    Wax removal from plastic ........?

    I was hoping to find Griot's Dried On Wax Remover on site but didn't, is there a 2nd alternative that works well? I just don't want to ruin the plastic as so many products will dull it forever. Thansk, Howard

    Polish remover....

    Interesting comment as I got some holograms too, I thought it was just bad technique on my part but maybe it was from washing. Howard

    Polish remover....

    What is the general consensus on what you use to remove polish both to see your work and then afterwards when complete? Are you using IA or high-temp, Prep All, Menzerna Top Inspection, etc.? Just curious of a cost effective way to do this but also one that works so the sealant bonds well...

    Left polish on overnight...how to remove?

    Thanks guys for the help, I just went over the area with Menzerna Micro Polish with a black LC pad, worked well. The polish was stubborn as even the QD didn't work. For those that asked I left on the Micro Polish Thanks again, Howard

    Left polish on overnight...how to remove?

    Started polishing my car yesterday and wanted to finish this morning but noticed I left a whole door with polish on overnight. It won't wash off with regular car wash, 3M wax Remover or IA. Will I need to repolish the area or is there something else I can use? Howard

    MF Towels, all purpose use?

    When I first started to work on my car about 2 1/2 yrs ago I bought separate towels for each step of the process. A buffing towel just didn't absorb water and a drying towel just wasn't plush enough to do a quick detail. But I now see statements like this. Use this ultra thick, XL...

    Bug Spatter Removal?

    I have had the Pinnacle scrubber for a while but very afraid to use it as it is so rough. With so much emphasis placed on not creating swirls/scratches by using two buckets, using microfiber towels, using a leaf blower, etc. but then using this sponge, it just doesn’t match up. I'm just...

    pop up canopy

    Don't you still have the issue of the sun hitting your car based upon how high or low it is that day? I would assume a canopy where the sides have fabric also would be the best so you wouldn't have to keep adjusting where the car sits inside the canopy. I know BBQ people, in competitions, use...

    Any significant differences between Guzzlers?

    I have 2 of the large guzzlers but wanted to buy 2 more large drying towels but wasn't sure if there is any significant advantages of one over the other.....the Guzzler vs. the Ultimate Guzzler vs. the HD Guzzler? When I did a Search there wasn't much out there for comparisons. Thanks, Howard

    Do you complete detail over 2 days?

    This will be my 2nd time trying this (did it the first time last year aound mid-summer in my garage) so I and was wondering if the general consensus is people take off a Friday or Monday from work or not to complete this.

    Aquapel - let it dry or not?

    I'm reading around that people are using a paste of Bon Ami and water while others are using straight IA. Other than those, do you think I can just use Klasse AIO and then.......not sure what else would be needed. Never spent much time on the windows till now. Howard

    Aquapel - let it dry or not?

    I was going to apply my first application of Aquapel this weekend. Was planning to follow directions not to let it dry but I now see posts where people have let it dry, more difficult to remove the haze, but longer lasting. What has everyone been doing? Howard
