Do I need to apply a wax over Wolfgang sealant?. I sealed my TSX three weeks ago and a seagul crapped on my car the other day and after a half a day it was etched into the paint. I really like the clarity of the Wolfgang, but does it offer no protection from bird sh#t. Any recommendations for a...

If this is correct I would go with the unfinished leather. I was doing the seats in my parents 2004 Avalon and they just kept getting darker. At one time I thought I was removing dirt, but I think it was the leather. They just wouldn't clean.

Yesterday was my first time with the Flex 3401. Going from a PC 7336 I couldn't believe how much less vibration with the Flex and how much easier to handle than the PC. I can't believe it was just the pads. If you can operate a PC then the Flex should be down right simple. There was no arm...

Thought about it overnight, glass cleaner to glass, plastic, rubber, chrome, etc and the tape sticks to everything. Just had to get the FK425 residue off.

Just clayed with Blackfire Poly Clay II. First time I have used it and it took off everything. I lubricated with FK425, but now I can't get the blue painters tape to even come close to sticking to it. I guess I will be polishing the black trim tomorrow.

If I am going from Mezerna 85RD to Wolfgang Super Gloss 3.0 Sealant, do I do an IPA wipedown before the sealant?

In those small places where you can't get the machine into, can jeweling be done by hand? Will you obtain the same result and would it take forever? Any Suggestions? I have only seen videos demonstrating using a machine on a large flat surface, no one getting into the smaller areas.

What is the ideal size for microfiber polish removal cloths or towels? Most everything I see is 16"x16", which seems a little dinky to me. This would be about the size of a shop rag. By the time you fold it twice you are looking at about 7" or 8" square. To remove wax I have always used a...

are needed to remove polish such as Mezerna SIP, Nano, or 85RD for a normal size car? I assume it's not like wax where I can just use one and periodically shake it out. Do you change to a new towel on each section like you do with the pads? Any recommendations on which microfiber towels will...

Those tighter spots would it be quicker to just do them by hand? I also order a pair of Wolfgang Polish and Wax applicators which are orange on one side and black on the other. I can't tell you how helpful the net is on detailing for the novice. There is a wealth of knowledge watching all the...

Just ordered the Flex XC3401 Intro Kit with the free bag along with the Grit Guard pad washer, six pack of 6" Kompressor pads, Menz SIP, SF Nano, 85RD, Wolfgang Sealant, FK 425 and a Daytona wheel brush. I've had the 7336 for 10-15 years. Originally purchased through Griots. It could put down...
