Greetings everyone!! It's been a while since I've been here. I'm miss it! Here's my story. So after... months... of neglect and abuse.. Mr. Lemon (lemon year, silver focus) was given the Klasse treatment with claying and PPCL. After applying the first layer of SG, I decided to wait for a week...

My friend's black VW clearcoat became dull after using a rubbing compound to remove big scratches. What's the right product to restore the clearcoat? He's sure the clearcoat is still there. The pad didn't have any black paint after he was done using the compound. Thanks!

Greetings People!! It's been a while since I've been here. My folks got a house with a garage and I thought I'd Paint the whole garage for them. Now, I've seen really great garages here so please give some input what color will be good for the floors and the walls. Now the garage is...

Hi Guys! It's been a while since I've been here. I hope all is good, especially now with Christmas coming. I was hoping you guys might help me out. See, Mr. Lemon (Ford Focus) is sorta not running right. His gas mileage is dropping. When I got him 2 years ago, he was running 29/30 mpg. During...

What happens when you use too much SG in one application, aside from wasting more SG)? (too much= approximately.... at least 4x than recomended) :o Okay, I admit. That's what I did. I didn't have problems removing it. The silver seem a bit darker though.

I'm thinking of buying a strut bar for the focus. Now I found two of them but they're sorta different. here they are Strut bar 1 here's number 2 Strut bar 2 Is there any performance difference between the two? What makes the one that has the c collar thing more expensive? which...

Hi again. While window/net shopping for exhaust/ cat -back, (i can't afford one at all since nearly all of my money is in investments), I found this. the minitip. Powertone I was really curious about it so I even checked out the the patent office. Here's da link powertone minitip...

By the way, thanks guys for your answers with my "fake xenon" question. It's very helpful, very much appreciated. My next question would be this, Is there any such thing as a quiet exhaust mod? I've seen the riced up cars with exhaust the size of a cannon that make soo much noise it could...

I was looking through ebay and saw a bunch of "Xenon headlights" for the Focus. They are much cheaper than the regular halogens that I'm using. I burnt one of my stock lights and it cost about 14 bucks for one bulb. These so called "xenon" are about 17 bucks for a set and are brighter. Since...

EEEEEEKKK!!!!!:scared I just finished applying my second coat of SG. After it dried out I wiped it off with an MF towel. I was done right after the sun just set so I was llooking at the car using street light and I was seeing some, not much, haze. So I went back inside and grab the QD Sonus...

As my Autopia name says, I drive a top of the line quality made Ford that could put japanese and german cars to shame (LOL). And I've read some articles of this car having some brake issues. I'm hoping I'm not one of those poor souls who had landed on a Focus with brake issues. Well, here's...

EEEK! I just bought 2 aquapels from speedy metal polish site.. ARE THEY SUPPOSE TO COME IN THESE TINY container/APPLICATORS?!!! FOR 9.50 A pop!! I sure dang hope they last a long time.. The instruction that comes with it says that as soon as I pop open the container.. I must use ehm all...

I can't seem to find any post about doing this. If I do top 2x layers of Paste Glaz with one layer of Blitz, do you think the results will be shimmering shiny deep pool? Or will it completely negate the paste glaz effect? Is it even possible to make a deep "i wanna dive in this silver pool" look...

AFter using your foam pad applicator, how do you guys take care of it after using it for waxing? I just applied Paste Glaz on my car and (I think I made a mistake) after I was done, I washed my foam pad with DAWN to get rid of any wax stuff left inside it fearing it might cake when I use it...

Hey guys, I found the speedymetalpolish.com website where they sell Aquapel. Anyone know any other sites they sell it (for a cheaper price:rolleyes: )? Does any local stores sell it too like NAPA, wal-mart or such? I got tired of my rainx. I'm switching to aquapel after reading around...

Okay, I'm in the middle of detaling... How do you guys clean your dirty MF applicators and towels? Right now I'm soaking the dirty ones in DAWN and planning to dump all of ehm into the laundry after I'm done. Will good old laundry detergent get rid of the chemicals in the applicators and...

I'm in the middle of detailing me car.. Here are my steps.. 1) DAwn wash 6:00 pm STatus: Done. Took me about 2 hours since I'm not allowed to use the hose due to water restrictions. So I used the bucket trick. Some shoot me. 2) Clay bar with Pinnacle PolyClay 8:00 pm Done. Yipes! I...

Man, I was looking forward to doing the whole Perfect Shine thing on my car this coming holiday weekend. Here's was schedule: Wednes. (after I get home 3:30 pm) Dawn, Clay, PPCL, AIO,SG Thursday Second SG Friday...

As per Jimwh's instruction, Grab the other applicator and do the same thing (Clap the applicator pad in your hands a few times to get rid of any loose fibers and trim any loose threads.) DO NOT WET IT! Put it aside and shake, shake, shake the Sealant Glaze (SG). Pour about a dime sized drop...

I have been reading about the infamous Klasse haze. I did experience it when I first Klass'd my car. I just wanted to ask if anyone found NEW tips and tricks to deal with it? (other than switching to Zaino) So far from the previous posts, all I got is to use a dry applicator. Any additional...
