A friend of mine has a 2011 ford f-150 he would like to have me detail.It has a dealer added spray on paint shield of some type.I have never worked on a car with this.How does this effect cleaning waxing etc.He has done nothing to the truck for a year,washed one or two times.Feed back please
I'm almost sorry I started this ! Mostly because I did not make myself clear.First I would like to thank those involved for the info.Buffing pads it is.Actually what I tried was putting a red pad on the buffer,took a large micro fiber towel & folded it a few times and placed it on the car. I...
Recently purchased the Griot 6" random orbital buffer. I would like to get some 61/2" buffer pads.Do they really improve the shine as opposed to lots of work with a micro towel? I put a micro towel over a pad & used it to buff out wax.It didn't seem to do much.Or are there other options ?Feed...
Practice,practice ! I cut way back on the application & used the spray on.It really helped. The wolfgang fuzion would be great If I win the Lottery :laughing:.
Thanks for the info.
Feed back pleaseRecently purchased new Griot buffer that included best of show wax.I have tried different applications.Including hand application.It seems really hard to wipe off.I let it sit for over an hour before wiping off.I do this in garage & paint is cold.I could do it outside,because we...
Just wanted to thank those who replied to my question.I really appreciate everyones input.Honestly,I do not know anyone personally who is into this as I am.It is becoming a great hobby also.Over the past few months I have gotten a lot of valuable info on this blog. Thanks again to all:cruisin: Tom
Feed back pleaseBefore I spend the money.I would like to get some info.I'm retired,so I don't spend if I don't need to.I want to get some swirl remover ,polish etc & go the whole 9 yards with my car.I have a small random orbiter buffer that has one speed.4000 rpm.Will this suffice ? Somehow I...
My 2007 Avalon has come a long way since I purchased it in June of 2010.Thanks to the products & advise here at auto geek.I am learning as I go.I have all these little pin hole type stone chips on the front end.Not the hood.just below that along the whole front of the car.some were touched up...

As much as I would like to heat the garage.I think I'll save my funds for the worfgang products & hold out till spring.Ive got a small heater that keeps it around 40 degrees when it is 20 outside.When I really need to get the salt off it gets the job done.It wouldn't be much fun to try & do a...
WOW!!! Thanks for the info.I have been leaning towards the wolfgang products.Thanks especially for the pad & plate info.I was concerned about getting the proper equipment.There is so much to learn.:urtheman:
the swirls & scratches look to me like normal effects you would get from your standard car wash.Nothing really bad.I suppose a normal person would not even be bothered.I just feel it can really be improved to the way it was originally.The car had no wax on it when I got it june of 10.The brake...
Feed back pleasebeen doing my homework & have a good idea of direction.I know the best way to decide is get input.OK,I have this 2007 toyota avalon.Looks great,but close up swirls & scratches.I'm dying to get after this!!!!! I can't decide on the products to use.This is first time I will be...
