I thought I read to wipe off rather gently as to not disturb the coating's bonding. I used a new suede every time I applied. I applied to an eighth of the hood at a time making sure to use all 8 sides of the towel to buff off. Pressure sounds like it could work for my situation because what I...

I'm just frustrated because 1. It costs 50 bucks plus the time to apply, remove, reapply blah blah blah, 2. Because it really does everything it should except look perfect in the sun and 3. Because it seems like so many people have success with it in similar situations to mine and I somehow...

I let it sit for as long as it took me to set the applicator down and pick up the suede towel. I only got UK because I figured it'd be easier to apply. I made the mistake of not accounting for it being summer. Maybe I'll try something else or re try the coating when it's cooler

I've applied Cquartz UK to the hood of my black VW and I've wiped it down numerous times with eraser, checked the paint in full sun, then applied. I used the suede applicator and only did a small 2x2 section at a time. It's about 75 degrees and ~30 humidity i would guess. When I pull it back out...

I've used flat top, classic cut, and classic polish and have had only great results with them as far as cut and finish. Like those who've used them have said, even the most aggressive Flat Top can finish LSP ready on most finishes. And to answer my own question in my OP, they don't really...

I haven't seen much on these products as far as reviews. Just wondering if anybody has experience with these products and if so, do they have a lot of polishing oils in them? Thanks

I agree, the wash mitt on the inside was shocking. He seemed to like everything "nice and shiny"

Welcome! I'm in Buffalo as well

sadly, this is more common than one would like to imagine. I do some work for a company that works directly through a high volume new/used dealership and despite being asked to do quite a bit of business, the cars are trashed either from washing with brushes and water in a 55 gallon trash can...

+1 On Sonax Polymer Netshield. I personally dont think application is difficult like some may say. It's not the easiest to apply like WGDGPS but it's certainly easier than Collinite 845. Having a thick foam applicator is a must and using the grippy-ness to your advantage. Apply to half a...

I've always used CG wash and gloss but it separates too much and, at least for me, didn't seem to ever suds right. With the recent BOGO on Citrus Wash Clear, I got two gallons of that. After the first few washes with it, I already love it. It suds up like crazy, it has a ton of lubricity...

Not to bring up this old thread for no reason but what does "I'm not Japanese but I know it's a big number" have to do with anything? Oh, and I was searching an issue I'm having with my tornador and this came up

Mother's makes a great stiff bristled nylon brush that I use often to scrub carpets and seats. Just be careful as it's rather aggressive. For leather and vinyl that is not too dirty, I use a wheel woolie boars hair brush and just work APC into the seat and then wipe off.

I saw a "detailer" using steel wool to remove bugs from a painted plastic bumper. I've seen a dealership use a 55 gallon garbage can filled with soap and water used as the community wash bucket. Then I saw a girl scrub her dirty black car with a brush before spraying it off. I offered to help...
