    Clear Coat is Gone!!

    What do you mean the clear coat disapeared!? Did it peal away and you can see this, or does it just look really faded? Some pictures would really help. If it is just faded/oxidized, that can be brought back.

    Law of Diminishing Returns ??

    Me, an economics student? I dropped/flunked out of my first year of college 2 years ago and haven't looked back since :D The MR=MC flew right over my head and I didn't get that one.... But I know detailing like the back of my hand! :righton:

    Law of Diminishing Returns ??

    What it means is in terms of 'layering' waxes. The idea that most people have on layering waxes is something like this: take a piece of paper, and now lay it down on the table; this represents the first layer of wax. Now take another piece of paper, and this will represent the second layer...

    Leather

    Meguiar's detailing line leather cleaner/conditioner and their Gold Class leather spray are my favorite maintenance products for leather. They are cheap, don't leave the leather feeling sticky or slippery, and don't give it a fake shine either; it just leaves the leather looking and feeling...

    Favorite Carnauba Wax!!! Ever...

    Carnauba based, or waxes with Carnauba in them? My vote would have to go to either Meguiar's #16, #26, or Gold Class. I am undecided on them because they each have such a unique property.

    Nagging question on glazes and swirls

    Hey, just thought I would throw this into the equation as well since someone mentioned X-Kote. Did a little research into the X-kote matter, and from what I gather, there almost no way for you to actually buy the stuff, rather you have to go to a distributor and have them apply it for you...for...

    Nagging question on glazes and swirls

    Yeah, I understand that whole part, but the part that bothers me is that no one has created the 'bondo' type of product to actually fill in the scratches that are repairable (as in they have not gone through the clear coat). I mean I am certain the demand for such a product is universal and...

    Nagging question on glazes and swirls

    This has been bothering me for weeks now, and I can't seem to find the answer to it! As we all know, pure polishes/glazes like M7 and some waxes like NXT 2.0 have the ability to hide minor swirls/hazing. My question is how come they can do this, but they can't seem to fill the bigger scratches...

    New Meguiars Products

    I am talking about the actual wash, not the quick detailer: Meguiars Flagship Premium Marine Wash

    New Meguiars Products

    I was thinking about the Flagship marine wash! Makes the water sheet off? That would make drying the car a lot easier if it works like that!

    Maintaining in fillers

    My perspective on the whole point with the spray wax for maintenance is that the fillers in NXT tend to wear out rather quickly (even on 2.0), and that the spray wax is an easy way to restore these fillers. That was my thinking at least. On a side note; I had some store credit to Pepboys...

    Detailing Products and Cost - just some ramblings...

    I have been wondering this same thing! It is without a doubt more important, so it has bewildered me on this exact same subject! What we should do is make a list/poll on what we would expect the 'ultimate' polish, pads, and whatever goes into the prep work to be like!

    Maintaining in fillers

    I hear ya on the money part! Awesome pictures though! My car is actually wearing NXT 2.0 at the moment, so I know just how well it works. I have some store credit at Pepboys so I think I am going to go buy some of their stuff along with NXT Spray wax. The only part that bothers me about the...

    Maintaining in fillers

    Yeah for the $25, you really can't go wrong, though I would get the warranty for the extra $5 or so because after my experience, the thing will almost defiantly break! Even so, $30 and you can polish out your car. It really is a shame that I simply do not have the time anymore, and probably...
