I bought a license plate frame that has a polycarbonate lens. When I received it, it had a few scratches on the lens. I tried Meguiars plast-x, it left swirls in the little area I tested. The same thing happened when I tried the Novus #2. I am thinking of trying the Meguiars #10 and #17 combo...

OK, so a good glaze. Thanks

I have a brand new black Prius. I told the dealer not to touch it; they didn't. I washed it with pinnacle body shampoo, then clayed with Sonus ultra fine clay, rewashed, and when I was applying the Zaino, I turned on my Halogen lights and noticed cross-hatch scratches where the side of the car's...

If I need to install door mouldings and a rubber bumper protector, should this be done between the claying and the appling of sealant? It seems like the sealant or wax might not allow the 3m tape to adhere as well. I do recall installing some ventshades (which used the 3m tape) and all I did was...

TOGWT - I just just saying to myself, if only there was some kind of "grading" system for clays. Thanks for that.

Good idea! Thanks.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I will post some pics as soon as I get it and polish it.

I understand the sickness. :D I haven't even received my Prius yet and my detailing arsenal is huge already. I've already received my first huge order of supplies from autogeek.com and I'm putting together a second order now. Even if I dont need the Meguires clay for the Prius, I have other...

Is Meguires blue the "mild" Meguires sold here on autogeek.net? I think I'll order a bottle of the Pinnacle clay lube to have as extra so I can use the Sonus lube generously. Yes, my thoughts were to get the mildest clay possible so I wouldn't leave any marks that would need to be polished...

OK, thanks.

I bought some Sonus SFX ultra fine clay because I will be claying a brand new car (black paint). I was reading in a forum that the sonus SFX is so fine that it will not remove overspray or all contaminants. My main objective in claying a brand new car is to remove all of the contaminants. Does...

Autogeek.net can I have a Flex Rotary!

Very well explained, thank you.

Thanks for the numerous replies! Is the general consensus that the Souveran on top of the Zaino is just overkill or is there a problem the Zaino's ability to cross-link with the carnuba?

Hi all - At some point in time I have heard to wait a month before waxing a new car for fear of the paint not being fully cured. Is this true? Should I try to find out the manufacture month by the door sticker or some other way? I am getting my new Prius on April 16th and my question is how...
