    Preserving "New" exterior Trim

    Careful with CarPro DLUX. They do not recommend it on brand new trim.

    New P&S Absolute

    If anyone tries it, and has used D114, I’d be curious to hear your thoughts.

    That is genius! Never even thought of it. Thanks!

    Risk question for the pros

    I've been in this world on my own vehicles for a couple decades. As I get more knowledge, I am curious about one thing. How do you manage risk? By risk, I mean the risk of damaging a customer's paint, or blowing through their clear coat. To someone who doesn't do it every day, it seems like...

    Need some advice on topping (or not) P&S Legend

    Isn't that what we're all doing here? :D How often should one use a topper?

    Need some advice on topping (or not) P&S Legend

    So it's really kind of a decision point whether to keep something on it like BM, and accept the slight degradation in performance, or keep the coating bare, and top it annually after a decon. Since I have two cars in the same situation, maybe I'll try out both strategies this year and see how it...

    Need some advice on topping (or not) P&S Legend

    All: Just coated a couple new vehicles with P&S Legend. I think the coating itself is brilliant, and certainly the best I have used. I did as directed and sprayed Bead Maker after each wash as a drying aid. After a couple months, I did a Reset wash, and noticed the coating itself has...

    Will CarPro Reset remove Sonax Polymer Net Shield?

    Every time I see that pic of your Z06, I feel like it should be marked NSFW.

    Will CarPro Reset remove Sonax Polymer Net Shield?

    Yea. I waited for a good day to apply to these freshly painted panels after they cured, but it never came. I got a bit paranoid when I saw temps in the teens, so the first 40 degree day I saw, I threw PNS on just so I didn't go through winter with nothing on. I didn't bother polishing, just...

    Will CarPro Reset remove Sonax Polymer Net Shield?

    All: I ran out of nice weather, and was unable to finish coating my vehicle before it got too cold. I used Sonax PNS for a section, just to get some protection on, despite the cold. That said, I usually wash periodically with CarPro Reset, but I was curious if this would take off the Sonax...

    Rinseless Wash BETA Testers Needed

    Currently coated with WG Uber, and testing Uber Rinseless, D114, and IUDJ. I'd be glad to add another to the mix.

    now I know why Griots named their drying towel PFM.

    Well, I'm doing a rinseless wash. So I'd rather have a bit smaller towel bc I don't need all the surface area. The thing gets heavy. I am positive it would completely dry both the wife's van, and my SUV. She didn't get a wash today. ;-) I did see the 16 x 16, but I didn't notice it being...

    now I know why Griots named their drying towel PFM.

    Not really a review, but I felt I had to share. I was feeling quite guilty for dropping $76 on two towels. But I used the PFM drying towel today for the first time. And now I know what the PFM stands for. Pure F$&%#* Magic. I am astonished how well this works. It's as if it defies the laws of...

    Using the Big Red Sponge for a rinseless wash. . Need some tips.

    I tried mine again today too. I think the key is to follow behind with a soaked, but wrung out MF to get the dirty liquid. Then a dry, and there's no dirt on the towel. Still worthwhile, if I don't have to wash 8 MF's each time.

    Using the Big Red Sponge for a rinseless wash. . Need some tips.

    I've been rinseless washing with lots of microfiber towels, and it's working well. After seeing more on the Big Red Sponge recently, I ordered one during the sale last week. Tried it for the first time tonight. It seems to work well, and I think it's probably more gentle than a microfiber towel...
