I have been using the 7424 for a few years, not that much, maybe twice a year, and have not really experimented. I have been using the 6" counterweight with a 5" yellow hook'n loop backing plate and a 6.5" pad. After doing a little reading I am wondering if that is a good setup. Should I...

Rutland Stove Glass Cleaner I use this stuff for my wood stove here in Vermont. Those windows get nasty and this stuff will wipe off the worst crud and glazed, baked-on soot with just one or two wipes. Before that I was scraping it off with a razor. No other glass cleaner worked. Wonder...

I tried out a sample of this at the recommendation of some folks here a while back and promised a review. I finally got my garage set up and did it right. I applied this both by hand and by PC. Once just outside in warm weather the other time using a hair dryer to heat up the glass first...

When I got my 7424 it had the 5" counterweight. I took it off to replace it with the 6" weight, as recommended. When I took off the 5" I noted a little black rubber bumper-thingy underneath it. When I tried to put on the 6" weight the rubber bumper thing did not allow the 6" weight to sit...

I thought that the pads were supposed to last a while, right? I got the 7424 with a 6" velcro backing plate and the CMA 6" pads. After doing about 1/2 of the wife's car the white pad I was using started getting frayed around the edges and bits of blue foam were flying off as I was polishing...

Had my first try with my new 7424 today. Bought it from Coastal Tool with the 6" velcro plate and 6" counerweight kit. Seems to be fine up to about 5 to 5.5 speed. After that it does not speed up incrementally but just seems to "jump" to high speed, vibrates madly, and splatters product all...

I have pretty good paint on a 1.5 year old Honda Accord that has been well maintained up until about 5 months ago. It has been clayed and Klass'd up until that time every few months. Due to a move and new job it has been neglected for about 4-5 months (only even washed twice over that time)...

I have always loved the castrol stuff for the winshields. The someone convinced me to try Rain-X again. I stopped using it because of glare it would cause at night. Well I tried Rain-X again and again I still hated it. Compared to the Castrol stuff it seemed to leave a fine haze on the...

I have noticed that my bottle of SG has an awful, rotten smell to it. I am not sure if that is normal or if the product has gone bad in the back of my car :nixweiss

I'm itching to buy some as I really don't care for the Lexol I already have, but it is a bit pricey ($20 for 16oz). Anyone get a chance to try it yet?

A while ago i stopped using Rain-X because I felt it left a haze on the windows which made it more difficult to drive at night. Since then I have been using the Castrol stuff that comes in the purple bottle. I just went hunting for a refill the other day and no one was stocking it anymore -...

As I don't have a grarge I don't have a DA yet either. Somehow I got long (but superficial) linear scratches on my winshield. Would ordinary polish work for this application?

Only having used it once before I took the bottle of Meguiar's Scratch-X out of the trunk to buff out a scratch and literally water-consistency stuff just poured out of the bottle - normally it's a white paste. I shook it up well and still...watery and clear with tiny little white chunks. What...

A while back I suggested that the Mother's clay package was a rip-off because they make you buy several items just to get the clay. Since then I purchased the Pinnacle clay (3-bar package). The Mother's clay seems far superior to me and worth the cost of the kit. The pinnacle clay just seems...

Can be purchased at Target for $5.99 a bottle. Has a small amount of carnauba. Spray on, buff off the fine haze w/ MF. Restores the just-waxed look in minutes without having to completely rewax. The only other one I have tried is Mothers and that just seemed like spraying water on my car to...

After a 2,200 mile road trip there were at least 10 scratches on my new AV6 Coupe which made me completely crazy. I bought ScratchX purely because it was the most expensive (of those on the rack at Pepboys) and I wanted the best. The most it took was 4 applications by hand to completely remove...

I used to refer often to the detailing guides which were linked on the left hand side of the home page and a few days ago they went away ?!? Where can I find those links again? Thanks

Don't get me wrong, I love the stuff for detailing. Used it on my fiancee's car with a horrendous finish and it's like new now. But for god's sake, it's CLAY. Next to air and water probably the most abundant sybstance on the planet. These guys are packaging it and selling it for $15-$20 a...

PC7424. I saw it being sold somewhere else for $199 (same package, no extras).

http://store.yahoo.com/rodi/pros12vcorbu.html That store seems to have pretty crappy stuff but my dad got me a bunch of cleaning accessories for the car as a gift (new car). This buffer seems to be the large ticket item.
