    About paint hardness

    1. Obviously, on harder paint surfaces, more aggressive products will have to be utilized in order to remove defects effectively. More effort and time will also be needed to correct defects on a car with harder paint. Fortunately, harder paints are also more resistant to scratching. Swirls are...

    Couple of questions regarding detailing a 350z

    I have used anything from ranging from UC, ScratchX, PO106FA, to PO203 on it. Use whatever polish you have available and it should be fine. Try avoiding heavy compounds to ensure a smooth finish. Tape up the surrounding to protect the rubber and glass and polish it. This trim scratches really...

    Does AG currently carry the 7/8" x 15' 3M Double Sided Tape?

    Thanks :) Do you have some that is 7/8" instead of 1/2" ? Half an inch is a tad too small.

    Does AG currently carry the 7/8" x 15' 3M Double Sided Tape?

    Hellos, I will be placing my order soon for my refill of Menzerna products. I am in need for some 3M double sided tape in the width of 7/8" to install some new bodykits and decklid spoiler on my 335i coupe. I notice that AG sells similar product with the width of 1/2", which is a little small...

    Best Finishing Polish

    I've played around with PO106FA and PO85RD with some blue finishing pads and the Makita. Honestly, side by side, applied in the same manner, I could not tell the difference between the two in terms of gloss on my solid black Nissan Maxima with medium-hardness paint. Both looked great. Maybe...

    Best Finishing Polish

    As stated, M205 doesn't finish as well as some of the ultra fine diminishing abrasives polishes from Menzerna. M205 finishes really close to PO203. To most, that is just the start of the correction. Ultimately how well M205 finishes really depends on the pad being used. Much have discussed...

    Life span of a Lake Country pad

    I have gone through a couple of orange pads. I use them mainly at speed 6 with the DA or 1700rpm with the rotary, along with products such as M105, UC, Menzerna SIP, and some other compounds. When they wear out, the foam start to "fray" somewhat and not retaining products as well as when they...

    That's great to know. I am sure that putting Lake Country in the Polishin' Pal sales description woudl really help you sell more of the Polishin' Pal Package. It is a killer deal for $19.99 for six pads + a handle compared to 14.99 for only four pads. ;)

    Is the Polishin' Pal Kit Foam Pads of Lake Country?

    A while ago I made a purchase of the Wolfgang Polishin' Pal Kit. This is what the kit looks like: Wolfgang Polishin’ Pal is an ergonomically shaped urethane handle that holds specially designed foam pads using hooks & loops. However, there's no mention that these 3.5" pads are made by Lake...

    Dealership Wash Job...

    Sorry to hear that. What I usually do is that I tape a piece of paper on the windshield with "DO NOT WASH" written on it.

    Red or Gold CCS use

    Good advices! Like many, I use the red to apply only sealant. I haven't tried the gold yet, but I would love to soon! The gold should be great for applying a pure wax, which is what the gold is advertised for. Personally, I use the blue pad more often for applying an ultra fine polish as it...

    How to use a Discussion Forum to Detail an Engine

    YES, thank you for pointing that out, Mike! One has to keep in mind on older, higher mileage engines, their seals have shrunk and deteriorated to the point where they do not effectively seal the engine from oil. Instead the cruds and dirt on the engine act as a seal to prevent the engine from...
