As it sits. Just finished day 2 of a 3 day spring ritual, bringing the car out of winter storage. fapatalk

No, the Poorboy's is a glaze with good filling properties. The colonite will help maintain the look. Yes we got offtopic fapatalk

Search "colonite 845" on autogeek. There is a thread about the use of it. Read it 👍 fapatalk

2 coats is ideal. Incase you missed a spot, but I'd expect 2 coats by anyone who wants a top notch job. As for quantity, less than pea sized dots. I do all mine by hand, so I just invert the bottle tightly on the applicator. I then dab over the panel and spread. fapatalk

Use it very sparingly. I do the whole car, 2 coats, with about 1" of the bottle. Warm it in a bucket of hot tap water and shake the be-jebus out of it before hand. It's sooo easy to work with and lasts from when I pull the car out in May till it gets parked in Nov. I only recoat the hood...

PB White Diamond works wonders on my white pearl car. Then I seal it with 2 coats of colonite 845. About 8-12 hrs apart. fapatalk

How do you find the insurance compared to the civic? fapatalk

10yr old...that's why. I have a 99 mazda protege and parts are peanuts. I also have an 06 mazdaspeed6, most parts shared with the regular mazda6 are cheap, awd and trim specific parts are expensive. Try a hyundai santa fe...POS car and oem parts are a ripoff. fapatalk

My dad once had a 1 ton dodge van with slant 6, 3 on the tree and 4 drum brakes as a company vehicle. I don't recall him saying anything good about that setup lol. fapatalk

6 speed in my summer vehicle, 5 speed in my winter vehicle and 13 in my work vehicle. Gotta pay attention, sometimes I forget which one I'm in. Wife's suv is auto, I drive it occasionally and get caught going for the ghost shifter/clutch! fapatalk

Here is the new wheel treatment. I think the darker grey works better with the pearl white compared to the stock Argent. fapatalk

Not a bad purchase for someone. Rock solid platform...I have over 215ooomi/347oookm on mine. Costs me under $50 a month to maintain & repair. fapatalk

Are you referring to the black streaks going down the side? That's contaminants on the water as it runs down. I don't cover mine and i get the same problem. Use pledge to remove it. I'm not joking, it comes right off. This year I plan to collonite mine to see if that will slow the build up...

I go by what I bought this year, followed by last year's purchase and then the previous and so on. Newest ones used for best jobs, old for rims, exhaust tips etc Same for wash mitts fapatalk

@dave ...How long did it take to build that up? I get some on my car, but just the odd dot here or there. Usually notice it most when I clay every spring before bringing the car out. Clay bar does remove it. I always thought it was sap or something kicked up off the road. fapatalk
