    First time detailing white vehicle

    Could I use the 501 to deep clean the paint as opposed to the Pinnacle cleansing lotion or the P21S cleanser? Is it easy to use by hand? Thanks, Mark

    First time detailing white vehicle

    You're not hijacking, it is a legitimate question pertaining to white paint. The great thing about white is the fact that swirl marks, scratches, and other imperfections are very hard to detect with the naked eye. This is also the bad thing about white when it comes to detailing. Sort of a...
