So i had to buy a daily driver. Ended up with a 2012 sonata. I assume grandma owned it and liked to put all of her stuff on the hood and trunk lid before she put it in the car... On top of that there is a 8x8" section on the rear bumper where something got dragged vertically down it.
Ive...
I think you might have a problem with the water.
1. alot of people dont have access to an outside/garage spigot.
2. alot of people dont have a "wash tub".
So you are asking the customer to walk into the house and fill up at least 2 buckets in the sink they use to wash their food/dishes. Im...
The problem with AA is that it does the opposite of what its designed to do.
Protect:
I wont go deep into the plastic breaking down process, but "professional" products replace the particles that break down in the plastic/rubber/vinyl. AA "adds" to the particles that never broke down to begin...
Ive been doing amateur hour waxing 2x a year for 20 years using either a micro fiber applicator or a brand new cotton field crest towel. While yes the paint has never been corrected and has been threw the auto wash at least 10 times (couldnt tell it was marring till i stripped it) it did cover...
Well all the used ones are gen 1 which I hear are bad. The 3rd gen ones for sale are allmost the cost of new with shipping. Guess ill use my $20 off $125 from autogeek and just get a newone :)
I bought my sonta new, and ran it through the "free car washes for life" the first winter and it did mar the paint alittle. First year i used CG nano wax after stripping the factory wax and it looked pretty good compared to stripped. Most of the micro scratches where filled in.
This year i...
Ok here is my treaded scratch taken at 3 diff angles. As you can see the "smear" travels up the scratch. I guess it could be trapped lotion. Like a finger smear on a smart phone screen.
Im just going to strip the hood and figure out whats going on. The car only has 6k on it ( i bought it new before winter). I got 2 big scratches over winter and didnt want to buff out a brand new hood. So the no abrasive "round over edges of scratches so light doesnt catch them" was what i...
I hope i didnt ruin my hood. I got the sample with one of my orders. I figured i could use it since is so non abrasive that it doesnt remove swirls. Well i did what it said, washed, in garage under florescent light, did back and forth with microfiber towel. Worked great at rounding over the...
Well if anyone wants to know what worked for me:
Do one panel at a time.
Apply like wax, one coat.
wait 30sec -1 min.
All the water spot will pop out for your enjoyment.
Wipe them once or twice more and they should go away.
Hose off, the stuff comes off real easy.
I then washed with a...
So I know how to use cg water spot remover, but what do you need to do after you wash off the product? Is the wax now stripped and you have a fresh clear coat to work with, or did it just remove the mineral deposits and your wax/sealant is still good?
