    New Garage: Whats the best floor color for detailing?

    I was thinking white or a tan. Gray just seems to suck up light.

    New Garage: Whats the best floor color for detailing?

    So I finally have been able to get the new garage. They just put up the shell yesterday. Lot's of things to come. Last night I started looking at floor sealers/paint/coatings. One question came up.. What color? I am not looking for it to be a show garage but a functional shop. With that said...

    Tips for working in warm/hot weather or direct sunlight

    Great write up Mike, Thanks. I have been putting what you taught and what I have learned here to good use, but this heat in Central Florida is killing me. Product dries way to fast and act's differently. I look forward to the day I can build the garage and wash bay.

    2 Basic Maintenance Wash Questions

    I tend to add a little ONR to my wash bucket and it helps add the lubrication you need (squeeks) as well as will aid in drying at the end. A cap full or two will make a huge difference. Drying with a QD or Aquawax and a Guzzler towel. Once you have a good base coat of wax, the ONR will make it...

    You will be fine as everyone said. If your concerned give it an extra day before you roll them down. Also as for the cleaner, nothing with Ammonia in it.

    Best odor neutralizer?

    I have tried many things to get rid of the wet dog smell from two huskys in my back seat (dogs, not dates) and recently tried Duragloss Absorb-It Odor Eliminator #371 . I will tell you it has knocked out the odor and remained. It truly has eliminated the wet dog smell.

    Pinnacle black label paint sealant

    No reason to waste your wax. You'll love the finish, but the sealant takes getting used too. Do it, leave it, love it. Very low maintenance and the wax will not really add anything to the experience. If you want to pick up the booster for added shine. Make sure you prep it correctly, and the PBL...

    PBL and Aquawax 951, strange situation

    I agree, no reason to use the Wax. Saturday I am going to try an experiment and see what happens if I apply it over another panel coated.

    PBL and Aquawax 951, strange situation

    Honestly It was not my goal. He thought he was doing the right thing and used the way instead of the QD. It was just a really weird situation. I might do a test this weekend on my car and see what happens. Could it be a bad interaction between the products?

    PBL and Aquawax 951, strange situation

    About 3 weeks ago we cleaned and polished my son's jeep. We finished it with PBL Diamond Coating. This past weekend I was away, my son washed the jeep and then grabs a bottle of 951 to use as a QD. Last night he comes to me and says, the finish feels rough. I went out and took a look and it did...

    When you say it wouldn't come off, what did you try? Was it there before you cleaned and waxed?
