If you do look into modern adjustables just be aware that the Merkur Futur is an aggressive adjustable - I have one and at its lowest setting it is more aggressive than a Gillette Fatboy at its highest setting. The Progress is much more mild in its adjustability.

You can still apply PBL in summer outside. I just applied PBL to my car outside in the sun on a day while it was 93 degrees. You just have to work quicker and probably use a bit more product but my car is fully protected.

Sounds like you had a great time even if you may had been a little limited. Glad to here you are doing better than you were last year!

I'm assuming you were out there helping Joe@Superior Shine? http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/show-n-shine/64713-15-detailers-2-gallons-wax-later-b-24-liberator-witchcraft.html Excellent work there if so! Or did you get to work on it this year for another refresher?

I still don't understand why you do not want to use PBL coating yet you want something similar? I don't see the logic in this.

Thanks for the comments! You can see the spilled amount of polish in one of the reflection shots, that nice ugly grey spot in the reflection of the driver door.

Finally had the time to get out and detail the car. After a test spot found that Blackfire SRC Finishing Polish and a white CCS pad were all that would be needed to remove the swirls from the paint. The paint was in decent condition but swirled throughout, thankfully not too deep though. I...

You do realize that Wolfgang sealant you used has a 6 month durability right? Beading is from the sealant whether your comment of 3 weeks and 7 washes was sarcastic or not. The picture should be in a review for the sealant not your product advertisement.

Your vehicle is most likely showing beading characteristics from the recently applied sealant so they are not a true representation of any beading your product many produce. I prefer a single spray bottle for my waterless wash, I don't have a need for a 2 step waterless wash.

Those exhaust tips don't look that bad at all. You should easily get that cleaned up without any steel or bronze wool needed at all. A little metal polish and those will be clean as new! You might even be able to clean those with a rag and some APC Did you see the picture of my exhaust tips...

Bronze wool will be softer than steel wool but both are still significantly more coarse than using a polish. Is there a need to get that aggressive when cleaning your exhaust tips? Does a metal polish not work?

I installed that exhaust system on my car in October and March 15th was the first time I have cleaned them. The car is a DD and I have a heavy foot quite often running it up to 7K RPM so the car gets driven as a sports car longs to be driven. After cleaning them I tested out a wax on them but...

No need for any steel wool MAAS metal polish on my exhaust tips, a little before and after for you.

This is not a good product for cars. It goes on as an opaque white not clear and it has a dull finish, not a nice glossy finish. Unless you have a very specific client that wants a matte white finish on their white car this product is useless for cars, you are far better using a proven coating...

If you are wondering what product it is that Nissan is applying to the vehicle hear is a link to the product - it is called Ultra Ever Dry and it is made by Ultratech International Ever Dry | UltraTech International Inc. Website says it will last approximately 1 year before needing to be...
