I bought a small bottle at a local gun show(works very well protecting outside of metal). I also tried it on my DD (a 2011 Insight that is outside 24/7) and it works pretty well. I think the difference between this and some newer WWs is that you use a lightly damp cloth to spread the DwG and...

Yes, these aonly have three. I haven't seen that since the oldCitroen 2CV.

Same. I feel your pain

@Francisco: fantastic job on the BMW. I love seeing "survivors" on the road. You gave the Beemer a new lease on life and I will echo the statements of others on this post. I really hope the kid appreciates that he is driving a true classic.

My beater 2001 GMC Sonoma (Black paint/ outside 24/7 in the varied temperature range that is typical of Maryland) has crow's feet on the hood/roof. It was that way when I came into possession of the vehicle 3 years ago. My plan of attack was using light polish initially and glaze prior to LSP...

I have a 2001 GMC Sonoma as my beater. It stays outside 24/7. When I bought it, it had not been waxed in ages. I use it as a testbed for new products and within the first weekend I had the car fully detailed. However, it is nice to know that I will occasionally take it through a car wash without...

This can be fixed by a proper detailer. The first step is a proper compound (likely with a rotary polisher or maybe a Rupes ), then follow up with finer and finer polishes (done with a DA). You mentioned that he tried to compound by hand. This is the probable cause of the haziness and dullness...

All I can say is WOW. I really liked the wrap job (typically not a fan of those), but the color combo and the attention to detail really make that car stand out. BTW, what is the longevity of a typical wrap?

Welcome, I live in Anne Arundel County.

While I do agree with his videos, I also concede that (especially living in Maryland in the winter) that touchless washes are better than nothing at all to remove the bulk of debris/brine/et al that accumulates. I know this is not perfect and that I will be doing a full detail in the Spring...

I saw a guy at the local Lowes with a brand new Nissan Maxima (with temp plates on no less). He decided in his infinite wisdom to stack 10 to 12 2x4x8 boards through the passenger front window towards the driver's rear window. I can only imagine the damage done to the door cards and maybe the...

I recently bought it at a local Advance. My Optimum No Rinse supply had finally dwindled, so I wanted/needed a new rinseless wash. To be quite honest, it works quite well. I do find ONR seems to leave a slicker surface, but for the price point this is a good product. I did use the one bucket...

Currently have a 1973 Superbeetle (sitting, waiting for engine work and some rust abatement). My daily driver is a 2011 Honda.

As "cleanmycorolla" stated it really depends on proper storage. Wild temperature swings will greatly affect the shelf life of any cleaning product.

Very nice. As someone whose wife went back to school to graduate with a BSN, I can only appreciate the amount of effort and time that degree entails. Her car looks properly ready for her new career.

I have heard about this trend. How hard/easy was it to set up? I really like the idea of an almost self contained system to grow plants without the need for external chemicals?

Are you going to the Carlisle show?

Ford Raptor

VW Cabriolet, VW Eos, VW New Beetle Convertible ( I like how VW restyled the new Beetle BTW), BMW 3 Series Convertible and unfortunately the Miata seems to fall into this category. However, I really enjoy flinging a Miata through a curvy road.
