    Product issue I'm hoping AG resolves (Dodo Juice Red Mist QD)

    Do you shut off the spray nozzle after each use? That would help prevent the product from drying in it and clogging it, which is why most spray nozzles stop working IME.

    Cleaning sealant pad...

    I just had the same problem after using WG DGPS and Fuzion. Sealants are basically silicone compounds and they are not always removed by degreasers, and i guess Fuzion contains some too. I tried soaking them for 24h in DP pad rejuvenator but that didnt help at all, so i took out the big guns...

    Any way to convert OPM to RPM?

    I used the WG headlight kit last week-end, and that confused me too. I decided to take a guess and i set my PC to speed 4 using 4" pads, and i got excellent results. My headlights were heavily swirled but NOT cloudy or yellowed. It took the swirls right out and made the lenses as good as new...

    Why shouldnt we wash our car when the paint is hot??

    I usually use no more water than what i would use with the first rinsing step (to remove loose dirt). This doesnt make the surface cool, but it cools it down enough that the soap/water wont dry on it. By the time im done washing, the water coming out of the hose is ice-cold and the rinsing step...

    Tried Optimum Power Clean = :(

    I recently used OPC at about 2:1 for the first time to wash a stubborn polish stain off one of my wiper arms (forgot to tape them...) and i wasnt expecting my brush to turn black... The stain didn't stand a chance and my wipers look great! lol

    Why shouldnt we wash our car when the paint is hot??

    I wash my car when it's hot, but i park it in the shade and slowly mist it with the hose to cool it down first. The whole point is to prevent the soap and/or rinse water to dry on the paint and leave spots. The people that use automated car-washes generally don't care or simply don't know any...

    Start Up Kit for Father-in-law

    I would add a simple clay kit. It's easy to use and makes the paint feel awesome and easier to dry and wax since it grabs the towels less once the contaminants are removed.

    Remove deep scratches on my Rav4's tire cover

    Hm ok. If it's some type of clear bra wet sanding is not a good idea, i've read here before that it may not refinish well. That's the extent of my knowledge, i hope some more experienced members here can help you! That scratch is definitely not pretty...

    Rustoleum

    I'm wondering why no one mentioned IronX. I've used it to remove rust streaks, it turns rust purple and it washes off just like it does with iron (rust is just oxidized iron). Thats not what it was designed for, but it works. I don't know if these wheels are to far gone for something as simple...

    Remove deep scratches on my Rav4's tire cover

    Photos would help a lot. Does the scratch go through the clear coat and even the color layer? If yes all you can do (short of a repaint of the cover) is apply touch up paint to hide the underlying primer or plastic.

    Yesterday i did my first test spot on my car with Wolfgang Total Swirl Remover and Finishing Glaze. When i buffed off the TSR I was amazed! Then i saw all the deeper scratches left behind... I did a second run of TSR just to make sure, but they stayed there. My paint was in pretty bad...

    Autoglym HD application

    I used it for the first time this week-end. I does require some arm strength to apply and buff off (my shoulder is a bit sore lol), and its a bit dusty, but so far i'm liking the results. I'll try fuzion this week and compare the two.
