Hi, My new PC says "use 5 inch pad only" on its counter weight, but autopia sells the SFX kit which is supposed to work with the PC 7424 and the backing plate is 6 inches. Will it work? Do I need a different counterweight, or should I shop for a 5 inch velcro backing plate and 5 inch pads...

...when you have a 1-bedroom condo, no garage, and it is snowing outside! Carpet protection was priority #1. While we are talking about wheel detailing, how do I get this baked on brake dust? I scrubbed and scrubbed and scrubbed and got it down to this much, but it doesn't seem to be...

So I was detailing my step mother's silver 2000 323i yesterday to get it ready for winter. This thing was in pretty bad shape, and I was getting frustrated because I couldn't get all of the swrils out with my hand and SSR 2.5. So I'm polishing, and working, and sweating; I get half way through...

Which QD would you all use in conjunction with IW or 885 (476)? Would any carnauba do the trick? mb

I've read a couple of threads that had info on mixing SG with Acrylic spritz to make it more user-friendly. Welp, the spritz is discontinued, so all I have is the Glanz (sonus) but I tried it anyway. I took a small pump-spray bottle and filled it 3/4 of the way with Glanz, then topped it off...

I teach 8th grade English, and detailing came up in today's discussion of anecdotes. I wanted to give them a good example of one, so I screamed out, "NEVER TAKE YOUR CAR TO A CAR-WASH!!!!!" They said, "Why?????" I went on to describe how a car-wash is not entirely different from going to...

Here is my MCS, it has 16,000 un-garaged miles on it. Process: wash (p21s), clay (griots), AIO, SG, SG, Sonus Acrylic Glanz. 303 on black items, stoners on glass. And here is my 1986 325, 200,000 miles, original paint, many many hours spent on this car: I put another coat...

Alrighty, I've been doing some research on collinite, and I'm wondering which of their products would be best for shine and durability. Also, do any of your top your SG with collinite? mb

Howdy, At the moment I've got two coats of SG on my car with one treatment of Sonus Acrylic Glanz. Can I apply another layer of SG without any bonding issues? It is my understanding that the glanz is similar to SG and will layer, but I'd like to make sure. Thanks, mb

Hello! I found this board through my MINI related internet wanderings, and I am so happy to have a constant forum for detailing. I started detailing about ten years ago on my dad's BMW 325. I made mistakes, learned, got frustrated, kept learning, and eventually found my style and comfort...

About a month ago I clayed (griots), used on application of AIO, and put two coats of SG (using the abbreviated process discussed on this site). Today I washed with Sonus conditioning shampoo and applied Sonus Acrylic Glanz. Stoner's on the windows, 303 on everything black except the tires...
