    Wash media options for Rinseless washing...

    I use the LC blue sponge. Interesting, I've never noticed a problem squeezing it out or rinsing it. I'm all for trying something else out though for comparison.

    Winter Battle Plan Poll

    I plan on claying, stripping the current sealant with p21s paintwork cleanser, starting with menzerna powerlock and finishing with collinite 915. I'm also investing in waterless washes every time they go on BOGO to keep up the washing off the Iowa winter gunk on a regular basis.

    Normal winter maintenance...

    Are you saying that the LC blue sponge causes scratches? I'm using two of these sponges right now to do both my DP wash and gloss and normal washes. Or are you saying you cut up a cheap sponge to resemble the LC blue channel grooves and it didn't work the same? Just wondering, thanks.

    some suggestions for autogeek!

    Not to hijack, but to simply expand on the gift certificate thing and ask a question. If I have an order for say $100 to start, then use a $20 gift certificate, do I still get the free shipping? The order was over the 95 dollars, but after the gift cert I end up paying 80. Just wondering, I...

    Anyone do Leather/ Vinyl & Fabric Repairs?

    Do a quick search for liquid leather on amazon..not good reviews at all. I have no solutions but I hope someone else can chime in. I have vinyl seats that are starting to crack a little and am wondering what I can do as well. I'll keep following your thread.

    Holograms + 7424XP why ? help :(

    Try and get a pic up here before you go back to work on it. I'm no pro, but there are pro's on here that will probably be able to offer some sound reasoning on what you might have done wrong. (In addition to all of Mike P.'s tips, which of course are excellent). So again, :Picture:

    1994 bmw

    OK this BMW is my father in laws and it was absolutely trashed. I showed him spots where I would not even attempt at getting deep scratches out. It also has some bondo (sp?) work on the bottom in places with a little rust showing, which I also avoided entirely. The process: 1. Started...
