Perhaps dilute a bit with some distilled water. And always use a clean microfiber to wipe.

I don’t always use soap, but when I do I use Meguiars Gold Class. Normally I will just rinse less wash with ONR.

I use Meguiars Hyper Dressing 4:1, leaves a nice natural shine, not too blingy like a kid who just discovered tire dressing :)

The Pro HD (purple version) of Simple Green which I’m using has a ph of 10-11.5 undiluted. It’s like Simple Green on steroids. Yet safe for metal, rubber, plastics, etc.

Thanks for digging up this old thread! I just got a bottle of Simple Green Pro HD, which I just used to clean my wheels. I mixed up 13:1 water/cleaner solution in an IK Foamer 2, thick foam coated the wheels, then hit it with some brushes and looked pretty good. The Pro HD simple green...

I’ve used it as well as Complete Compound. It does what it says. Removes light swirls and polishes the paint. Perhaps use it with a black griots finishing pad with two or three section passes and it’ll shine things up nicely.

I think you’re onto something here.. I recently compounded and polished my Audi, then used Meguiars ultimate liquid wax, topped with Collinite 845. The glow I see in the reflections is amazing, especially at sunset. The car just looks amazing with that Carnauba LSP.

Right. The larger number is always the water in auto detailing. 3 parts water to 1 part solution.

The label says 2:1, but I find that 3:1 does a fine job.

I use MEGUIAR’S non-Acid Wheel & Tire cleaner diluted 3:1

I bet that black is from the black plastic trim piece. I would tape that up before trying to polish the pillar.
