    Battery-Operated DA Polisher Available?

    I bought the Griots Garage cordless DA for my dad to apply wax and sealants to his car. He found the GG6 to be a hassle everytime he waxed the car (which is like once a month). The GG Battery powered DA is fantastic for this task. It really is. Its small, light and makes more than enough...

    Are Pinnacle Foam Applicators Best?

    The absolute BEST foam applicator I have ever used are the blue ones from Surf City Garage. They are extremely durable and the foam composition is very soft and the product spreads much further with less product when using them compared to yellow applicators. They kind of remind me of the...

    Non-Pro Coating Comparison Discussion: Which is the best coating available to NON-professionals?

    Polish Angel Viking Coat or Cosmic. Amazing looks, and decent chemical resistance. Applying and removal are just incredibly easy and the look is like pouring an additional layer of clear coat over the car.

    2014 Carpro Reload

    If Eraser is not working then they are really cured in place. A light chemical paint cleaner on a MF pad is likely what your going to need. Something like Klasse AIO will do the job. Its not going to abrade away your coating if used by hand. you could also try something like Duragloss...

    Cleaning microfiber towels??

    It depends on how much you want to preserve your investment. technically speaking, yes, its fine. I personally do not. First thing I do is color coordinate them. then sort them based on the task their used for. for example, - Light colored drying towels get washed together in one...

    Not sure what to do after applying WG TSR ?

    considering you did not drive the car, I personally would use a waterless wash a panel at a time to make sure its surgically clean. then go about finishing your polish session. I hate washing cars. It seems to take me forever no matter how much I try to limit the amount of tools and steps used.

    Wolfgang Half Gallon Foamaster Foam Gun

    Wolfgang auto bath will work very well in a foam gun. its just expensive to be using like that. probably why they recommended DP Xtreme foam. Like the guy above said, there are some better values out there for using in a foam gun that are a bit more concentrated. chemical guys honey dew is...

    Plastic window soft top convertible - how to make clear

    I was gonna post this product as well. works incredibly well at cleaning up haze for a spray on APC. pretty weird, but after using no polishing is required. stuff pulls oxidation like nobodys bizz. you could even try using it on a machine polisher with a MF finishing disk. no pressure...

    Review - Pinnacle Black Label Leather Products

    The cleaner and conditioner are the same (identical down to description and instructions) as duragloss. I would get those instead considering the price... also duragloss comes with a sprayer on the cleaner which works better like you are thinking it would. The leather coating is a unique...

    Sonax net shield or 476?

    Polymer Net Shield is a pretty amazing product. its a lot different most likely than anything most have used. I watched a video from Sonax (I will look for it and post it) showing what is chemically going on when you apply their Hybrid NPT products and it looks pretty similar to those little...

    removing morning dew

    already posted above, but morning dew is basically distilled water. The same natural process that cleans the moisture in our air and rain water typically.

    What leather conditioner/last step product do you guys use on LEATHER SEATS?

    I prefer Leather Master Protection Cream. It makes the seats feel very natural (high end cars have leather thats soft and grippy) and has ZERO sheen. If anything it actually mutes any natural sheen the leathers protective coating creates. I dislike any conditioner type product that tries to...

    Klasse AIO, HG sealant, & Collinite in one weekend

    KAIO is a chemical cleaner, but it stands out from the other cleaner products cause it actually removes some pretty decent hazing similar to a finishing polish. Its kind of hard to define Klasse AIO, I sometimes doubt there isn't some sort of abrasive in it. Werkstat Prime also removes a lot...

    Do any of you guys who do detailing for work use a clear coat meter / gauge?

    If its not accurate and telling you how much CLEAR is on the car, I (personally) find very little use for it besides telling which panels have been resprayed. But most experienced detailers dont need a paint gauge to see if the panel has been repainted. The ones that are accurate are expensive.

    DA polisher question

    its a very good machine. I have that and their 2" DA pneumatic sander. Both are very inexpensive and have similar performance to the high quality DA's sold on Autogeek. I typically have doubts on the durability of most any power tool sold by harbor freight but you can get the warranty and...

    what setting should I set the GG6 to polish glass?

    6. IMO, most DA polishers should come with 2 speeds. low and high. Something like speed 3 and 6. And then the on/off switch. setting 1 and 2 are pretty useless, 3 to 4 is good for waxing. and 4 to 6 is good for correction. The nice thing about the GG6 is that speed 6 is very well...

    Is it just me or does this make anyone else cringe?

    how do you know for a "Fact". What makes you believe so ? Thats sure looks like single stage paint oxidation to me. Many cheap, low quality body shops repaint cars with single stage paint still to this day. It looks like he's at a junkyard or something similar. And what he is doing is...

    Blackfire Trim and Tire Sealant Review

    wow, impressive. I have the product but i didnt think it would perform this well compared to UTTG old formula. I actually like the blackfire trim sealant better than the new UTTG formula. the new UTTG is a bit too glossy for my taste.

    REVIEW: CarPro Reload 2014 "New & Improved"

    I gave up completely . its way too much of a hassle to try to use this product. I want effective products that are easy to use. I'm not against anyone with a different philosophy. I wont even attempt its use on a dark colored car and I also dont sit well with the fact that I should not...
