Recently, I've posted (HERE)) about using up about 1/3 of a bottle of Klasse Sealant Glaze that's been sitting on my shelf doing nothing, by diluting it to a 10% solution and spraying it on my wheels whenever I clean them. It's working really, really well. Once the wheel is clean, I just mist...

Hi all, Thought I'd share this since I've been doing it for a few weeks now and it it seems to be working really well. I have about 1/2 bottle of Klasse Sealant Glaze that sat on the shelf for ages, since even though it's a a classic, it's ease of use leaves a bit to be desired. Anyway, I...

Just curious what the current hot products are to protect and beautify rubber/soft plastic trim and seals... My standard is Gummi Phledge. Someone on a car forum who happens to be (I believe) a hydrocarbon chemist swears by Krytox, even though it's ridiculously expensive (used to protect...

Ok, a while back I solicited suggestions on a detail spray to try....finally used up my last gallon of 4* UGE. Based on feedback and reading lots of threads, I decided to try FK425. It's been nothing but trouble for me. Paint is BMW Monaco Blue (very dark blue), well prepped, with WolfGang...

Ok, so I had to find a new QD since my last gallon of 4* UGE is almost gone. decided to try FK 425 (partly price, partly wanted to see if the anti-static part is hype or reality)... Anyway, vehicle is a BMW with Monaco Blue paint (really dark blue). The car has been clayed and prepped, and 2...

The subject sums up my question.... I have an almost-full bottle of DACP that, although old, seems to be fine. I haven't needed (or bought) anything more aggressive than it simply because I didn't need it. I may have that need now - in case I do, and need it in a hurry, is the Meguiar's...

Hi all, Been a long while since i've posted here, and my product knowledge is most certainly not current. I'm looking for a QD to use on top of UPP. I used to use the Four Star QD spray (forget what it was called), but don't see it listed. I like the UPP combo when I used it because it gave...

Star Sapphire Pearl Clearcoat paint, the car has over 156,000 miles. 1UZ-FE engine, 260 hp and 270 ft-lbs of torque, top speed 149. I am very happy - last week I had all the dings removed from my car. The drivers side back door had 3 large and one medium dings, in a nice square pattern...

As I posted in a different forum (my bad) I can't get the "go to new post" button to work. But it does accurately show me what threads have new posts since I last visited. I'm logged in. Browser set accept cookies. I put DC as a trusted site in IE. Other forums using this BB software work...

The button to take me to the first unread post in a thread doesn' seem to work for me, except when visiting a thread I've looked at during the same "session (i.e., haven't closed the browser or gone to another site). What am I doing wrong? thanks, Andrew

Anyone seen this locally anywhere lately? I can't find it at AutoZone or the one KMart I looked at here. thanks, Andrew

Our local Meijer's (a big-box store similar to Wal-mart) has Stoners Invisible Glass on sale buy one get one free ($3.99). Both aerosol and spray bottles, same price. I bought 6 spray bottles :) I you have Meijer's in your area (and like/use Stoners), you might want to check it out! Also, I...

Ok, I just got my PC and have been practicing/using it for the last couple weeks, and I need some advice. One of my cars (still) has moderate swirls. Not a LOT of them, but the ones that are there are medium depth but still clearly removable. I have (and have used) Pinnacle SMR and Advanced...

Ok, I'm planning the PC purchase, and have scoped out the multitude of options. Pretty much have it narrowed down to either the Pinnacle package ($170 shipped after DC discount w/ backing plate, 2 orange, 3 white, 2 grey pads) or Coastal Tools ($109) + pads from somewhere. Or maybe the...

Anyone ever used this stuff? "Industrial fallout. Oxidation. Paint overspray. Yikes! The fastest way to remove bonded contamination from painted, chrome-plated or fiberglass surfaces is with clay. And now, you can use it in a convenient foam. Just spray and wipe using the specially...

Ok, don't know if I really have the $$ to get into this, but I'm curious after attending a local Concours event. Obviously, I'm never going to own a vintage Ferrari 275GTB. So what would be a good car for a person to "get their feet wet" with events? Something not too terribly expensive...
