    Valvoline Headlight Restoration kit

    Ok, I guess nobody has any experience with this kind. I used it today on the headlights of a 2004 Cavalier. The headlights were seriously terrible. I did this all by hand, which this kit was made for. There was more than enough 400 grit sandpaper for the job, definitely could use more than 2...

    Valvoline Headlight Restoration kit

    My dad just gave me a Valvoline Headlight Restoration kit that he got from the Carbrite guys. Has anyone tried it? It seems to be simpler than the other kits, as in not as many different sandpaper grits and polish. All it has is 4 sheets of 400 grit sandpaper, 2 sheets of 1000 grit sandpaper, a...

    Much Difference in clay?

    Oh that is very interesting, Setec! I would think though, there would be some completely different formulations or materials created by other labs/scientists/companies. I guess none of the major ones have "reinvented the wheel?"

    Much Difference in clay?

    I was just wondering- Is there much of a difference with different clays? I use Meguiar's clay, and I like it. I've never tried any other brands of clay though. If some clays are supposed to be about the same aggressiveness, is there much difference other than that? I've also seen some that are...

    Got swirls & finally got pads. Now what?

    Thanks for all the input! That dog eats everything. I had set my pads on the table and was ordering pizza, then was going to clean the pads. I got done, and seen her going at it! I figured I had just enough stuff to make me realize how much I need other stuff.

    Got swirls & finally got pads. Now what?

    So would the Orange pads with a polish or ScratchX remove the swirls, or is the pad too aggressive and create more swirls? What about using polish or ScratchX with a finishing pad like the Blue pads? Is that just silly? Things are pretty tight at the moment, but I did find some LC CCS pads for...

    best pressure washer

    I used to work with a team that cleaned weekly a 40 some semi truck fleet for a furniture factory (plus 40 or so trailers). We always used Honda with a CAT pump. They used those for years before I joined too. They were very reliable, easy to obtain parts for, and not too bad to work on either...

    Got swirls & finally got pads. Now what?

    Hi AG forum! I need some advice on if I can accomplish what I need to, with the products I have. I finally got some pads for my GG6. I got 2 6.5" LC Flat Orange Pads, & did Buy One Get One Free for 1 LC Blue and 1 LC Gray that my dog already ate. So I'm basically down to 2 6.5 Orange and 1...
