Which brand is forbidden to be spoken around you?

I'll never buy or let any detailer use Armor All on my car. I do 90% of my own detailing these days, but, occasionally I'm just lazy/tired/busy...
3M is too much of a gamble for me
Turtle Wax..... naaaaa.... not gonna' happen

My only real disdain is Armor All tho..... BTW, what is FW1?

FW1 is a "cleaning wax with carnauba". It can apparently clean the vehicle and wax it at the same time, kinda like a waterless with wax but it comes in an aerosol can. Worst thing in the world imo.

Let's just say...If you know someone you hate, that owns a black car, give this to them as a gift and run like hell.:bolt:

LOL..okay i'll take that answer..

Reason i asked is because back when i had my black color Genesis i used the black spray detailer and it really made my car shine and a spray filled a lot of small imperfections, kind of like a glaze i guess. This was back in early 2011 i believe. I haven't used any TW products since.

Actually, the TW black colored QD is not too bad for "filling" (hiding) imperfections and adding shine on a black vehicle...but it is VERY temporary and the only part of the kit, IMHO that is worth a hoot.

Indeed, had to reapply after every wash.

After selling my black car i actually used it for my black rubber mats in the car, made them black-er. lol
 
Autoglym polish - it reminds me of turtle wax from the early 80's lots of powder residue!

A nightmare on black or dark cars!

Thank you brother in law for buying me rubbish polish for Christmas as you are getting it back
 
one company i don't care for is production car care products (his representation the main reason). this guy slams meguiars and doesn't even do equivalent testing on similiar products side by side in most all his videos...

The only comparison I saw in that video was the his product streaks like crazy and the meguiars product buffed off very easily.
 
1. Armor All

That dude is going to need that shield if he goes near my car.


2. Any detailing product with a picture of a race car guy's face on it.

3. Any detailing product that comes in a container that looks like it came off Zsa Zsa Gabor's night stand

Now that's funny! :urtheman:
 
Does it have to be a car product brand? Because I really don't like Samsung and really really hate McDonalds.

Never heard of them before, so I went to look at their site. Terrible. I wouldn't buy their products just because of that. I also found some videos of theirs on YouTube, which all look to be 20 years old...kinda like their site.

Samsung? I love my led samsung tv but hate their phones.
Their TVs have some of the best picture quality I've ever seen.

:iagree: about the TV. I bought a LED recently and the Samsung was far and away the best picture out of all of them. And trust me, I looked at all of them.

I don't have any experience with their phones, but I've heard good things. I'm just too deep into the Apple ecosystem to try something new, unless the new iPhone is terrible and the Galaxy phones are far and away much better, I don't see myself changing anytime soon.

Yeah, I don't like some of their business tactics, its not so much their products, I know people love them.

I am in the Apple ecosystem too, I enjoy their products.

Personally I own a Sony LCD, and a Sharp Aquos(older flat lcd). They have been great TV's. I shop at Costco, they have a huge Sony been calling my name for a while now. I am in the market, what were some of the other TV's you looked at?
