    worth getting a paint coating?

    This is exactly why i'm looking at coatings ! I love the look of a freshly detailed car but sadly don't have the time. I realised if I can not coat certain parts of the car to save costs but use my remainder 845 on it. Have you noticed any difference between Opt and Pinnacle ?

    worth getting a paint coating?

    Hello all, I'm finding it harder and harder to spend time detailing the car. So i'm considering just applying a coating to it myself. Plus really like the fact it protects against bird bombs. Is the aftercare process just washing the car ? or do I still have to polish out scratches, clay and...

    Spray wax after washing?

    Generally I wash every 2 - 3 weeks (weather here sucks). So I thought a spray wax in between will protect more but looks like it isn't worth it. Weirdly enough I find the beading really tight and great first few weeks but after that or a couple of washes the beading is fairly normal. Thank...

    Spray wax after washing?

    Yeah it was just since I do a full detail every few weeks I was going to use Duragloss aqua wax after every wash. Wasn't sure if it was useful or not. Do you know what I should be looking out for? Can I use spray wax on glass? I want to use it on my panoramic sunroof to keep the black part...

    Spray wax after washing?

    Hello all, Just wondering if ive got collite 845 on the car but wondering if it's fine to use a spray wax after I wash it to help keep it protected? Someone told me it's bad to do it as you're putting wax on top of contaminated paint. Also does duragloss 901 is fine to use in a foam...

    Worth getting a car cover ?

    I live in a fairly windy area. I don't mind washing the car before hand and it will be waxed. I'm just concerned about dirt getting in there and scratching the paint for 12 days. I'll research more about those car tents.

The object is held on by a huge chunk of adhesive and no amount of pulling seems to remove it. looking at the cheapest and easiest way to remove this but not sure what that might be. I originally thought heat...

    Worth getting a car cover ?

    Thought about that but it works out to be $150 - $250. I might just have to cough up the money and get an expensive cover. Just seems like such a waste of money since I won't be using it heaps. I was hoping to spend $50

    Worth getting a car cover ?

    The ones rated for outdoor are really expensive. I would be using this for 14 days, then maybe 45 days next year.

    Worth getting a car cover ?

    Hello all, I'm going on a 14 day cruise and will need to protect the car from bird bombs, especially under the hot Aussie summer. It will be a one off use or maybe once a year use thing whilst I travel. My main concern is do the covers scratch the car even after washing ?

    Car paint looking dirty

    Hello all, I've bought a used car and due to getting some damage fixed and heavy rain, i've finally gotten to around to washing the car after 4 weeks. I've noticed though that certain small sections of the car the paint seems "dirty" like the paint is stained with a slight tinge. You have to...

    Collinite #845: The Definitive How-To Guide For This Legendary Wax

    Did the full detail yesterday, but this time I put Collinite 476 first and then 845 12 hours later. One thing I noticed is usually when I lay just 845 first the cars paint is slippery buttery glass smooth. This time it was smoothish but felt really dry. I even didn't notice any haze on either...

    How do you care for your wash mitt?

    I've found many posts about caring for microfibre towels but non for caring for your wash mitt. In the past I have been lazy and just left it at the bottom of the bucket to air dry. Now days I rinse under water to get all the gunk out, leave it outside to dry on the line and then put it in an...
