During my forum hiatus, for LSPs I have been using mostly WG Deep Paint Sealant and a gallon of Blackfire Midnight Sun Spray Wax. I was getting lazy over time and just using the spray (love it for instant gloss and slickness) often. I had a gallon of the BF spray wax and now down to less...

Does BF soap leave anything on the paint for shine, etc?

I was cleaning out my detailing stuff and was sorting through the buffing pad and looks like some I had not used in a long time crumbled on touch. Some were like new. The primary ones were black and red foam (think these are euro foam). My guess is I did not clean them well enough so this may...

I just learned that Meguiars acquired Chemical Guys in 2022. CG gets a lot of shelf space at Walmart. Is there any more on this ?

I have both and after looking at the R3 recently, the products seem to be chemically similar. Are they? Same consistency, color, smell.

I have not been around much but checking in more regularly. I cancelled my smugmug account a while back so a lot of the images I had posted are gone. I still have my 97 Dakota!

The air bag light came is on on my 2007 Lincoln MKZ at 118K miles. I guess it finally detected it has a Takata air bag. I am not expecting Ford to contact me when they get replacement parts. (Actually I am sure t is the passenger seat sensor)

Did I miss something? I see Adam`s now selling their new Swirl Killer polisher is clearly saying Made in China.

I am prepping my Dakota for its winter protection and decided to try Adam`s Strip Wash. I had done a review recently on Chem Guys Clean Slate. The LSP was a mixed bag. The top surfaces was pretty much shot but the sides were still sheeting water quickly. It is the remnants of Blackfire...

I was doing my fall detail and decided to try Chem Guys Clean Slate to see if it would strip old waxes and sealants as advertised. I actually was not expecting complete removal but looking to see if it was a "strong wash" to clean better than the average soap. I prefer stronger cleaning since I...

Lochte apologizes about his claims about being robbed without admitting he lied. Too bad.

Has anyone wall mounted their master blaster and not used the official bracket from Metro? If so, how did you do it. (Oh boy, I sure was going to get clever with the title and played it safe).

Conservative values..

Do you have a vehicle dash camera?

Non-political....

2016 plans 1. Try out some new polishes (BOSS creams and Rupes) 2. Sell / trade my Flex (just do not need two polishers) 3. Go through my stuff and discard a lot of older stuff 4. New detailing space set up (maybe more on this later) 5. Maybe get some new quick disconnects (those made by Rapidreel)

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year !! I hope everyone has a safe holiday. :Sleigh:christmas:

I finally had a chance to use my Meguiar's Rinse Free Wash. I was getting ready to do some driving and wanted a clean car before hitting the road. The wash is blue and has a nice smelling scent. I used two bucket wash method with the soap mixture in one bucket and water with a grit guard in a...
