Thanks for the welcome! I'll look into a carpet protectant, thanks for that. Duraglos isn't in my mind at all. Definitely going to look into that. Veering off topic, for now I'm reusing this from my last vehicle in the back of the Cruiser. Spun around upside down the coverage isn't bad! I...

Interesting thanks. Like I rested my palm on the fender while leaning into the engine bay and it left a pretty good print of my palm lines and my hands were not grubby. Got my attention as something to be curious about. Weathertechs are in place!

Hi Autogeekers! Wow, looks like it's been 10 years since I've logged in! I've been happily keeping my vehicles looking slightly better than average using my knowledge and products from a decade ago that I came to like and trust (Klasse, Wolfgang prep and sealant, 303 protectant, DP total...

Hello!

Right here please.

That's where I draw the line. I've read about some products causing issues with disks. I use a special-purpose polish for that. Mapleshade Records has a very good disk polish. You could google up a recipe for a DIY formula too.

I've used the PC but never a swirl remover, not knowing anything about the makeup of the top sheet. I do usually SG them, too. Helps the snow release easily. I took this pic before I sold this board - the flash tells no lies, it could use a bit more love. In use though this thing looked...

Washer and drier get Klassed - the plexi of the front load washer in particular is fantastic after a detailing. Also do the top sheets on my snowboards. I have a 20 year old Playmate cooler that I detail every spring. For some reason that detailed cooler makes me very happy. DP Total...

Autogeek pick me for a Flex Knife!

Thanks everyone. This does connect some dots for me and adds some insight into things I thought I knew. Ain't it the truth? Why these cars get so little lovin' attention is beyond me.

I see numerous references to paint hardness, as in "that xxx from manufacturer yyyy has soft paint, so...". A couple questions: 1. What difference does paint hardness make? 2. Knowing something about the hardness of a paint, how does that affect your approach? 3. Seems like hardness varies...

Thanks everyone. Tonight I had a very dirty wagon after some wet dirt road All Wheel Driving. Dirty and gritty. I got out a pump pressure sprayer and initially was pleased with what was coming off. As I worked my sponge top to bottom, I became increasingly uncomfortable, and I ultimately I...

Hello, I've started using ONR and I have some DP no rinse on the way, too. I just love the No Rinse thing so far, doubly so in water scarce Denver. I'm wondering, though, if No Rinse products are appropriate for very, very, very dirty cars. Think 100 miles in heavy winter traffic in the...
