    Ok I Understand Pride In Your Vehicle But....

    Pulled into a parking lot the other day to pick up some cleaner and saw this, I just had to take a picture. Now I'm not judging here as I don't care one bit if someone wants to double park, and I certainly understand pride in a vehicle, but doesn't it seem a little weird that this old 240 was...

    How Much Does Wax "Really" Do For Perfect Paint?

    Is it more "wishful thinking" that it is making a major difference in appearance or is it really a "major" factor in paint that is near perfect from polishing, just curious on people's thoughts, I've been researching a ton and like hearing people's different opinions. Personally I don't see...

    Finally Figured Out My "Cloudiness" Issue When Rubbing The Paint

    The "haze" is after it has been buffed off and looks perfect. Then if you take a clean towel and rub the clean paint, this "haze" will appear for a few seconds like something is on the car but you can't see it until you "activate" it by rubbing it, does that make sense? Yes, deep red as in my...

    Finally Figured Out My "Cloudiness" Issue When Rubbing The Paint

    I thought you were not suppose to use UQW as the first product on paint, it was meant to go on top of a wax right?

    Help me choose a quick detailer

    Hmm, probably everyone will have a different answer but here is mine. I fell in love with Adam's detail spray from the first time I used it. It was unlike any OTC stuff I had used. It worked as stated and smelled awesome, so I bought a gallon. When I ran out I wanted to try Griot's Speed...

    Finally Figured Out My "Cloudiness" Issue When Rubbing The Paint

    Thanks for the reply. Well just for kicks I went and picked up a tin of Mother's Pure Brazilian Carnauba Paste Wax, not the cleaner one, the Pure one. Put it on after an IPA wipedown and then retried the Megs UQD. Still got the same effect only much less, so there is something to it reacting...

    Finally Figured Out My "Cloudiness" Issue When Rubbing The Paint

    Problem has been driving me nuts for a long time so I decided to strip everything off the front facia and go one product at a time to see when/if I could duplicate an annoying thing on my paint. When my car is clean and I am wiping it with a microfiber towel, say after drying it or something...

    Two bucket vs Garry Dean wash

    Didn't read all the responses so don't know if my process has been mentioned but I kind of use a hybrid of 2BM, WW and RW. I start with RW in one bucket, then a clean water bucket, grit guards in both. Then I use a microfiber wash mitt just like I would using the 2BM only I prime the panels...

    Kids playing near my truck is worrying me

    A lot of good advice here, and some not so good I think. In my last house we had awful neighbors, I mean the kind that are "known" for blocks and blocks around as being "those kind of people" if you know what I mean. Not only were they horrible but their kids were mini versions of their awful...

    LA Totally Awesome!?!?

    Hey all, I read a couple of threads on here, not sure how I came across it except for I was trying to figure out a way to clean my tires from gross old dressing and aging brown spots. I worked for a good 10 minutes using Simple Green 1:1 for and a scrub brush. When I was done the 3rd time it...

    Incredibly Cheap Finds

    I have to say I just picked up a bottle of this and I have to say wow, I'm actually speechless. I tried 3 times to clean a tire with old dressing and brown staining to no avail with simple green. I sprayed this LA stuff on and literally the brown started running off, I couldn't believe it...
