For as long as I can remember, I have had a haze over my windshield across the entire wiper span. Its not deep at all and I wonder if glass polish would help. Ive never polished my windows before and when I hit it with #7 to see what happens, It cleared up a little. Ive done some searching...

I read a couple of posts on here about euro tail lights and most of them are negative. I just purchased a pair and I am looking for some brutally honest feedback. I probally should have done this before I purchased them but didnt want to wait. Just click on the link below and tell me what you...

Recently Ive been using NXt tech wax as my fp.I want to top it with #16 to increase durability and depth. 1. Does #16 deepen black paint as much as #26. 2. How do you prefer to use #16, paste or wax when applying with PC? 3. Does the durability vary depending on weather itsa paste or a...

I have read several posts with people having good results using two or so coats of nxt tech wax followed by #16. To me, this sounds like the best of both worlds having a synthetic wax and then coating with a carnuba "ultimate protection". My question is after you coat with #16 can you...

Hello all, Its me again with yet another question. I own a 95 acura integra and have had an ongoing problem for years. The cover on the steering wheel airbags paint is chipping off. This has been getting worse over the years and I was told it was a defect but a recall was never instituted...

After experimenting with my PC, I realized I will not be able to remove all the marring and cobwebs with it. It did work well however but I guess my paints condition needs something stronger. Anyways I went over to my friends body/paint shop and he showed me what a little 3m and a rotary...

I think my question is fairly easy to answer. A few days ago I polished my rims with mothers aluminum polish/wax. This morning I decided to clean my car and of course started with the rims and tires. I used hot rims on the first tire and it worked well even though the rims werent that bad. After...

Today, I decided to detail my engine and completely degrease it. It was comming out great untill I moved on to the next step. My valve cover like most has some chips in the paint and is very noticable. So I decided to touch it up a bit with some hi temp black paint. To my surprise as I...

Recently, I purchased Dacp, #80, #7, #16. I planned on applying them in the same order listed above. My question is should I be using #82 vs. #80 after Dacp? I just realized #80 is more aggressive then #82 and possibly close to the level of #83. This might be a good question for you Mike. TIA

Today I ordered a gallon of Dacp from meguiars and was told to only follow it up with nxt. They said following up with #82 or #80 wasnt really necessary. I spoke with you on the phone a week ago about my possible single stage paint and its condition. Im not sure if you recall. Anyways, are they...

I was hoping that statement would attract your attention. In my search for buying my PC and pads I have learned quite a few things which brings up several questions. Why is the PC typically paired up with a 6 " backing plate? It is well known the counterweight needed to avoid vibrations must...

Hello fellow autopians, About two years ago I got a paint job on my black car and its not what I thought it was. After doing alot of research, I realize its single stage paint and doesnt have a clearcoat. I went to the body shop that did the work and they said they would prorate my old...

Hello Fellow Autopians, Do you have an older car with plastic moldings? If you do, I'm sure you have experienced the same problem I'm having. In the past, I never used any kind of silcone or any other products to protect my window moldings and boy am I regreting it now. They are...
