Heya, While its on my mind, I have NXT 2.0 sitting on a car right now about to take it off. I was curious what the proper amount actually was. I know too much doesn't hurt just makes removal harder, but I seem to have better results putting it on a little bit thicker than going with the...

Hey guys, I am about to apply DWG in the next 30minutes or so. I've read every thread on it on this forum. It is a product I don't want to waste, but I don't want to not get the full effects from fear of 'wasting it' -- So I will use what I use :) Anyhow,.. My question. It says to 'work...

Hey guys, and ladies.. I found a good household concoction, I believe, to remove those LSP's in the rare occaision you have a reasonable LSP on the car that isn't more than 2 weeks old, and you want to try out a new glaze, or new LSP for that matter. Sure claying or polishing will get it...

Hrmm -- What happened to the thread about the Cats terrorizing the hood of a fellow autopian? -- It seems to have just dissapeared? :nixweiss

My Lexus has had these water spots on all the windows but especially the sunroof for a while now, and they simply won't come off no matter what you do. I tried windex, alcohol, soap, wax, polishing by hand -- No luck. So I ended up ordering a 2 1/4 Backing plate and 4 inch pads for my UDM...

Well I got my Leatherique Kit in today, cost about 60$ when all is said and done. Overpriced, but its the best supposedly. It comes with a small scrub brush, wooden, semi tout brissles. A bottle of Leatherique Rejuvenator Oil (Stuff that does the work),.. and then some Leatherique Cleaner...

I am racking up on Tire formula's.. None to my satisfaction. Anything from Armorall, to Meguires Gel -- To some aerospace 303 protectant on its way. First,.. will aerospace be a good substitute for a Tire dressing? Or is it too bland and won't last long, nor be very good looking? If it...

Lets take my Sunroof for example. I have cleaned this car numerous times,.. polished it, waxed it, sealed it clayed it, and so on. The glass has gotten Windex, Rain-x, Scratch-x, Amorall glass wipes, water, and they've been waxed and wiped. The previous owner obviously let water stand on...

I know search.. :) -- but maybe some of you can answer a few of these easy questions real quick. 1) Just polished my car, and applied NXT 2.0 -- I want to use DWG on it.. Can I apply it over the NXT 2.0 and get good results? Or do I have to strip off the NXT? 2) If I need to strip the NXT...

I basically need to know what is safe to polish on this car, and what isn't. What dictates trim? If I didn't ask, I would polish all painted surfaces, but when someone mentions 'trim' that includes painted surfaces. So which do I avoid? In the following post, I mention the front bumper...

Going to use my UDM with XMT polish tommorow for the first time. I know it is a lengthy and 'slow' process to work in polish, but does it typically take this long to break down polish? Meg #83 was used here. YouTube - Meguiar's Dual Action Cleaner Polish Just curious as to what to...

Heya,.. I have a Lexus LS 400 -- and I am having a tough time figuring out how to clean, rid the Wood grain *of scratches (clear scratches), especially surrounding the shifter gate of its scratches. Almost like there is a clear coat or plate over it.. but its built into the panel. Be...

While I have my front wheels off, and its jacked up (Doing some work on the car this weekend so its open). I might as well paint the wheel wells black to give them a better look. I figure I clean them off really well with a somewhat abrasive brush. Dry well. Then tape off the edges of car...

*Edit: Came out better than I thought, turns out after discount and maybe an error? Not sure,.. the price ended up being 181$ including shipping. :spot Here is a crude picture of it right out of the box, wrappers on alot of stuff.. like christmas ;) Ok, as many of you know I've been...

Hey guys, I was looking around for a coupon code for March, and all seemed to be from Christmas jan, feb. Couldn't find one for march. I kept digging and found one that gives 10% off. Which is substantial when you are talking hundreds of dollars imo. Still better than nothing on small...

Ok -- I've decided on the UDM. There is one on auto-geek for 129$, and one on autopia (refurb) for $99. Here are the links: (Autopia UDM) Refurbished Car Polisher & Auto Buffer - The Ultimate Detailing Machine (AutoGeek UDM) The Ultimate Detailing Machine dual action polisher...

Well I've made up my mind I am going to bite the bullet and buy a DA this weekend. I keep tossing around should I get a Porter Cable 7424, or a UDM .. The flex seems too high priced for my budget. I think the bottom line they will both do the job for me . So given that I'm flexible on...

I've been searching, and just don't know if this type of product truly exists. I used to think it did,.. but now I doubt it. Anyhow -- I know polishing will remove light swirls, and light scratches. Scratch-X and similar products will remove similar marks. But what about the fresh...

Hey guys/ladies.. I am in a bit of a quandry.. I'm vexxed, terribly vexxed.. :p No really, I am trying to decide which rotary or orbital device to purchase. I've gone to a hardware store and held a makita standard rotary (sander/polisher) and a Porter cable. The Porter Cable was...

Heya,.. I claybarred and waxed my LS 400 with NXT 1.0 (paste in the can) about two weeks ago. I was very pleased, but heard so much about NXT 2.0, I decided I would give it a go. Today I washed the car, (didn't clay bar because it was obviously not needed).. and proceeded to use ample...
