    Windscreen always hazy/dirty

    The cars just under 5 years old now wouldn't all the gas have escaped by now ? Would cleaning the dash with an AIO cleaner help ? It's strange as it's fine for a few days then bam windshield dirty. The cars now coming up to 5 years though. I would have thought it would have all out gassed...

    Windscreen always hazy/dirty

    No matter how often I clean my windscreen it develops a kind of fog or dirty haze inside after 2 - 3 days of cleaning it. I say dirty because it's not a basic fog that goes away it sometimes has a brownish tinge to it. I'm unsure if it's a chemical of the dash or my dash mat (washing it today...

    Should I polish my car ?

    I have a bright silver car that I plan to apply Optimum Gloss Coat to. The car does have swirls but I can only see them when the lights hitting it in a specific angle. Can't see anything in bright lights or sunlight. Im just wondering if it's worth compounding and polishing the car since I...

    Glass coating vs wax

    I've been coating my rear windscreen with Collinite 845 and it does a nice job at making the water bead. The issue I'm having is that the water tends to bead but not flow off the glass. I have a rear dash cam so like the glass to remain as clean as possible so the license plates can be...

    How to wash dirty car ?

    It's just random dirt sections all over the car. So on the around the wheel arches/lower parts of the car it looks like mud. On other parts it's just general dirt/contamination thats not coming off. I used my foam cannon first to help loosen up the dirt then rinsed the car with my pressure...

    How to wash dirty car ?

    Hello all, The car hasn't been washed in 4+ weeks so it's accumulated a fair amount of dirt. First hit it with warm water and DG901 in my foam cannon followed by two passes washing by hand with DG901 as well. To my surprise i'm still finding stubborn caked on dirt in certain areas. On the...

    Gloss coat how many CC ?

    Thanks everyone for the responses. It seems 10cc should be plenty to use, Optimum have also confirmed the same thing. I did buy the carpro foam and suede applicator which supposedly makes a big difference.

    silver cars :(

    I agree with what a few of the above posters said. This is my first silver car and it's been great. It doesn't show dirt like other colours but it makes imperfections near impossible to find. There should be tonnes of scratches in my paint but no matter how hard I try finding them I cannot ...

    Gloss coat how many CC ?

    Hello all, Looking for some feedback for those that have used Gloss Coat, how many CC's did you use ? The car is a Kia Optima with a pano sunroof and i'm not sure if I should go with the 10cc pack or 20cc pack? I plan to do two coats. Thanks everyone and have a great new year !

    best windshield washer fluid/additive

    I bought some and am madly in love with this product ! I've only discovered Einzsett products in the last 5 months or so, whilst some of their products aren't anything special the ones i've been using have blown my mind. I am very anal on keeping my windshield clean (without removing wax) and...

    Compound before polish ?

    Thank you so much for your help ! I'm guessing a polish will be enough as I can't even pick up swirls in the paint ( I know there should be plenty). I'll start on least aggressive and work my way up. Thank you so much for the help ! Looks like it's finally very easy to apply a coating !
