    Hand Polishing 3 Piece Wheels

    I have polished aluminum in the past with wet sanding and there wasn't really any write ups about how to do it. Ill try my hardest to make a detailed walk through with how and what to use to make them shine. When I was younger, I polished a set of wheels from my mk4 Gti. I didn't remove the...

    Bissel Little Green Machine

    I think the hot water helps immensely. I pre treat the area, then just douse the area In hot water. The pro heat will take water from cold to extremely hot. It gets to be a pain to run back and forth to the sink and wait for hot water then go back. Then if you let it sit, it cools down fast!

    Bissel Little Green Machine

    I can assure you my great machine with the pro heat gets the water very hot. Like the carpet steaming hot. I have burnt my hand to many times to count.

    Could DA vibrations be bad for your paint?

    Optimum Car Wash

    I had the ONR but honestly it streaked more than I wanted. I would have to go back and use a quick detailer mixture and a new rag to wipe them off. I swapped to BlackFires No Rinse and don't think I'll ever look back. It's the same concept, but I think it streaks less and has better...

    Carpro PERL -- My Favorite Tire Dressing

    I'm absolutely in love with this product. I use it for tires, trim and Engine plastics. I have yet to use it on leather I think I'll stick to a designated cleaner/conditioner for that. But this is a 1-1 mixture on the trim. It went on so easy. And the customer said its just as nice as the day...

    cleaning the windshield

    Nick told me once that you can clean a window with one towel. And now I see why. It yeilds perfect results 100% of the time. Lightly mist a microfiber towel wipe down the window. Then before it dries, take a separate dry towel and wipe off the cleaning agent. With the waffle weave glass cut...

    Pinnacle GlassWorks water spot removal nightmare.

    I have read some reviews on doing pits in the window. It would take all day. It's best to just get the powder and mist water with it. Don't use a DA. You would deff need a rotary if you wanna make any progress. It would be worth my time, sweat, blood, and tears to buy a new window. You can...

    Menzerna... top notch?

    I was going to get the SF4500 but I wanted a polish with a little more aggressive cut so I can take out very minor swirls/holograms with a MicroFiber Cutting Pad so I went with the SF4000. But I have used the Fg400 2 times and finished with the SF4000, it looks great! If I want a polish with...

    Pinnacle GlassWorks water spot removal nightmare.

    Well great news. I fixed the glass. Nick called me and gave me the run down on the best product that I could use to fix this problem. He suggested CeriGlass by CarPros. And their glass polishing pads. First I tried using the Pinnicale GlassWork and the CarPro Glass Pads. It made the...
