    Griots Complete Compound vs. Megs Ultimate Compound

    I just had a similar issue OP. Same as you- i used ultimate polish and several spots remained after about 4-5 passes. I ended up going in by finger tip with UP on a microfiber towel on the trouble spots. I used it very sparingly/dry. It worked. It cleaned up the spots easily. Then I did a couple...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Same here. All glass but the windshield. Until now lol. Because it said cleaner/repellant. I figured “how bad could it be? It’s gotta be mostly a cleaner”. I have my answer.

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I got some RainX Ceramic glass cleaner/sealant and it made an absolute mess out of my glass. It left a residue that I can NOT wash off the glass and the windshield is foggy. You guys have any tips for me?

    DG AquaWax as drying aid for ceramic coating

    I’ve been using different brands of ceramic spray coatings the last couple of years. Last week I pulled out the Aquawax, and to my surprise, it seems glossier than most of the spray coatings. Right now I’ve got the aqua wax on top of Blackfire SiO2 spray sealant and the AW really amped up the gloss.

    Call to Ban YouTubers

    Remarkable thread here. When I drive down Main Street, there are some businesses I like and some businesses I don’t like. I don’t shop at the ones I don’t like. I still have to look at them (I wish I didn’t), but I don’t think they should be “banned”. That’s not the kind of governance I want...

    How to avoid germs - Gas Station

    I’ve been using nitriles at the pump since January 21st. By February 2nd I was wondering why the Dow hadn’t plummeted yet. The information was out there for anyone looking for it.

    Wheel cleaner as rust remover ??

    I’m out of iron decon products and plan to seal my car tomorrow. Tonight I noticed several specs of rust (rail dust type specs). Last time I used the Dub wheel cleaner on my wheels I noticed it color-changed. I assume this is reducing the iron on the dirty wheels? If that’s the case, can I...

    Video: Review of the NEW Turtle Wax Ceramic Spray Coating (Hybrid Solutions) !!

    We’re not going to lie, if you want a chemical resistant product, ICE Seal N Shine is your go to, but if you want the complete package – from ease of use, to durability to a high-gloss shine, Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Spray Coating is our pick! My read on this is that SnS is a more durable...

    Best $10 Tire Dressing

    Another Duragloss 253 fan here. I’ve tried em all, but the DG is the only one that checks all the boxes. No sling, dries dry, control the finish with number of coats, lasts weeks if it doesn’t get wet, but will last through a couple rains or car washes. Hard to beat at $11.

    Griot's G9 observation...

    I’m curious as to why griots would promote (sell) the new polisher as a 6” when we’ve been told for years that a 5” backing plate with 5.5” pads is better. Why does Griots do this when the first thing everyone does is buy a smaller backing plate and smaller pads? I’m not criticizing at all...

    Griot's Garage G9 Random Orbital Polisher *VIDEO*

    Anyone know if they'll be making the G9 with a 25' power cord? That's the one thing that would make me keep my GG6 over the upgrade.

    Menzerna Powerlock Prep

    Based on what I've read so far here, I'd simply give your RAV a wash and apply the Powerlock. You'll be just fine and happy with the results. Skip the clay unless there are obvious signs of contamination like spots of sap that you can feel with your hands.

    Glass sweat issue

    As an experiment... i used Ultima Acrylic Spray Wax on one of my patio doors and left the other one without it. Hands down, the one with the spray wax stays MUCH better looking. Cleaner and less water spots. By a long shot.
