I gave up on Kwazar after several failures. I have IK, Marolex, and an Autogeek branded one. The IK and Marolex are both good. I’d give Marolex a slight advantage in feeling solid and haven’t felt one is more ergonomic than the other for me.

Didn’t happen on my flares. High spots?

The more detailed the prep, the longer the lsp tends to last. That, of course, is balanced by the longevity of the lsp you are using. Big difference between beadmaker and CQUK3. I would only polish if you absolutely need to but I don’t really know about non-abrasive polishes. Have you felt your...

It’s possible but much less likely in my (limited) experience. You pays your fee and you takes your chances as they say. Only you can decide on the amount of contamination that is worth the risk to you. Fortunately, it doesn’t seem to be a big problem here.

Jamie Pardee did suggest one short spray on the window and same on towel. Kinda interferes with the box and fill I’ve been using on windows for twenty years.

Took a poor quality video of my struggles with it…

Finally decided to satisfy my Bilthammer curiosity. I ordered Touchless and Traceless. I also got a pump foamer. Part of the reason I hadn’t yet is that I use my power washer so rarely it didn’t seem worthwhile. However, if I can pump up and rinse off then it becomes a more reasonable option...

Ran my MINI to the local butcher…

Regarding clay: feel the paint! Does it feel contaminated? If it is, are you using clay bar or a clay towel (or similar)? The clay towels (etc) mar much less than clay.

Oh heck no

I’ve got Iconic, DIY, and Hero to compare. I will say it’s got a built in higher bar to overcome (ie He shall not be named) compared to its competitors.

Maverick got a rinseless with he who shall not be named’s Clean Rinseless. Seems to be pretty good stuff.

A lot depends on the condition of the paint? Is there swirling? Feel the paint. Is there contamination?

That’s my preference too

Had the UBS for a while but didn’t use it consistently. Recently went on a buying spree — legacy, villain, iconic. Thinking I like the UBS the most but after one try the iconic is pretty good.

Quick ONT green wash of the MINI. Was mainly dusty from dirt blown even from the recent 90 mph windstorm.

My mother had one of the little DeVilles the first year they came out. It was actually a great car. Lost in a flood in 1989.

Man have lost a little sheen, which isn’t a bad thing. Still easy to clean with just rinseless.
