    Single Stage Correction Question

    Good stuff as always Mike, Thank you. Good to know about the Iron-X. I will definitely stay away from that especially since the clay should be able to do everything I need it to. I guess you as the detailer and the car owner have to understand expectations based on paint condition. You can only...

    Single Stage Correction Question

    I've polished more clear coat cars than I can count but I've never come across a single stage yet. I might be doing a 73 Vette soon and there is a chance it's single. I understand how to check officially and know not to believe that all panels will be the same... With assuming it's all single...

    Suggested polish for diamond cut wheels

    Hey Mike, Thanks for the link. I guess something happened to my old account (New Detailer 1). I've been here for awhile, I just haven't posted in years! I've still been polishing paint on my weekends since 2010 but haven't had much experience with wheels. Hope all is well!

    Suggested polish for diamond cut wheels

    I just got these wheels for my 73 Mach 1 and I'm looking for something safe to use that I can clean them up with without micro marring them. I don't believe they can be polished out of they get some micro scratches. Is it possible to rub out light scratches on this lip? Again, if so what can I...

    Cquartz --First Time User Feedback

    I'm a fan of that Menzerna combo but I might of missed something? Did you prep the paint with anything after the polish before going to the coating? If so, what?

    Essence extreme gloss...guess I'm the odd one out

    Again, I want to like this product based on all the great reviews but the juice needs to be worth the squeeze. I'll give the suggested techniques a go to see if removal improves. With regards to a firm foam pad I would say the LC hydro force pad in white fits the bill. I just don't want to have...

    Essence extreme gloss...guess I'm the odd one out

    I personally felt that the Menzerna had a little more gloss over the essence. I get that the essence has the added benefit for you if you are going to a ceramic topper. For me personally I'll take the time on the extra step of needing to wipe down the car with some coating prep after Menzerna...

    Essence extreme gloss...guess I'm the odd one out

    So with all the hype surrounding this product I decided to get two bottles while AG was doing their 25% off last week. I've pretty much always use menzerna products along with lake country pads. I also use optimum gloss coat as my go to ceramic coating. I'm not a fan at all of glaze and fillers...

    Pics of my work this summer so far...

    This is a weekend only business for me so here is where I'm at. Instead a of posting a ton of different topics for each car I'll just list my photobucket. Hope this is ok? I can copy and paste all the pics but I figured this was easier. The process used for these cars were all the same. My...

    Lake Country Force Hybrid Foam Pads New & Improved!

    Can anyone report about these who have used the old LC hydro pads? In comparison is the new Grey the old orange? Is the new Orange the old Blue in terms of aggression? Looking for information before I make a big purchase. I use to only use the old hybrid pads and want more info before moving...

    Opti gloss coat issues.

    Looks like I'm going to have to buy a couple different products to play with. Menzerna fills most of my regular ( non coating) detailing needs but it would appear there are easier options with regards to polishing for coating.

    I'm very interested to try this based on it's description but can anyone attest to it's actual use gloss?
