OK, I have the touch up paint ordered, so just fill it a little for a couple of days, then finish it off with clear coat, and then level it with what ?

Well, pretty anal, especially with a new car, your method sounds pretty good though. :thankyousign:

I watched the video on the Langka, and thought it looked good but one of the reviews on it spooked me.

Need some help here please. Just bought my wife a new sportage turbo and drove up to St Louis to get it, on the way back apparently I got a small stone chip on the hood. I ordered the touch up paint from the dealer, it has the colormatched paint on one end and clear coat on the other. What is...

Great Job, that car looks completely different ! I too have a paint chip question. I have the paint chip bottle ordered from the factory, it has the color match on one end and clear coat on the other. Could you walk me through the steps on that, so it will look right ? Brand new Sportage Turbo...

Sorry, I wasnt very clear on that, I meant in the back of the parking lot, and as stated earlier I try and straddle the line, just in case someone does end up that far out. I guess it still could be a risk though.

Tried this on my black dodge charger police car tonight, and it worked great, just wasnt using enough elbow grease I guess. The meg uqd is quite a bit easier to use, but I will use up this bottle of spray glaze on the police car so it wont go to waste. I would have thought zymol would make a...

Chris That car is sweet ! I am getting ready to order a porter cable and a lot of products to start doing this with my cars. I hope thay look half as good as yours does. I have been trying to watch a couple of videos a night to get ready. :dblthumb2:

Thats a very good point, I try and be really careful with it, but there is always that chance. Hopefully, the car has stayed pretty clean through the day and I can just quick detail. By the way awesome stang.

In the most remote part of the parking lot there is usually, drop the wife off at the front door then go park, although half the time, invariably although there are 582 other parking spots, somebody will park next to me. I also try and take up two parking spots, and hope that doesnt tick someone...

Well, I do this in reverse, I am up in the driveway starting about 10:00pm after everyone has gone to bed washing the cars, drying and waxing or quick detailing, and it is a great way to relieve stress and get some solitude. I have great lighting in the driveway also which allows me to do this...

I havent used the zymol car wash yet, is it pretty good stuff ? I have used the meguiars, and the mothers so far. I picked up the meguiars uqd and it is great. I have been using the zymol spray glaze for the windshields as it seems to be pretty good for that.

Thanks for the welcome everyone. I am already learning a lot of things I didnt know about. Who knew there was so much to car detailing, and so many great things to buy for it. :buffing:

Thanks for all the advice, it is very helpful. I had been reading that you could layer several coats of wax for a deeper shine, giving the paint more depth, or at least that is what I was trying for. After several coats of wax, I was going to use the zymol to keep the dust off and as a...

Hi Tim, Mike here. I am from Northeastern Oklahoma, been a police officer here for 20+ years. Nice talking to you.

Hello, I have been trying to use some zymol spray glaze as a quick detailer, this is going over about five coats of meguiars gold class paste carnauba wax. My problem is the spray glaze seems to leave streak marks. Any ideas ? Thanks Feed back please

Hello to everyone, excalibur here, love reading the tips and ideas from everyone. I am a novice to the serious detailing scene and look forward to learning from everyone. Thanks
