    Coating question

    Unfortunately in the real world the majority of people on the road cant even maintain a proper protection on their car, basically rolling around in their bare clear coat as the main form of protection =( My car was previously leased and clearly shows these signs. You shouldnt go for the deep...

    Glass Coatings Particularly Cquartz UK

    Hey AG, I have been a wax/sealant guy myself, however I felt that depending on the conditions daily driving the car and despite manufacturers claiming 6-12 months durability I have been seeing 1-3 months durability on these products with regular maintenance. I really want to get on the coating...

    Review - CarPro Cquartz Leather Coating

    For a 2002 that leather has held up quite well. They surely dont make them like they used to these days. Once my leather needs a cleaning I have a sample of wolfgangs conditioner to try out. I have been using meguiars all purpose diluted at the lowest level and conditioning with leather masters...

    New to AG and Paint Correction

    No its not chipped through the paint it seems under it like divots. I was thinking micro water spots im not even sure if thats possible, these spots also make the paint look hazy not sure why under flourescent lights, in the sun it looks Gorgeous.

    Difference between ONRW&S and ONRW&W

    I see good point, I never realized that. How does that sponge work out for you. One of the reasons I never used it was because I was worried the dirt might not be fully released when rinsing and when going for another pass there might be more chances of micro scratching. I normally use fresh...

    Difference between ONRW&S and ONRW&W

    Why cut one leg off of the grit guard. I'm not understanding that. I never tried the sponge method I use 10-12 microfibers per car, and my solution never gets dirty.

    Pressure washer vs. Regular sprayer

    True that, I am lucky enough to live in an area where I can use water however I please, but for the majority of others in Socal are in a water restricted area (due to the drought), so the rinseless car wash method works great especially if maintained regularly. Sometimes I will take it to the...

    So, How many times do you wash your car?

    Once a week with ONR and and xpress and once every 1-2 months with m21 and pressure washer. Sometimes I lightly top with pinnacle souveran. By lightly, I mean very gently across the whole paint using least amount of product I can so that wipe off is super easy. Im not sure but some of the oils...

    RUPES 2" Backing Plate not for use with the rotary connector and the RUPES Nano iBrid

    What did you do to get it working again? The Rupes manual shows not to use the 2" plate with the rotary fitting. At least mine came with instructions regarding that issue. Gotta love AutoGeek, seriously whenever I purchase products here I know that my chemicals are fresh, I tried purchasing...

    Compounding right through a modern clear coat....

    Im no pro here, but it would have to take a lot to burn through, but that doesnt mean you should try it like I did:dblthumb2:. I've compounded one area multiple times and still no burn through. Actually the paint got better and better, not saying you should try this because Im sure it is risky...

    Rupes iBrid Nano comprehensive review (short neck and long neck)

    Great write up and off label use of the shroud, I didnt even know the plastic shroud came off but it was getting in the way when swapping out adapters and makes it much more easier. Kudos to Rupes to making such a cool tool.

    CarPro Essence:Cutting And Finishing Abilities Video (With different pads)

    Great review and great correction on the essence! This will be an amazing product to use on that almost new car with very minor swirls instilled from the dealer prepping for cquartz. I know the label says this polish will prep it for cquartz however would you recommend an eraser wipe down just...
