Being a huge fan of the now deceased original Wet Glaze formula, I was heartened by the news that David here was offering a new Wet Glaze 2 option. The original was super easy to apply and remove and left a terrific slick and wet look. What I most liked was it be layered with either wax or...

Love the UPGP product, but the sprayer not so much. This is the second one that's gone bad (squirts rather than sprays). Is there a quick fix for this? Otherwise, guess I'll have to contact where I bought it for a replacement? Thanks much in advance.

ready to pull the trigger on a makita 9227 but can't find if the pc backing plate threads work on the the makita as well... thanks in advance.

What is your fav metal polish for trim and exhaust pipes? Stainless steel and chrome. Thanks in advance.

Meghan at Autogeek was kind enough to send me a bottle of the new product (formerly DP 4-1) to test out. Here are the findings compared to my beloved ONR. I am a total rinseless washer and haven't used the hose in over a year. Concentration. Much improved over the former 4-1 chemistry. Only...

I'm a fervent QD'er. Love wiping down almost every day if its light dust. What seems to work best for me is spray directly onto the MF and lightly wipe down the paint. Less streaks, much less product and haven't seen any marring yet from the application. The only time I apply directly to paint...

Bought a nice clean 2005 Infiniti G35 for my son. Everything is great EXCEPT that the dealer had painted a special offer on the windshield with some kind of indelible paint. The dealer "washed" the car before delivery, got the colored portion of the paint off but the outlines of the characters...

Having a metallic silver car, I'm always appreciative of the overcast skies. Silver looks better in those conditions (mimics dawn/dusk periods of the day). IMHO, indirect lighting brings out the best in silver. In addition, the windshield looks crystal clear as there there's no sunlight to...

Having a tough time finding a good wheel well dressing for an 2007 A6. Tried Armor All and even Wolfgang but the wells even after a thorough cleaning still don't have that nice dark appearance (still has that very light, dry look). The material isn't a shiny, smooth plastic but is almost a...

Love keeping the car clean and am especially anal about the windshield. Gotta be crystal clear. But for some reason my windshield gets little aggravating nicks from road debris and its tough keeping them clean of dirt. Usually use something like DG 501 and white or orange pad but the polish...

Need some help using the brush. I like the long reach for inside the rim spokes but every time I pull out the brush, it flicks brake dust all over. Works a little better immersed with car soap but the flicking drives me crazy and covers me in wet brake dust spots. Wondering if there's a...

I have a full bottle of Optimum Polish to trade. Looking for maybe Optimum Leather Protectant, OID Concentrate 32oz, or Poorboys Trim Restore in a swap... Please PM me if interested. Thanks much.

Not sure but stumbled upon this stuff.... Called Wheel Shield and of course makes big claims (as always) but as most in here, always curious for the next magic trick. Love the claim that it protects against brake dust for ONE YEAR! I clean my wheels regularly so I merely have to wipe dust...

Anyone used these puppies? Looks intriguing but not sure about car paint. Gotta love infomercial productions though. Always makes the products a "MUST HAVE!"

Not do something extra to your car after a simple wash and dry? It takes all my willpower not to put something additional on the paint--UPGP, DWG, AW, you name it LSP... Even though the paint looks great, feels slick and is glossy, I always feel compelled to "kick it up a notch." Almost...

It's certainly not as interesting as the love stain thread, but after leaving my car parked next to some bushes, I come back and fine this crust like stuff on my car. Can't see it but feels like someone sprayed the car with cotton candy. No indication of sprinklers. Sometimes happens when I...

Recently, due to diminished supply I diluted my FK425 1-1 with water. Seems to work just fine, still glosses up and very slick but wondering if this is the right thing to do?

does everybody use them that have the capability? on the automatic light preference, the running lights constantly stay on unless its too dark, then it switches to hid. just wondering if always using the running light feature prematurely wears out the lamps... it's amazing what pops in my...

After enduring a basic loaner this week, I couldn't wait to get my ride back. It made me think of must-have options to keep me sane and happy... Bluetooth Nav Upgraded stereo Satellite Leather Tinted windows Power moonroof Nice rims/tires Others are nice but not a deal-breaker to me...

I was sent this site talking about a sealed barn full of ridiculous and expensive (although somewhat dusty) classic cars. Supposedly, the value is $37 million. Manuel Menezes Morais shot the photos, but he was sworn to secrecy about the cars’ location and the owner’s name...
