What's the one-year follow-up on this looking like?

So, helping a friend with his rx8. He has probably the worst spotted windows I've ever seen. To the point you can't see out of them at night. We have tried: Vinegar Green scrubbing pad Bon ami Invisible glass kit 0000 steel wool C4 compound and orange pad on da P4 polish on black pad and da...

Cool. Thanks!

Its not anywhere in their literature. Ive emailed tech support.

You're welcome! Turbomiata.net is the cliffs notes version of grm. Either should be fun times though. And grm should be a fun forum entirely for you to peruse. So many different areas of the hobby. And areas of life represented there. Always something neat going on. Its my Facebook. (I don't...

I do! There's two versions. The grm thread is the full on interactive build thread since the beginning of the build. In 2017.... https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/build-projects-and-project-cars/may-be-little-ridiculous-2018-challenge-oddessey/134260/page1/ There's a few other places i...

So, my miata is currently receiving a repaint. A little touch-up, really.... Id like to coat it as i assemble. Make it easier to maintain over the next 20 years. How long do I wait for the clear to cure? Im spraying in a homemade booth. Can I coat rubber,plastic, suspension, etc? Reson not...

Is there a comparison article for this stuff? About ease and durability? Id also been topping with a pure carnuba meguires gold class after the coating cured. At least on the wifes van and my brother's dakota rt I painted. It seemed like a good idea at the time, but was it?

Care to link the onr? I have chemical guys clean slate here, so I want to see what im missing.

I see those combinations of clay and wash mit. Is that better/easier than the mother's 2.0 ive been using? Im more concerned with how the job turns out and how long products last vs money.

Less so than my history would indicate. I'm selling my 90s street truck, a lowered 95 silverado extended cab, a mazda6 wagon. Recently got rid of a baja turbo and a prius.... Im always amazed at the wide variety of crap that has graced my driveway. Still think my street legal vintage stock car...

Im learning a LOT here. Thank you all for the practical knowledge dump. Is there something different than my current ceramicoat i should be using instead? Because after my truck, I'll be doing my 70 duster (20 year old restoration) and my freshly restored 99 turbo miata. Im willing to buy a...

Ive been using quick detailer and mothers claybar 2.0 (the one that looks like a computer mouse). I hadn't done anything prior to polishing before.

Im in north carolina. Right outside Charlotte. Truck will be in the carport when not being driven. Does this change any reccomendatiins? And I will grab some panel prep. Part of why i did the wash in between was to get all the crap that polishing slings around off and to make sure it's all clean.

Fair enough! When ive done the other cars, ive done a round of washing with dish soap prior to claybar to try and remove everything from the paint. Then another round of dish soap wash after claybar, after polishing. I tried chemical guys clean slate as well, but it didn't seem to work as good...
