    New Colorado Jeep Owner with Questions!

    I tried Opti-Coat 2.0 which is replaced now with new version Optimum Gloss-Coat.. Many great paint coatings now available from other brands like CQuartz, Pinnacle, Blackfire, DP.. Read reviews and pick what you prefer.. For Glass, Optimum Optim-Glass coating is great, still holding up after 15...

    New Colorado Jeep Owner with Questions!

    Welcome to AGO and congrats on the new Jeep! Mine is 1.5 years old now and still shines like a brand new Jeep because I'm taking good care of it myself by protecting it since day 1 and then properly washing it every week.. I coated everything paint, glass, wheels and tires.. With coatings you'll...

    Sonax Perfect Finish then Polymer Net Shield?

    Not sure about perfect finish but I used Sonax premium class paint cleaner right before applying PNS with no issues, I've seen videos by Sonax where they go directly from that paint cleaner polish to Sonax nano coating or Sonax carnauba wax

    Trouble dressing older tires?

    How old are those tires you're talking about? I'm not a pro but from my experience, I had to repeat the cleaning process (spray APC, scrub hard with tire brush then rinse with PW/hose) 4-6 times to clean my 6months old tires (until the APC turns to white foam when scrubbed on tire)..

    Towel management (how OCD are you?)

    This towel is great for WW/RW and wiping off sealant/wax/QD.. But for polish removal, short nap towels would be better

    New Nanoskin Mitt

    I think if you foam the whole car first then start claying, the foam will dry and the last few panels won't be wet enough for claying! IMO it's easier to use RW as a clay lube and you don't have to rinse again after claying since the car has been foamed, washed and rinsed twice..

    Microfiber or sheepskin wash mitt

    I tried sheepskin mitts, they don't last long enough and the good quality ones are expensive and require special care to keep them good for longer.. I also tried micro chenille mitts (supreme gray and onyx black) but wasn't impressed and now use them on wheels and tires only.. I then tried the...

    Looking for a wheel cleaner?

    I clean my wheels throughly (with APC and Sonax FE) once every 6 months then coat them with Dlux (or paint coating if I have some), tires also get scrubbed multiple times with APC then 2 or 3 coats of Tuf Shine.. So for 6 months, I use only wash soap or Rinseless solution to clean them!

    what do you use for a detailers spray - bulk size

    - Meg's D114 when cleaning only is needed. - Meg's M135 or UWW+ when extra shine and/or slickness is needed. - Pinnacle WW with Carnauba when my LSP is a wax.

    Tips for using Cquartz DLUX on wheels?

    Dlux have been on my black 18" wheels for 4 months (4k miles), they still look like the day I coated them and looks like it'll hold up for much longer than that. Just clean with car soap if I'm doing 2B wash, or same rinseless/waterless solution if I'm doing rinseless/waterless wash. I have...

    california duster question

    Don't use it on paint! Some say if used properly, it won't scratch the paint.. But how can you control this bulky/heavy thing and let it barely touch the surface while using on vertical panels?! Get a light and soft microfiber duster, better safe than sorry.. This is what I use: Very light...
