    Few ?s after a detailing yesterday

    I usually wash my car once a week, so I was thinking if I can just wait until Friday I can wash it and then put some meguiars UQW on it with a Microfiber and hopefully that fixes it

    Few ?s after a detailing yesterday

    One more question -- Tomorrow the forecast calls for Rain - Should I even bother using quik detailer on the car tonight if its going to be a rain storm all day tomorrow?

    Few ?s after a detailing yesterday

    I have a bottle of Meguiars Ultimate Quik Detailer - Your saying I should spray my entire car down with that and wipe it with a Microfiber to fix whatever happened overnight with the wax?

    Few ?s after a detailing yesterday

    Hey Guys just a few questions for you. Im a total n00b and just recently getting into the game - However yesterday I decided to give it a shot at fully detailing my own ride -- Please Keep in mind that I don't have a proper Orbital Polisher so I didn't even bother with paint correction because...

    Incredibly Cheap Finds

    I picked up some purple power and put it in a Walmart like 80 cent spray bottle and the thing didn't even last 2 minutes before it broke. Either the bottles cheap or purple power totally destroyed the thing, or both lol Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

    Incredibly Cheap Finds

    I enjoy a good deal as much as the next guy but I can't wrap my head around people who pay 10 dollars for a 5 gallon bucket when you can go to Home Depot and get a homer one for 2 dollars that still fits a grit guard. I see no benefit at all and they even sell lids there too if u need one Sent...

    Quick Question on Spray Wax

    Thanks guys - Also as another sidenote Im going to be using the Meguiars Ultimate Liquid Wax as my "Real Wax" that I apply to the car every once in awhile - Ive heard this is Synthetic so in reality its a Paint Sealant and not a true "wax" - However how long does this stuff usually last? Should...

    Quick Question on Spray Wax

    The drying aid part really doesn't bother me, I have no issues drying my car without using any spray products in the first place lol - just looking for something that's going to make it "pop" and shine between real wax applications and after a nice wash

    Incredibly Cheap Finds

    Yeah I suppose im just one of the few that never understood why youd use it -- Honestly im probably a weirdo but detailing my car is like free therapy to me, it relaxes me which is crazy to think about - but I could spend 6 hours on a Saturday afternoon on my car and not even think twice about...

    Incredibly Cheap Finds

    I know that I myself have never really looked into waterless car washes - other then just believing they are a bottle of quick detailer and nothing more -- But I think my main concern with them is this I live in New Hampshire, So the only time I would ever use them is in the winter time when...

    Proper Wheel Care?

    This is a noob question but can you / should you claybar your rims after you do your paint / windows? Mine are Polished Aluminum and then factory clear coated, so they are shiny just curious if claying them will make them even moreso

    Proper Wheel Care?

    Buddy of mine works at a car dealership and he says his RECON guys uses something called "Wheel Acid" that works magic on brake dust and things, but that you need to spray it off ASAP, he was telling me a story one time about how one of the RECON guys sprayed a wheel with the wheel acid and then...

    Proper Wheel Care?

    Thanks DesertNate My wheels are 19s so I find myself going through the standard size squirt bottle of wheel cleaner every 3 washes or so, its insane how fast that stuff disappears - so I was hoping I could find a more economical solution that would work for me, AKA buying S.G in bulk - Someone...
