    Is wheel wax/protection really worth it?

    I totally think that protection on wheels is important. The sacrificial barrier concept makes total since to me. When I bought my last car, I used XMT 360 on the wheels. Later I found come Liquid Glass that I had laying around, clayed the wheels, XMT 360'd again followed by Liquid Glass. Totally...

    Paint Hardness Spreadsheet

    Wow! Thanks so much for this. It really helps. I know others may have mentioned it, but what do you think about a comments column for anomalies or exceptions to the generally accepted findings? ie. BMW has generally hard paint expect for their Black which tends to be softer? What do you think?

    Why I will never pay more than $20 for a wax!

    It actually rained today here and the water beaded really. I didn't get any pics but it really did a fine job. Of course it's a vary new application so it should bead well right? I'm not gonna leave it on long enough to see how durable it is. I liked the Nattys Red so much on my white car I'm...

    Natty's Red on my Alpine White BMW 650i

    Thank you. I realized that some of these companies make some really great products. And if I use them properly things start to look really good.

    Why I will never pay more than $20 for a wax!

    I didn't use a paint thickness gauge. So I guess I was flying blind. I really just wanted to lower the peaks on the orange peel so I went slow. Very slow. I was quite nervous but i went ahead anyway. When I saw that the peaks were knocked down enough, I stopped and went to compounding. It wasn't...

    Liquid Glass on my wheels

    Thanks for the advice. Won't the heat from the pads mess with the sealant? Also what about caliper paint? Maybe a clear coat in top?

    Liquid Glass on my wheels

    When I bought the car, I thought, "those wheels look like they have a clear coat on them" So I figured I would treat them like any other clear coat I work on. So I clayed them . . . It was amazing how much junk came off of those wheels. Then I followed with XMT 360 on all of them. I like the...

    Natty's Red on my Alpine White BMW 650i

    This is just my thoughts on the Poorboys Natty's Red. Not deep,or detailed, but I was impressed enough to share it with you guys. It's on a alpine white 650 BMW. I ordered the Nattys earlier this week and went ahead and prepped the car in eager anticipation. I started with Chemical Guys Citrus...
