One more user experience I want to share: There’s a YouTube video out there in which Renny Doyle mentions the reason behind using so much Bead Maker for initial application, “ The microfiber towel soaks up the product.” Hearing this, I decided a different method of application. I used a...

My daily driver is ceramic coated. I figured I’d have some fun and top it with Bead Maker. 🤯 Most improved gloss I’ve seen using a topper. And my car stayed cleaner, a few days longer than usual. I live on a horse ranch, and there’s plenty of dust here. Bead Maker has never “attracted” more...

I found a fun new hobby this year. I also have a Strat and a Tele. [emoji450] Don’t ask me to play you anything. But I sure can spend all my money on these things!

Rag Company Eagle Edgeless 350gsm. I like the purple ones. AutoGeek is out of stock on them. They refunded that part of my order earlier this month, due to an unknown “back in stock date”. No lint or sticky stuff left behind. I have several varieties of their MF towels and some of them do...

Yes! You can do it! Absolutely worth taking care of. OCD for the win! My secret sauce is a hybrid two-step polishing method (newer cars) if not using a compound (older cars). Basically a cleaner polish followed by Carpro Essence or Xtreme Solutions LVR 404. Let cure and top it...

Yeah, the luggage rack is a classic touch. However, I removed the top part to polish the paint. I really do enjoy the cordless FLEX XCE. I used that and the FLEX 3” polisher for the entire detail. Here’s a before & after contrast of the single stage paint’s oxidation: ...and with the...

Lee, I leave the 403 on the paint for about thirty minutes and it wipes off like butter. So smooth and slick once removed. Those acrylic resins go to work and bond quite well on old or new finishes. You can add whatever protection you wish (optional cure time would be overnight to 24 hours)...

1992 Mazda Miata (red) 130,000 miles New top. Upgraded wheels, brakes, suspension and a muffler. Complete owner history unknown. Car came from Idaho and is proudly female owned in Southern California. Front 2/3’ has clear coat and was most likely repainted. Rear was oxidized and...

I may have lost a potential customer. Brand new Miata, owner just wants a coat of wax on it. I can’t bring myself to do it without doing the full polish and paint decontamination before doing wax. “I’ll get back to you.” That always leads to them never getting back to me. But, I want to...

This. I get asked from people, “well I scratch my car if I…“ Anytime you touch the surface of your car you could possibly scratch it. How to minimize scratching? Use a very powerful leaf blower or a specialty car drying one. It’s been said, “if you don’t try something different, you’ll...

So you’re saying it was the Graphene of the 1980’s? [emoji23] Sorry. I need some humor tonight. Even if it’s self-induced. [emoji846]

My first experience with the cordless model was not that of disaster. I let it do it’s thing and didn’t fight it. After a minute or so, I understood what was going on. And I’m a humble rookie. [emoji846]

^ Don’t feel bad. I bought a new car that had mysterious ghosting on almost every window. Without using a machine polisher, it took me way too long to get rid of them. Multiple steps of whatever cleaner I could find, along with a clay bar. Even Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. No way was I going to...

Cloudy, with dramatic sunsets lately.

Xtreme Solutions: Topper

I walked out onto the driveway one morning and saw that I was late for breakfast: Cooper Hawks

Many days parked at the beach had my Soul covered in dried salt spray. Rain is coming this weekend, but I thought it’d be best to wash it off. Sometimes it’s just a sprinkle, and thoughts of reactivated salt spray running halfway down the car and drying...well, maybe I’m paranoid. Ethos Foam...

Six months post-application of Cquartz UK3.0 & Gliss. Iron-decon’d the wheels and paint with Ethos wheel cleaner Ethos Foam party wash Topped with Xtreme Solutions Topper It’s like a fresh layer of gloss was added.

^ Huh...I don’t see them either. [emoji848]
