Probably a silly question but I've searched here and couldn't find an answer. I glazed with RMG a week ago and the car has been covered since. We had some storms roll through and my car is under a "car port" so it got some rain on it, but only a small bit on the hood and fender. I was...

Would this work alright? I just picked up some 2180 and used it last night after I clayed and polished the car. Went on and off real easy. I want to fill in a few of the spots I couldn't get out so I'm thinking RMG over this and then topped with pink wax. Anyone used a glaze over 2180? or any...

May sound like a strange question, but I have been using my big blue waffleweaves for a couple years and now in recent months they seem to have lost their absorbing ability. Is this possible? I'm probably going to retire these to tire/wheel duty and purchase a few more

I love the stuff but it seems very "streaky" to me. I have a hard time removing it evenly it seems. The best way I have found was to remove with a microfiber towel first, then I use a microfiber bonnet on the PC to buff it out. My question is, if I spray the bonnet with a little QD first, is...

I ask because I have recently applied RMG to my black car. I haven't had the time to do a carnuba over it yet and unfortunately got stuck in the rain one night. Had to wash the car after that also. Should I reapply the RMG or should it still be alright to throw a carnuba over it now

Ordered two 4" pads and backing plate and some SSR 2.5 from Autogeek a little while ago because it seemed my 6" pads weren't taking out the problems in my clear. I have an orange pad and a yellow pad. Both supposed to be pretty aggressive. Did a search and asked what speed I should use and the...

Do I use these the same way I do my 6" pads or do I use the PC on a slower speed? TIA

Who sells this stuff online? I've been to all the online shops I know of and can only find PI-II. Can anyone help me out?

I am going to use #7 on my black car this weekend to see what it will do, so i did a search on how to use it properly, knowing that it's difficult to use. However, I can't find the thread and it's impossible to just seach for "#7" Can anyone give me a quick tutorial. I have #7 and PC and all...

I have a few spots that I can not get out for the life of me. The clear coat seems far to tough for anything short of a rotary or wetsanding. At any rate, I'm looking for opinions on what you would think was the best filler. I've read a lot about VM on black and that it works awesome...I have...

Curious if I had too much product, such as DACP or SSR2 on a pad would it prevent the cutting ability of said product. Not sure if I used too much or not, but regardless it was still easy to wipe off after buffing out each panel, so I'm thinking I didn't use too much, but am just curious

Started my big detail today...well, while the sun was out had to cut it short and cover the car because of rain. Started with SSR2 and a green pad. Not much happening there. Made a couple more passes, still not much. Decided to step up to DACP and another green pad...better but not much, couple...

Well, later this month I will be detailing the Buick for the first time this year. It's black and has a 1.5 year old paint job on it. Paint is in awesome shape as you can imagine, plus the car is only out in fair weather. Anyway, why i need a full detail is because it sits outside during the...

Please let me know your opinions. Santa is bringing me a PC with the Sonus pads kit from the Autopia store and some DACP. My car cover is pretty rough and will probably err, definitely will make a mess out of my black GN through the winter as it sits outside in "hibernation". I plan on these...

Curious because I tried a small section of my newly waxed (S100) black GN yesterday. Was polished and waxed on Sunday. I didn't see any difference, so I ended up throwing another coat of S100 followed by a QD. Curious if people have put glazes (Megs #7 in particular) over a carnuba and have...

Just curious as to what is so special about them. What do they contain that makes them better than a spray bottle with water? Is there really a difference between the different ones? Which one do you guys prefer. Lately I have used Z7 and the Meguires one. I like both of them but am leaning...

I'm going to be doing a little detailing this weekend and do not have a PC at my disposal, so I will be doing everything by hand. When I go to use a cleaner/polish such as #9 (example) what would I use to apply to get a good "cut?" Thanks

Here's a couple pics of my GN after I spent 13 hours on it at the body shop. The product names I do not know of, but I'll do my best to explain. We wet sanded a few spots that needed it and the used 3M FI-II. After that is where I used products I have no idea what they were called. After...

Is it real important to wait 12+ hours between topping NXT with a carnuba? What will be the problems if I don't? TIA

I just picked up S100 cleaner/polisher and S100 carnuba. I am curious as to how abrasive S100 cleaner is. How does it compare to say: #9, DACP, Finesse It II etc etc Also, if I am going to be applying it by hand (no PC), what should I use to apply it? TIA
