Thanks so much Nick !!! :)

i think your reading my post wrong. my brother has a 30 year old car that was resprayed 6 years ago. He concluded that the paint get SOFTER over time with a huge significance. And that it was a constant variable on EVERY car. this week the paint is hard, and this week next year its softer...

I gotta ask, are you sure you removed the original scratches ? If so, how did you confirm this ?

If your new to paint correction, the most common mistake is moving from one step to the next without inspecting your work. You should be compounding until ALL of the scratches are gone. you dont move onto the polishing step until you 100% confirm this. That means removing all the product...

great generator, we have 2 of them for work. can run an sds max hammer drill and DDEC-1 core drill at the same time on one of them. thats about maxed out. I cant see any detailing tool requiring that much power at once. Should be able to use multiple halogen lights and any polisher at the...

I agree, its REALLY expensive at that dilution to not freeze. But to be honest I have watered it down quite a bit further than the recommendation on the bottle and still found that it did not freeze. It does work incredibly well at cleaning up the windshield on those nasty weeks after it snow...

I have used it. It works well and Ive always been under the assumption that is more surface friendly to your vehicle and winter protection on that vehicle.

Thanks Nick, I appreciate the help. For all those discussing the optimum forum... I gave up on that place about 3 years ago. VERY little information or feedback there. Another problem is response time. I didnt want to wait 3 month to get an answer so instead I came to one of the more...

I dont think both are necessary to use at once., but if you will, I believe you will want to use the Wet Diamong AFPP first. let that cure overnight, then top it with the crystal seal. The crystal seal, IMO, is more of a top up product to help maintain previous protection. It can be used by...

in a lot of cases, regardless of the lube or amount used that nanoskin decon product WILL marr paint. even hard BMW paint. It caused what looked like holograms on my metallic black BMW. If your not planning on the polishing, try sticking with a soft/fine claybar instead. something like...

First off (IME), you will not be thinning your clearcoat anything substantial with a finishing polish and a DA polisher. I doubt it would even register a difference checking with a high quality paint depth gauge. You will remove more paint compounding the car once, than polishing the paint...

If your getting holograms on black paint, you are most likely also getting them on white , silver and all light colors as well. its just more difficult to see. but if your looking for them you will find them in the correct angle and natural sunlight.

From what i'm reading it seems there are many tricky you can try to avoid them, but imo (i do not use a rotary) it just seems the easier way to go would be to use a DA polisher on your last or second to last step and you will pretty much guarantee a hologram free finish. that sounds like a...

4 star for ease of use. BUT, they just changed up the formula to a now VERY thick lotion. Similar to the new formula of Pinnacle liquid Souveran. I mean thick to the point that is seems almost pointless to even try to shake the bottle. I have yet to try this new formula but I do know the...

Thats strange as I typically always use this product when i'm looking for a good 1 step product that offers very easy cleanup. meaning the product produces virtually zero dust. It could be a few things. The product is pretty concentrated and you dont need to heavily prime your pad...

I'm trying to find out if these products are safe on ALL surfaces ? Including factory installed clear film ? like the film that is OEM applied on the front of 1/4 panels ? My concern began when i saw that Ferrex was also a tar and wax remover. I have always avoided clear plastics/films with...

I really want to try the Supernatural leather cleaner and sealant/protectant. They sound very similar to the leather masters system (especially the sealant). I really wish Autogeek would sell us these products.

I think the performance of the hydrotech pads are better. To be honest i think they are the best pads on the market. They give such great results on pretty much any paint with any machine. There is a tradeoff though. And that tradeoff is significant. The Hydrotechs are just not durable no...

funny thing is I just touched up an X5 yesterday with the new DR.CC bottle. its kind of a soft plastic and it actually mix's a lot faster and easier it seems. Typically I always had a hard time shaking up the metallic colors when in the glass bottle. Being that the glass was so rigid it was...

Cordless DA technology does NOT need to advance. There is nothing special or specific to a "DA sander". the manufacturers just need to see that there is demand for the machine to be produced. If a manufacturer can make all these tools WITH a 5 year warranty (on the tool) and 3 year...
