Lousy picture. I will be going home tomorrow and will get better pictures.

I just took a picture from my cellphone. The moulding looks black in the picture but it's chrome. The spots are on top of the chrome but you can't feel them. In other words they are not raised up.

About 2 months ago I bought a 2003 Mercury Grand Marquis LX with 59,000miles. The car is in EXCELLENT condition. Looks brand new !! Since buying the car I take the car to the best car wash in my city. They do an excellent job. I had the car washed yesterday and when I got home I noticed...

Thanks guys for the quick replies. I am using Meguiar's Spray Wax now BUT doesn't seem to last more than a couple of weeks. I think I will try the Optimum Spray Wax.

I had my 1991 T-Bird repainted 7 months ago. After 90 days I waxed the car with Klasse AIO. I like to use spray wax sometimes between washes. Are all spray waxes about the same or is there one that really stands out ? Thanks

I have seen posts from members talking about the 3" DA backing plate. I just ordered the Griots 3" polisher kit which will arrive today. Do I need a 3" DA backing plate to work with my new Griots polisher ? As you can tell I am not an expert when it comes to detailing. Thanks

Thanks guys for the quick replies. My Griots 3" polisher will arrive today and I will tackle the headlights next week. I don't want to sand the headlights. I will order the DP restoration kit as suggested. I tried Klasse AIO on one of the headlights and it turned out pretty good but I'm sure...

I have 2 cars that have plastic headlights. I usually take the cars every year or so to have the headlights cleaned and restored. It costs me around $20.00 per headlight for the restoration. I want to do it myself and save some money. I have the Griots 6" polisher which I know is too big for...

I have applied by hand so far using Klasse AIO. My friend is bringing back my buffer I loaned him 2 weeks ago. The buffer is a Griots 6" orbital buffer. I have three 6.5" foam pads. One green, one orange, and 1 yellow. I also have some rubbing compound by Turtle Wax. If I remember...

How did it turn out ? Did you use anything else ?

Its oxidation for sure because after working on it for about 2 hours, parts of the hood that I worked on look better. However at this rate it will take days to remove the oxidation from the entire car.

I have Klasse All In One, Meguires Ultimate Compound along with assorted waxes. I have a Griots 6" buffer. Its really strange because the Klasse AIO seems to be removing more of the oxidation than the Meguires Ultimate Compound. I feel I need something stronger for the oxidation because using...

What is UC ? Thanks

Looking for a product that removes heavy oxidation . Car is a 1991 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 convertible with clear coat. Thanks

I just purchased new silver factory alloy wheels, (non-chrome), for my Thunderbird. I have a couple of questions: 1. What product should I use to protect the finish to help cut down the brakedust, dirt, etc. ? 2. What cleaner should I use when the wheels get dirty ? I just put the wheels...
