    Hood rock chips have rust. How to deal with this?

    So my daily is a 2021 Honda Civic I bought in October and the hood has a rock chip or two. Unfortunately they also have rust in the exposed metal. How do you go about treating or filling this in without messing with the surrounding paintwork? My overall goal is just to stop the rust, not a...

    Failed PPF has mold under it. Contacted a shop. Need removal advice.

    I have a 2011 CTS V that I bought that already had PPF on the front clip of unknown brand and age but assuming its when the original owner did all the engine work on the car, is likely about 5 years old. Well last summer I started getting a LOT of spots towards the bottom of the film that I...

    Paint marker residue on windshield will not come up.

    So I bought a salvage title 2021 Honda Civic thats been completely restored and while the actual salvage yard marker pen markings are gone, there is still a 'shadow' of where they once were. None of the techniques Ive read about have worked. Ive tried Invisible Glass and pure rubbing alcohol but...

    Unknown stains on PPF refuse to come out. Seem to be embedded in or under the film.

    I'm assuming it has been atleast 3 years and it was done out of state. I was hoping it wasn't something like mold but I didn't even think something like that was possible.

    Unknown stains on PPF refuse to come out. Seem to be embedded in or under the film.

    I have a 2011 CTSV that the previous owner had ceramic coated and had PPF put on the front of the car. The ceramic coating has likely worn off at this point though. However my problem is anywhere there is PPF, the car looks diseased. I live in SC and with how hot and humid it is here, I...

    CTS V is ceramic coated. Wondering if the Gtechniq C2 spray I have is safe for maintaining it?

    So I bought a silver 2011 CTS V about 4 months ago that according to the previous owner and the sticker in the doorseal was cermamic coated using products from Servfaces. Unfortunately it doesn't list any details on the shop just a sticker of the product. My question is the previous owner also...

    3M Headlight restoration compound?

    So I bought 3M's headlight restoration kit for use with a drill and it produced excellent results. Unfortunately they only give you enough compound to do one set of headlights. The compound is 39005 and seems to be the consistency of Meguires 205. Does anyone know the closest thing to what they...

    What is your go-to wash mitt?

    This thread is the best place to ask as any. Ive been looking at getting a 2nd wash mit on Amazon. I already have 1 of the Chemical Guys wash mits. Is there really an appreciable difference in microfiber mits like the CG ones or the one linked above and some of the ones available at say Walmart?

    Which CG soap?

    How do I purchase from Autogeek through Amazon? I can find items they list searching their name but the soap I am after refuses to come up. And I can't find a way to search solely for Autogeek as the seller.

    Which CG soap?

    I figured there would be a rule for that and can delete the link I just wanted confirmation so I could get the product by the weekend. I'm going to end up going with Honeydew if I can't confirm that the soap I linked is the same as the one on this forum. Its only the transit time keeping me from...

    Hello from SC!

    Hello! After buying a car thats worth sinking the time into, I've decided to start learning. I've watched Junkman's series of videos and have started accumulating some of the tools to take my cars shine beyond the swirl infested finish you see from the average weekend washer. Anyone in the...

    Which CG soap?
