    Disappointed with Optimum's international distributors

    I'm a detailer in Hong Kong and while I love AG and always loyal to order from them, I can't always meet the minimum amount order for international shipping, especially if it's just to test a single product. So lately I've been researching Opti-seal and Zaino Z-CS, Opti-seal overall got much...

    Error from AGO/Tap Talk - trying view forum from iPhone

    It affects Android and iOs from what I gathered and it's the AG app itself. As others have mentioned, you can go through the Tapatalk app instead.

    Error from AGO/Tap Talk - trying view forum from iPhone

    I thought it was my phone since there was a OS update since I have multiple phones for traveling, but it's like this on all my android phones so I ended up deleting the app. Shame as it's much more convenient to use to browse the boards while on the road. Hope it gets fixed and AG keeps us...

    Turtle wax ice products

    Sounds to me like you either didn't apply or buff the sealant properly.

    Anybody try mixing waxes?

    I think every detailer has at some point mixed products for various reasons. I myself having recently mixed a rinseless wash with some liquid Carnauba wax to see what the results would be. Aside from the manufacture, none of us can really tell you if it's 100% good or bad.

    Clay Baring?

    I personally feel claybar is essential to the process regardless of how clean YOU think the paint might be, it's an added peace of mind to know you took all the precautions. Do a search of the forum or Google baggie test.

    Cleaning Mercedes Benz MB-Tex seats

    My wife is a 2010 C and I use MF on the seats all the time when cleaning them and have no problems. Assuming you use quality ones I don't see a problem with it.

    What are some good paint coatings?

    It should be, however I had an issue where even following those steps, my car want beading very well. Someone suggested that after using the PBL polish to follow up with a IPA wipedown to ensure a even cleaner surface for the coating to bond.

    What are some good paint coatings?

    The base you apply it to, IE prep work. Then proper application and finally maintenance of the coating.

    What are some good paint coatings?

    There are many and it's really up to you to decide which suits you more. I've used CQuartz, Pinnacle Black Label, CG, etc. It's after going through the different brands that I was able to settle on one that suited my needs most.

    Best "AIO" (1 Step) Polish

    Honestly I think your best answer is to test the products you've narrowed down yourself and see which one suits your needs/standards better. I've gone by forum recommendations before and while grateful, didn't always meet my needs or standards as each person is different.

    How many of you use a MACHINE to WAX your vehicle?

    I have by machine but I still prefer to do it by hand. Doing it by hand allows me to feel the contours of the body and work the wax in those areas. I work the wax in so I usually don't worry so much about high spots.
