The DP interior stuff made me ill feeling. Its like a mix of synthetic banana and brake cleaner.

Not laughing at you in particular or anything, but the image in my mind of an old timer wrestling with a PC and chunks of compound flying everywhere made me chuckle a bit. Dont worry, we've all been there. Nobody figures out perfect technique the first time.

Strong lights can reveal something remaining on the paint. Thats why I use IPA, 50% because I've seen residue with other 'prep' products. Its possible that residue might not interfere with the coating, actually it could be a catalyst I suppose, but Id rather be safe than sorry.

Nice job. I dont know what the deal is with those Avalanches, but almost every single one I see has badly faded trim.

Yeah its going to be tough getting customers with that attitude. I was going to suggest it might be better to start things up part time before dropping all that cash and jumping in the deep end. Basically just try to get a bit of spending cash doing a car every weekend for a couple years until...

Yeah you have to be careful, there are a lot of internet reviews that are either posted by 'friends' of the company, or people that get free products in exchange for good reviews. Before I try something new, I always check out Amazon reviews. Sure their might be a few fake ones, but if the...

Looks great. Actually it didnt look too bad to start, usually the Porshe threads the paint is completely trashed for some reason, this guy took care of it better than most.

I had to do a search to see what you were talking about, but just looking at that thing there is no way in hell I would touch my paint with it.

Hopefully Vettel can at least challenge Rosberg for his position, but I cant imagine a situation where Hamilton does not win the title again. Best ( or at least tied for best ) driver with the best car is going to win the title every year.

I would probably switch to real clay and a good lubricating detailer like Fk425, I think those nanoskin things require some ramp up time to avoid marring. But yeah, its pretty minor damage so it should come out with a good polish and a polishing pad, shouldent need to compound.

Its probably pretty safe, but I doubt anyone here knows what the leather is and how it is treated just by the option you ordered. In general GM coats their seats with clear vinyl for longevity, which would make virtually any product safe - but dont take my word for it.

Id probably stick in the bank and save up for a Rupes MkII.

I have those felt wheel liners on my MDX and hate them. I realize they insulate the sound pretty well, but why not put the felt on the inside of a plastic well so they are easy to clean? I mean how much can a couple feet of felt with adhesive backing cost in volume, 5$?

Id take the PPF if I owned the car. Since you leased, take the new steering wheel.

There are various products that when applied to rust, turn the surface a matte black. I've used it on undercarriage bits on previous cars, works good. Stops the rust also. Its probably all the same stuff so just buy whatever is cheapest.

Nice pics but you guys need to learn to spot the differences between a c5 and c6 corvette as several were mislabeled.

Yeah Salt-X is an anti-salt solution, and they make an APC called salt buster that is automotive safe. I use it on the paintwork and wheels as well and with the powerwasher it takes the road salt right off, good stuff. I cant really say for sure how good the Karcher wax works, but I have yet...

I had them ship me a whole case last year, so I am good to go for the next decade assuming 1xmonthly for each car during Nov->April.

Ive had one of these for a couple years. Works well. I use Salt-X APC, rinse, then follow with their 'wax'.

Just cant seem to pull the trigger on either the G15 or the MkII until I hear someone who has tried them both!
