Thanks for the additional tips, although that got dark quite quickly... Let me rephrase your last few posts as a way of helping to understand this stuff a bit more. This has to do with the 'chemistry' of the ceramic sprays. For any product on the market we can look at the SDS to see chemical...

As with almost all detailing conversation, seems like I have run up against a contradiction. I have read many places, including on the bottle, that a 'damp' MF will help to remove streaks (TWSNS). If anything, I think the amount of water is negligible relative to the amount of product...

Honestly I wasn't expecting much for such a low price. If it could be half as durable as legit coatings that would be fine with me, I would just reapply more often. Our salt is particularly caustic i guess. What have you seen that has worked the best? This year my stock is full, so I think...

Perhaps i've been flagged as a suspicious member... good on your attentive moderation team. Either way, thanks! BTW - I used just under 1/4 of the bottle on two coats on the lexus. I think I will reapply before the winter here, probably just 1 coat to boost. Seems to be good value out of the...

Bump on this thread, since it's the most recent one on these products. This is my experience with both Turtle Wax Seal and Shine (TWSS), and this product (TWHCS), as an amateur working on cars in my family. The TWSS I used on a blue BMW that sits outside. It had been clayed, compounded...

I am in Richmond Hill. How about you? Thanks for the suggestions. I will do another treatment with UC some time in the next month or two, when I have the time. Of course I'll be keeping in mind that clearcoats are thin!

Just wanted to add a bit of an update to this post, as I have ghosted myself. Work became quite busy and with pollen season happening I chose to take a bit of time off of detailing. I did do the whole car with UC, UP, and then ULW. I have been boosting with D156 about once a month. The...

To clarify. In my original post, I assumed a pass would be the whole process of applying product, going back and forth horizontally over the area, and then back and forth vertically over the area, resulting in the depiction above with red AND black arrows. Each pass would have been 2 section...

Found a few threads on this topic and will have a look through them when I get the chance. Should have used the google... Makita PO5000C which pads and product? Made the plunge and got a Makita PO5000C. Makita PO5000C Review Review: Makita PO5000C Orbital Polisher - Gear-driven and Free...

Been in to detailing for a couple years now. Have a dozen or so hours experience with a machine, a few dozen hours with various types of washing, and even more time spent researching and reading especially on AGO. I love that this forum exists and how professionals come together here to debate...

Hi gang, new member and hoping to get some discussion about detailing products and techniques. I've found AGO to be a great resource and now hoping to participate more!
