    Finish Kare dropping external distribution

    I was looking for FK 425, couldn`t find it on Amazon, other sites where it has been until recently. I called FK yesterday, spoke with Leda. She said they have discontinued distribution through Amazon, AG et al, they will be selling direct. Their shipping is pricy. Anyone in the NYC area...

    Acrylic products - layering - micro etching?

    Hope you all are enjoying some spring weather, finally having some slightly warm sunny days here in NYC after a cool wet spring. I have some acrylic products, haven`t been using out of concern for "micro etching". Half bottles of original DWG (possibly has cleaners in it as I understand)...

    MIL`s lovely little 1993 Honda Accord

    She got the car in 1994 or 1995, very good condition. Kept in her home garage in State College, PA, up in the mountains, rough winters. For 30+ years she had done a wash and wax once annually on her cars on the Fourth of July (true!). I persuade her to let me take care of the paint, promised her...

    FK 1000P curing and 425 topping

    Hi all. Will be applying the first 1000P layer for winter on Saturday (have used it successfully for years, 2-3 layers gets us through a Northeast/New England winter). Question is about curing time and applying 425 as a topper. Past discussion here seemed to indicate that we want to let 1000P...

    Quick cure acrylic or other sealant needed

    Hi all...I need a fast curing sealant, acrylic or other, for some cars... I do my mother-in-law's car, no garage (she lives in a senior community). My last bottle of Danase Paint Sealant (which has worked well on her 93 Accord) will be gone soon. Wish someone had picked up that formula (anyone...

    Finish Kare - Leda following up - call back

    I just talked with Leda (12 Noon Eastern time). She's leaving messages for us to followup on our orders, says she isn't getting calls back. FYI friends. Hope you all can call and give her the info she needs, she's doing us a favor. I gave her a suggestion on Friday of another company in...

    Finish Kare mystery solved

    Called FK today. Their message said that they are closed for the month of June, reopening July 6. A number is provided for people who have orders outstanding. Unusual in my experience for a business to close for an entire month, but FK doesn't seem to be oriented to their consumer...

    Wax/Sealant on bath tile?

    I've seen posting on this but would like to ask the question directly. Have any of you put car wax or sealant on bath tile? Will it bond? I have a lot of Collinite 476/885, thinking of putting it on the tile.

    Bad batch of Collinite 885

    This summer I bought a can of FleetWax 885 from eBay seller "stephmac". Her seller rep was good and I needed more 476/885 for fall/winter waxing. Pulled it out today to do the winter prep and it's a disaster. I've been using Collinite for a while, know to apply it thin, have done so with...

    1000P over NuFinish? or other?

    Going out to my mother-in-law's this weekend. I need to add more wax/protectant on her 93 Accord. In July I put on a coat of NuFinish (what I had on hand). She lives in central Penna., mountain winter weather ahead. I have 1000P, Collinite 476 and DWG on hand. My plan is/was to put on two coats...

    Honda - removing swirl marks

    O3 Accord, taffeta white paint. Previous owner passed along extensive swirl marks all over the car, not sure how deep but you can easily see them from 6-8 feet away under several coats of Collinite 476 and DWG. Have been over the car with Turtle Wax Polishing Compound, have also used Meguiars...
