    Why isn't everyone using coatings if it is "better" than sealants?

    Why isn't everyone using coatings if it is "better" than sealants?

    Are you saying Mckees is layerable? I was told by PBMG that both Uber and PBL v2 will reject another layer of the coating once cured.

    Guzzler towel combo

    I used to like them a lot on hard paint. Since I got my Honda - its Marr city. I now use the Purple Plush 600gsm towels as my drying towels. Plush for the win as they literally dry the car in seconds. The guzzlers far from guzzle and require more than a couple passes to remove water and...

    Feeling stupid, product suggestions?

    What is the benefit of Nitrile over Latex? I had never heard the term until I saw a video featuring Mike Philips, and from then on, I hear it all the time. I just use latex gloves when I am doing anything car related thats horrible, like APC with tyres or exhausts and more recently coatings. I...

    Feeling stupid, product suggestions?

    LMAO! Nah man, I actually really like the product. It worked really really well for 2 cars I did last week. Next step is to try it in direct sunlight on black paint in 100 degree weather to get the awesome results the Megs Asia guy got. :D:buffing: Will dry out in seconds lol.

    Feeling stupid, product suggestions?

    M205 is a finishing polish though. However, its versatile as its pad and paint dependent. I did M205 with a black finishing pad on my car and it came out perfect due to soft paint. I have even tried it with a White pad and a orange cutting pad and it worked, but the orange pad left a little...

    Feeling stupid, product suggestions?

    Joe@NextLevelDetail just posted this another thread: Another reason why I have not tried DAT - as much as I want to. I love the fact that my current polishes just continue working and working - especially on hard paint. For example the Audi I just did.

    Interior Detailing: Spraying product on microfiber vs. directly on interior?

    Agreed. I used Meguiars Leather cleaner and conditioned on my Gti's steering and it was amazing, but the conditioner left it a little slippery. I had to though as I cleaned it after 1 year of owning the car. DOh! Since I got my Accord I have been on top of it so QID is allll i need and love it...

    Cleaning and protecting rubber trim around windows?

    Identical to what I do. Before WG trim sealant I used Aerospace 303 once. Both good protectants, but being a sealant I switched to it. :)

    Feeling stupid, product suggestions?

    I think he meant D156 and not D151. D156 is just plain amazing. D120 is also good, I just cannot get it here so I have not tried it. But friends of mine have it from when they used to stock it and swear by it. And m105 and M205 are good. However, if just for your DD then get the ultimate...

    You really like taking risks eh? Mixing PBL with Gyeon and now Stoners invisible glass on my vinyl steering!! By door panels you mean the hard plastic door cards yes? Seriously though, I will one day try this and I hope you ain't messing with me! :P What I do now is spray some meguiars QID on...

    What to do with the current coat of sealant and wax when the time comes to reapply?

    When I had hard paint, I would clay and re-apply the same sealant with zero issues. If I am changing it up, a cleaner or a very fine polish at least is what I would recommend Now with soft paint - Ive used a light polish twice in the one year ive had the car. So I can't comment on that tbh...

    Interior Detailing: Spraying product on microfiber vs. directly on interior?

    Seats and arm rests - Spray on the surface directly and agitate with a brush, wipe off with towel. Anywhere and everywhere else - Spray on towel or Spray into the fibers of the brush. For my own car I do interior after. For another couple of cars I did, I did interior first. EDIT: I don't...
