I turned my dad onto CarPro`s Water Spot Remover based on my excellent results on my car but his Vette has water spots that are really old and he`s not having the same results. He said that it did make a difference but not enough for his pleasure and I think he`d be willing to try ONE more...

Friggen NOPE! As a few of you know I just did my car in CSL/EXO V4 within the last few weeks in a Hail Marry effort to prevent or minimize the bird etchings that I fight on a daily basis. Well, today I got my answer and the coating didn`t help at all. There are two coats of CSL and one EXO V4...

This is old news to a lot of people but since I’m an amateur who is still trying to find the best materials to polish my black car with I thought I would post up my recent thoughts from comparing Meg205 and Griots Perfecting Cream in case others have the same issue I have had with M205. Last...

I have some CSL and EXO V3 left over from practicing on my truck. Now I want to do the "show" car and was wondering if it`s worth putting both CSL/EXO on the truck/door jams to help ease of cleaning them before a show or will EXO be enough? Usually when I wash the car I don`t always do the...

As a practice vehicle I did CSL and EXO V3 yesterday on my truck and I see this morning that there are several spots where I didn`t get V3 completely wiped clear on a door and naturally it won`t wipe clean now. If I apply another coat of V3 on the door will it cover these splotchy areas? It`s...

Realistically, how much time do I need to wait before I can drive? I`m practicing applying CSL/EXO on my truck before doing my car but its getting difficult to give the truck a full 12hrs of cure time in the garage before needing to drive it. I was hoping that I can apply it around 8pm in the...

Watch a GT-R which runs 9.0 @ 160 mph looks like it`s tied to a tree: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wB6dKuv0oB4 I want one!:ph34r: ks

I was being facetious about the "secret" testing that someone may be doing, I thought people would understand that. MFR`s (including myself) will release info all the time before a product release to create buzz which helps get orders before it`s actually released. And, yes, I have required...

I`ve researched ceramic coatings for the last year making a spreadsheet to log MFR specifications (chemical composition, hardness, etc) and I`ve read the many postings and test results posted on forums and I do have a favorite that I will probably use. But anyone hear of any Brand NEW ceramic...

Does anyone have seats with kevlar cloth that they can give an opinion on about the cloth`s durability? It seems the cloth over seat bolsters tend to wear quickly so I`m contemplating replacing a few of the high wear areas with kevlar cloth. It seems to reason that kevlar would resist wear a...

I`m not an expert but my experience comes from my first paint job a few months ago when I painted my hood with a clear/base process. With this said the color goes on thinner and lighter. It`s simply there to create the color and may not even have much of a shine. The clear is sprayed over the...

I had a freshly painted hood (top and bottom) and while I was wet sanding the top of the hood, the bottom of the hood ended up getting a lot of water that eventually dried leaving a lot of calcium deposits. I picked one area where I first tried polishing the spots off with M205 (no luck) then...

I`ve recently discovered how to finish polish the black paint on my Mustang using a final polishing coat of Meg`s 205 and absolutely love the results. But I also see they make a #9 which is finer than the 205 then a #3 which is finer than the #9. I have both the #9 and #3 on order for testing...

After a 3 month project my car is covered in fiberglass dust and several times during project time I had to set the car outside for a day where it got lightly rained on. Later this week I need to get all this dust off and do as little damage as possible. Before all the glass dust floated around...

New member here but I just finished a project that I`m really proud of so I wanted to share it. I`m a major DIY`er making a lot of the custom parts for my car and this time I wanted a custom fiberglass hood but instead of using a bunch of bondo and panel adhesive I chose to make a mold and mold...

Several things: 1. Poor washing technique and wrong washing materials which is something I plan to research this winter. The car can get quite dirty requiring "wiping" with washing materials to get the muck off and being black it shows every little issue if not done properly. 2. I...

I apologize if there is a thread already outlining answers to my questions but I`ve been researching threads on coatings for 12 hours and I haven`t seen any answers to some questions I have. Feel free to post links if easier this way. I`ve save a bunch of links from youtube and Detailed Image on...

Last Fall I spent a week polishing my black 2002 twin turbo Mustang the day before a car show and when I took it out into the sun I realized I had completely failed..arrgg. So last winter I started researching how to accomplish a show quality Black finish which eventually lead me to these...
