    DP Cleanse-All Exterior Cleaner

    Primarily I used it for household purposes. But for detailing, it was the best tire and wheel-well cleaner I ever used.

    DP Cleanse-All Exterior Cleaner

    I've been away from detailing for a while so I haven't been here in a while. I see the company's under new ownership and some products have changed. Anyhow, there was a great cleaner called DP Cleanse-All Exterior Cleaner. Anyhow, I'm not seeing that any longer but I am seeing something called...

    Alternative to Brinkmann Swirl Finder Light?

    I can't seem to find this anywhere anymore so I need a recommendation for some alternatives. I bought the light from Flex from Autogeek a little while back and I think it's okay, but I don't like it as much as I liked the Brinkmann. Which flashlight do you guys use to find swirls?

    Most durable finishing wax?

    Where I live the water is quite hard so I really never get through a car wash without water spots. I'm looking for a way to be a bit lazy. After I finish drying the car I'd like to start using a finishing wax with a DA so that I can put protection on the car and remove water spots at the same...

    How long do polishing compounds last?

    Hello, it's been a little while since my last post. Anyhow, I have some Meguiar's Ultimate Compound, M105, M205, and Menzerna PO85RD that are a few years old. Do these products last or do they tend to go bad? I've been out of the game for a while and have a potential opportunity to do some paint...

    Headlight Restoration-new UV sealant idea

    Probably a dumb question, but I've never restored headlights nor have I used urethane, but I'm just wondering why is it necessary to mix the urethane with the mineral spirits? To thin it out?

    Dried Cement on Paint

    I'll get to it in a couple of weeks but I will post when done. I thought the same thing myself when I first read the sugar-water trick. Lol.

    Dried Cement on Paint

    I assume this is safe on the paint?

    Dried Cement on Paint

    Since what I showed in the picture is all there is I guess I wouldn't need to use 4 pounds necessarily, but rather just mix enough sugar and water to form a paste, correct? I then assume that I just put the sugar-paste solution onto the cement and let it sit? How long did it take?

    Dried Cement on Paint

    White sugar and water...really? Wow, never heard that one before. How much sugar and water did you mix? How did you apply it? Did you let it soak? How long till it dissolved?

    Waterless wash

    I really liked the old DP Waterless Wash, but now I use Poorboy's Spray and Wipe.

    Dried Cement on Paint

    My first post in a long, long time. Anyhow, I was detailing my girlfriend's 2012 Honda CR-V and I came across what looks like dried cement on her paint. I tried like hell to get it off but to no avail. First I started off with DP Cleanse-All (undiluted) and then used Tar-X because at first I had...

    Looking for a specific how-to wet sand thread

    Hi guys, it's been a long while since I've been here so please bear with me. There used to be a thread out there in the forum that talked about how to wet stand. I can't remember if the article had a video or pictures, but I remember one of the things I picked up from this thread was to put a...
