I have Klasse on my black Maxima since November 2001. I want to start fresh for detailing year 2002. If I clay would I take all the Klasse I previously applied? Do I still need to use AIO after I clay? Thanks in advance.

Hello fellow Canadians. :) My friend that works at Canadian Tire just told me that the PC7424 will go on sale in May. The exact date is May 25th. The sale price will be $179.99 plus tax of course. Head over to your local CT and see if they have it in stock. If they don't have them stocked...

I will be using a PC7424 for my detailing work. I haven't cleaned my paint before. I just applied Klasse last year without any paint cleaning. I plan on doing the following: 1. Wash with Meguiars Soft Gel car wash. 2. 3M SMR. Might have to opt for Finesse It II if swirls are still...

This is the follow-up to the Klasse beading post. I stated I would wash teh car this week and report back on how well Klasse held up. This post could be found in product reviews also. Gets better exposure in the detailing forum. I washed the car today since November 2001. It is winter in...

I washed the car today since November 2001. It is winter in Toronto and have been lazy. :) Went to the co-op washes. Had no choice. The temperature was not that cold out so I decided to wash the MAX. I have 3xAIO plus 2XSG coats of Klasse prior to the winter. Did not wash the car since...

Hello fellow Autopians. :) Spring is around the corner and detailing year 2002 is approaching fast for many detailers. Plan on choosing whether to use Pinnacle Sov. or Blitz as the topper to my Klasse I have on the Maxima. The colour is black. The best colour when the car is clean. :D Car...

The MF towel is a wonderful product. Problem is I can't keep it soft just like I first opened it from the package. I use liquid Tide to wash it by hand and rinse excessively. Sometimes, I don't use Tide if they are not that dirty. Is washing with tap water the cause of the towels being not...

Fellow autopians I know you can help me. :) My 99 Nissan Maxima's weather stripping around the drivers door is sticking when I open the door. The rubber sticks to each other and makes the sticking sound. What can I use to make the rubber not stick to each other and not turn the rubber brown...

I Klassed on October 1st and now I want to apply another coat of SG. The car has minimal dust. Can I just use a "Ultimate" (miracle towel TACS version) towel, and wet it to wipe down the dust and some water spots from the rain on the side panels before I SG? I don't feel that car is that dirty...

Klassed the car for the first time on Monday. Applying AIO and removal of AIO was very easy. SG on the other hand, was very hard to remove. Application of SG was easy though. I waited at least 20 minutes for SG to cure before buffing out. Using a normal TACS MF towel, it barely removed the...

Hello fellow autopians. Question is directed at fellow GTA autopians. Where can one buy distilled water in T.O.? Nobody seems to know. :confused:

Hi everybody. :) Want to know if AIO cleans stubborn brake dust on alloy rims? I have some stubborn brake dust stains on my rims. I applied mothers carnauba wax(liquid) in April and didn't wash the car till July. Well, the brake stains are etched in the wheel now. I tried just normal car...

Since, I had another topic on Connolly Food for home leather sofas, I thought about people using it on car leather seats. Anybody think it is better or worse compared to other leather conditioners or treatments?

I just bought a new three piece all leather sofa set. Cost me an arm and leg. But feels good to the touch. :) So does Connolly Hide Food work on home leather sofas? Will it give the protection and the necessary oils the leather needs in the home leathers? Thanks in advance. :)

I'm new to this forum. Have been reading on autopia car care for about one week now. I'm interested in removing the swirl marks on my black '99 Maxima. I heard that 3M SMR causes hazing on black cars. Am I better of with Finesse It II? Is Finesse It II more abrasive? Great forum. :)
