Did Autogeek stop carrying this product? I can't seem to buy more.

Maybe I could use an APC to clean off the lens and try again. I had originally tried to just keep waxing the lens, but I don't think car wax have sufficient uv blockers. paul

I purchased this from Autogeek some months ago, but finally got some time to use it. The headlight is yellow and hazy after 9 years in the sun. I was able to remove the haze using a cleaner wax. Now I need to protect it, so I apply the coating. Thee coating is supposedly good for 3 years, but I...

I just had a thought. My metal table has rust stains on it because someone left a pizza pan on the surface and it rusted over the finish. The table has a powdercoat finish. Do you think it's safe to use the Ferrex on it? It would be interesting test to see if it removes the rust stains. Paul

There was no purple bits in the ground either. Most likely explanation is that I don't get a lot of metal in the area, just a lot of bird poop and tree sap which probably doesn't react with the iron remover. I was generous with the product, but it look rather disturbing like it was gelling on...

Recently, I decided to use a iron remover on the car in case there was metal contaminates. I washed the car and spray Optimum FerreX on the car. The instructions indicated that the spray should be left for a minute and then rinse off. I tried this on two different car, a new car that needed to...

I know that headlight eventually haze over when UV light overcome the protection coating that comes with the car. I was trying to find a way to prevent or delay the inevitable yellowing of the lens. Supposedly, the actual coating used in headlight lens are a compound that is cured using UV and...

Now that the temperature is finally above freezing, I was trying to apply some tuff shine that I purchase fron Autogeek a month or two back. I ran into a problem with the product, the tire is heavily ribbed, which resulted in a lot of product getting into the crevices. It seems ok then when it...

Yes, they sell battery maintainer that plugs into a wall outlet. The problem is that relative doesn't have a garage and so there is no outlet. I thought about getting some sort of solar power maintainer, but just had the person drive the car longer distance to charge up the battery and burn away...

The interval does seemed long, but this is what the manual states: Engine Coolant* Replace coolant at the specified interval. When adding or replacing coolant, be sure to use only Genuine Nissan Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (Blue) or equivalent with the proper mixture.(RefertotheOwner’sManual...

Hi, I have a relative who drives their car short distances. As a result, they drive about 1,000 miles a year. This is a bit of a challenge to handle maintenance-wise. For example, the car hasn't reached the 5,000 miles interval for oil change in 4 years, but really should have had one. Here are...

After some research, it appears that PIAA would be a good choice for wiper blades because they work well and can be replace economically by replacing the inserts. However, I notice that there are 3 different types: PIAA Aero Vogue PIAA Super Silicone PIAA Sci-Tech From what I can determine...

I own quite a large number of leather product. Usually, I clean it using Lexol cleaner and then lubricated using Lexol conditioner. Until recently though, all of the cars I owned have cloth seats. Recently, I purchased a car with perforated leather seat. I was going to treat it with Lexol, too...

I have a relative in the bay area that recently purchased a car and would like to maintain it, but they are pretty busy and wants to minimize what needs to be done. The area isn't near the ocean, rarely freezes, rain constantly in the winter, but not at all in the summer. Summer can be hot and...

Now that the temperature is above freezing, I took my wife's car to a touchless car wash so that I can do an undercarriage wash. Because the touchless car wash can contain harsh chemical, I drove the car back to my driveway and then use a waterless and a bunch of towels to clean off any...
