Welcome from Grand Rapids!

Same here, I use the different colors for different portions of the car. But mine too had come apart and hardly last a few washes.

Yup, on the shelf by the drivers side rear wheel

It is poured in limited batches, so there could be slight differences. I think a lot of it has to do with the applicator and paint surface.

915 is a great product. My first time using Collinite, I let it dry, and that was a big mistake. I learned that there is a huge difference between hazing and drying. Since then it's become very easy to use with the thinner is better technique [also applying 476 with a damp applicator helps].

Looks like it works well on tires too?

I would try a very light cleaner wax/polish. I get the same spots and poli-seal, hd-speed, or any other AIO/light polish or cleaner works well.

On the inside of some tips, to add extra cut, I used 0000 steel wool with the polishing soap. Otherwise I do love to use it, but I always rinse it and after it dries, wipe it down with a QD or metal wax again.

No problem! And cleaning the HT pads is quite easy too. A pad that has been primed properly and used on a panel can be cleaned by placing it against a MF towel and turning it on to remove excess polish, by using a stiff brush [one that works on foam, not the harsher ones for MF pads], and by...

Thank you, some of the issue may be from redepositing and not extracting the stain sufficiently. Regardless of the technique, I can still see the stain while the cleaner is working. Maybe I should have uploaded some pictures.... that usually helps, haha.

I started polishing paint when the HT pads first came out and I used those because of the good reviews and simplicity. Now that the thinner pads are out, that makes them an even better option. I have used those, CCS pads, and the MF pads, so that is all I have to compare them too. I used the...

Yeah, I think I'll do that. I used the wet/dry vac for the carpets, I just didn't want to be too aggressive with the seats. I've used the wet/dry vac for extraction purposes on a ton of details, but I was hoping there was/is a secret to cleaning those darn seats. :xyxthumbs:

Fantastic job! The perfect description of paint after using the DP paint prep is squeaky clean. Definitely a great product. How long did you allow the paint prep to sit before removing it?

I did that with all of the aforementioned products. Agitation with a cloth, and several brushes. Since I don't have an extractor, I may have to use more water. It just sucks because the material isn't porous enough to allow water to lift the stain and be easily removed.

Hey guys, just a quick question I'd like to throw out while I'm in the middle of a detail. I am doing an interior detail on a 2007 GMC Sierra and have run into a small problem. I removed the seats, cleaned the carpet and under the carpet, behind the plastic trim, the whole 9 yards, but the...
