    Aquapel

    Yes. Alcohol evaporates. Just make sure you IPA the whole windshield and get all the grime off.

    Aquapel

    Aquapel works very well for me. Better and longer lasting than OCW, which I tried first. Any window cleaner will do, as long as it doesn't leave behind a film of anything. The windshield must be as clean as possible before application.

    Headlight Restoration-new UV sealant idea

    I see no reason why it wouldn't be worth it.

    Looking for a new Quick Detailer.

    I like #521, Duragloss Marine / RV Detail Spray. Removes dust, minor soil, oil film and water lines without removing the protective polish. It's like QD on steroids.

    Are my windows messed up??

    If it is sap, rubbing alcohol will remove it. Let the alcohol soak on the sap for a minute, using a cloth, then wipe clean. Exterior only.

    masking front end....

    Walmart has, (or had last year), a net you put over your front to catch the bugs, with an s-hook (plastic) to secure it by your front wheel wells. Just remember to put something under the s-hooks to prevent friction scratches under the plastic hooks. I think I paid $4.00 for it. Drove from...

    Wax removal from plastic ........?

    Use some APC and a toothbrush. The old wax will come off. After removing the old wax, that's the time to put a protectant on it.

    Anybody got an EZ up or similar tent?

    I have 3 canopies, all made by Shade-Tech, (I think the models are Quik Shade) similar to EZ Up but less expensive. I needed help putting it up in the beginning, then I sprayed the legs with silicone spray and can now set them up by myself easily. Some of the 10x10's have slanted legs, those...

    ez detail brush and butterstick wheel tool

    I've used that AZ brush, and it lasted about 9-10 washes before the wire broke. I guess breaking a $6 brush is better than breaking a $30 brush. 5 brushes at $6 = $30 = 45 washes. 5 brushes at $25 = $125 = 30 washes. I'll take door #1, Monty.

    Quick Review : Ultima Paint Protectant

    My experience with UPGP: 1) It takes practice to use the right amount because it's hard to believe so little can cover so much. It streaks if you use too much, but that will calm down when you learn to trust the product. 2) You need at least two coats to ensure full coverage because its really...
