    Product Test

    I hand applied Collinite SuperDouble coat was to an ambulance at work as a test in May 2015. The trucks get washed at least once a day. Cheap brushes and car soap are used and one bucket. So far it is holding up well. Also took a video which also shows Pinnacle Black window coating which is...

    Using 0000 steel wool on windshield

    I have used the Nano-Skin 6inch on my DA on the windows and it works really well. I have also had great results with the Mr. Clean Erasers with no scratches. I think the fastest and easiest way that I have deep cleaned, not corrected, windows was with the use of the Meg's headlight restoration...

    Help - I screwed up!

    After looking at pictures of holograms here: http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/ask-expert-featuring-mike-phillips/86156-one-step-hologram-removal-done.html The marks on your car do not look like holograms to me, but I could be wrong. To me it looks like scratches which aren't the same thing...

    1 step vs 2 step, is there any easy way to tell what is needed for my car?

    I also do not have a garage as I live in an apartment. I use the 6 inch Harbor Freight DA with a 5 inch backing plate with good results for a hobbyist with a limited budget. I used the Pinnacle XMT 360 AIO on my mother-in-laws car which has only ever been waxed before me and a friends car that...

    Stainless Steel Exhaust Polish ?

    I have an aftermarket stainless steel exhaust and was wondering what I should use to polish the exhaust. By the way I am looking to polish the exhaust/mufflers and anything that can be seen from the rear of the car to include the tips. My concern is polishing with a metal polish would "burn"...

    Matte finish detailing

    I thought there would be more to it than wash, prep, and coat.

    Matte finish detailing

    I have a friend/co-worker who has a hot rod he built that has a matte black paint job which he covered in a matte clear coat. He was asking me questions about detailing it after he saw how my car looked after I detailed mine. My car is not matte, but since he knows I'm into detailing he...

    Aqualpel, not worth the hype

    To prep my windows for Aquapel I first washed the windows with Invisible Glass, went over them with the Nanoskin Autoscrub Fine foam pad, deep cleaned with Rain-X X-treme Clean and rinsed then used IPO wipe down. After all of this I applied my Aquapel as per the instructions. I should note...

    Aqualpel, not worth the hype

    I have had Aquapel on my and my wife's car for about 3-4 months now and it is still working. I have had no issues on either car since application, which was very easy. One thing I really like is that it is a lot easier to clean off the ice/snow with the Aquapel. I have some Flyby30 on the way...

    Leather restoration question

    I will post a picture later this morning.

    Leather restoration question

    The area that is affected is the left side bolster on the driver side. The seats are Katskinz leather seat covers. They were applied by the dealership when I bought the car and they are out of warranty by a few years. I can't really complain since the car is a 2007.
