    My technique concerning the 3401, Menzerna products, and Hybrid pads

    sorry I didnt read through all the pages and posts so this question may have already been answered, I used the Lake Country Orange and white hybrid pads this last weekend and a concern of mine was how stiff the pads were and how much product it took to get them nice , primed and softened. And...

    Bravo Rupes!: Rupes "System"

    They changed their cord's on the new machines. my 21 has the better cord like the Duetto has. I think its rubber, similar to the flex cord.

    Car Leather products on home couches?

    Completely disagree ! Most leather maintenance products for home use by the consumer and professional are relabeled Leather Master/United products. With such a diverse range of cleaners, its foolish to say that pinnacles single product will outperform them. I have used both lines and...

    Car Leather products on home couches?

    Just be careful and be very sure to do a test spot. Some couch's are real uncoated/unfinished leather. My parents bought some expensive couch's that the dealer claimed the hide was manufactured and assembled in Italy. I thought yeah, yeah , ok... marketing at its finest. So I sold my...

    Claying vs Polish (Opti Coat 2.0)

    Menzerna products , even though water based, are very oily. Yes you HAVE to do an IPA wipe down after using them. Its a must otherwise you have the potential to get very cloudy results. Optimum power Clean will remove polishing oils and wax. (but not durable Polymer Sealants). Use it at a...

    help: how to clean up rust and seal paint

    I forgot to ask., are you going for the rusted look ? This has become a real niche at the shows lately. lol if so, dont use the iron X on the paint as its gonna help remove the majority of it.

    help: how to clean up rust and seal paint

    We ran into the same problem when we moved our Studebaker to our house on the shoreline. The front and rear bumpers rusted within a couple months. We had to move the car about 15 miles inland. We eventually restored the entire vehicle and repainted it. Your best bet would be to clean the...

    XMT 360 vs. BF total polish & seal

    I think XMT cleans and corrects more. Blackfire seems to more of a cleaner and protectant. It leaves the paint extremely smooth with a nice finish. I find it more of a maintenance product. If the car is neglected I would reach for the XMT first. Either way, I wouldnt upsell either of these...

    Still woudering about V-7

    IME V7 is a very nice, streak free quick detailer. I dont consider it a standalone product in any sort of way, but it will help boost and/or prolong water beading from your LSP.

    GTechniq Smart Fabric

    forgot to mention, the pricing blows the competition away as well. price does not reflect performance in this case.

    Waterspotting with GTechniq Exo v2??

    you really should have inspected the paint first. Its likely that the EXO is amplifying the waterspots. Whatever wax or sealant you had on the paint prior , likely did a very good job of masking the water spots. But like all silica and resin coatings , waterspotting is the downfall. Dont...

    GTechniq Smart Fabric

    agreed, excellent product ! very easy to use and dries quickly when compared to the competition. For fabric I think the ease of use is far better than Carpro fabric. The real difference is how easily this soaks in and dries. its a very thin product.

    Introducing Black Label Synergy - Nano Coating Wax!

    ok folks. I used this wax and the results are truly amazing. The water beading is out of this world. I think it beads better than BL Paint coating. I know its stated in the product description that application is similar to Souveran "as it wipes on like butter". I have to disagree with...

    Mr. Pink conspiracy theory

    and thats really all that matters !! Its all about your own preference and user experience. Many times have I bought the product of the month only to ask myself how the hell everyone on the forums like the said specific product so much.

    Mr. Pink conspiracy theory

    Its gonna be VERY tough to beat out a soap like Lusso or Optimum. Those products are really a step above everything out there for a washing experience. Especially the LUSSO shampoo. That stuff is amazing. Insane lubricity and foam as well as cleaning power. Same goes for Optimum. i...

    Adams In & Out Spray Equivalent??

    I would like to say chemical guys black on black but the problem is the spray pattern of their product. With Adams in and out the spray pattern is very fine and dispersed, making it easy to cover tough areas that really cant be reached to do a final wipe down (engine compartment). So the...
