (I do the same), only he "dug" the wax out of the middle, and now his tin of wax is pretty much useless for applying by hand because the wax is all up and under the sides. A common...

Just finished up winter prep on this car this afternoon, and finally have a working digital camera. Steps Include: QEW exterior Menzerna FP via PC w/white pad Eagle One CG2 via PC w/white pad (nice product, just using it for the second time) Collinite 476s by hand Tires Dressed with...

The Product is Buffalo Milke "spray wax" I've been meaning to post about this product for quite some time but I haven't been able to sit down long enough to write out a review! I started using this product over the summer when I saw it at a local speed shop. Looked interesting enough so I...

Got a few gallons of Eagle One CG2 at a closeout sale and I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with it. Is it any good? Any tips you can pass along? I tried it on my old pick-up truck and it seemed to do a decent job of adding some wetness and masking swirls (the truck has minor...

A friend of mine just sent me this website and I thought you fellow autopians would appreciate it. Reminds me of the old "rice boy" tickets that you used to be able to print out on riceboypage.com or whatever the site was. Check out the pics of the durango! youparklikeanasshole

Well...its been a bad bad winter so far. Every time we get a dry spell, its freezing cold, and every time we get any "warmth" (i.e. above freezing) it is followed by or accompanied by precipitation, and every time we get precipitation, it is followed by frigidity (-25 wind chill here today...

I've been to three Wal-Marts, four Autozones, and a Lappens today looking for NXT, and NONE of them have it or have any clue about it. Did NXT not get shipped to New England because our weather is so bad there is no point in cleaning ones car? Help!! I really want to try this stuff out...
