Most Porsche’s don’t use centerlocks and, in general, owners of Porsche’s with centerlocks don’t DIY stuff or invest hundreds for the removal tool and very high duty torque wrench. If you get a flat, you normally get a flat bed tow. That said, the best way to remove the coating is to give the...

Yeah, I have an update too but was waiting... So on Monday I went ahead and ran the ozone machine in my car for 30 minutes. I also ran the HVAC system on recirculate for 10 minutes. After, I let the car air out in the garage for an hour or two and the garage ended up smelling like ozone. In any...

Hi all: I have a persistent mild-moderate odor (from food in a carryout container left for a couple weeks) in my car that I haven't been able to get rid of. I've tried cleaning every surface thoroughly including leather, alcantara, and all plastics, shampooing the carpet, using S02 Pure, using...

PM me your address and I will send you a gift [emoji320]!! OP - $700 seems like a very fair price (even low!) if it includes a full correction and wheels. It will not yellow at all and I don't think you will notice any difference vs. Cquartz. They are both great products! [emoji106] Sent...

Well, I know it isn't as healthy for my lungs as air. But, you are right, I dont mean to exaggerate this point. I have 8 cans of AA wheel protectant in my garage now - I had to stop using it as I experienced a whitish haze on black rims. It isn't as apparent on silver but it definitely alters...

OptiCoat will definitely keep your white car glossy and bright - no worries on that end. I would definitely also coat the wheels rather than using the AA spray. Not only is coating more effective across the barrels and spokes, it doesn't leave a white haze and create overspray (that you breathe...

For general use, I've never had an issue using an "OTC" clay (e.g. mothers). As far as lube, I am a fan of using soapy water. It works great and cost next to nothing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I personally wouldn't bother polishing these new wheels unless the finish is really rough right now (doubtful). Pop them off, clean with your favorite wheel cleaner, and clay/tar remove if necessary. Give a quick IPA wipe down and then coat with what you have. If it is cquartz have at it. I...

You could just wrap it with vinyl - it will be reasonably cheap and you don't need to worry about removing anything Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Mine don't lighten tremendously after cleaning, but if you want them deep black I would *lightly* wipe with 303 and then wipe again with a damp towel. But, to me clean (and not dressed) mats are just fine Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have always just used diluted APC (I use Optimum's product) and a medium stuff bristled brush (and a hose). This is certainly an effective and low cost way of cleaning them. I am not sure why you need to buy their proprietary cleaner.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Tarminator works great - I am surprised you guys need to scrub at all if you are using a like chemical. The only thing I hate is that tarminator stinks up my towels/wash media Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just FYI - was in Wally World earlier and UFF was only $12.99. I was going to pick a kit up to try but decided against it as I have other products at home already that I should use up first Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Optimum coatings are squeaky so it wouldn't surprise me if Uber's is as well... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
