Bill, I will definitely perform the baggie test to check. Where can I find info on the Valugard process? I googled it and watched a video. If I'm looking into a decon spray/soap, what do you recommend? Carpro ironx soap and spray?

That's what I was thinking as well. I may check the condition of the paint with the ziploc bag test, however, I find it redundant to clay now and clay later. However, I'll check it anyway, and if it needs to be clayed, that is fine, but I just will save polishing for the spring. no point in...

Desertnate, thanks for hitting some good points. Do you think I'll need to clay if I did a clay not even 6 mos ago? Yes, protection is my agenda too esp in NE region. I don't want to clay and then have to polish. However, I could always clay and save the polishing for Spring...

That is what I am thinking, however, if I use a recommended Iron decon spray and any possible tar remover, will that take care of the contaminants (if there are any)? I clayed in the Summer before my laydown of LSPs. I do have a polisher, but I am trying not to polish if necessary considering...

Thanks for the input! I have some Griot's Boss Finishing Sealant. I have my Griot's Garage DA with boss backing plate and appropriate pads. Just not sure if it's necessary to polish before winter if I'll end up polishing in the Spring, opinion?

Mike, thanks for your reply. What strip wash do you recommend? I have some chemical guys, but I don't think it does that well. I clayed it a few months ago and haven't driven much, do you think I'll need to clay again? Griot's garage glass sealant will def be reapplied

Hey everyone, hope you're all remaining safe with the current events going on. I was just wondering what everyone in the colder-climates are doing for winter prep? I usually apply a sealant and apply some spray sealant every few washes when it warms up here in New Jersey. My question is, if I...

Good job man! Beautiful car and color too! I also see you got a fleet of BMWs and I am also from jersey too! Cheers

Replying rather late to this but: It is all in the prep. I do a two step with fast correcting cream followed by perfecting cream. I then use the griots garage finishing sealant and top it with either s100 or beadmaker. It will really just POP. I have a 05' Yukon XL in sport red. Beautiful car...

Rock on! that 997.1 is probably my favorite generation of the 911 model. Oh and that Cadillac looks amazing, that flake was INCREDIBLE. Great work

Mike, If you could send me a copy to [email protected] that would be great. Thank you! -Scott Bilotta B&B Auto Detailing- Middletown, NJ

Some of the cleaner waxes have been known to get rid of spray paint off panels if they were vandalized. I would look into it more though

I use the Griot's FCC and then their Perfecting cream with matching pads. If you're looking to polish whole car after spot treating some scratches you may be better off with HD speed because it's an AIO (All-In-One). Up to you, but only compound and polishing will get the paint close to...

Great work, I always love seeing the cars you do, always extraordinary work with amazing cars! great post

That's a sweet car and a sweet job! Kudos!
