Depending on the level of polution in your area rain water can cause spots, because the rain absorbed particulates on its way down (such as evil pollen) and/or because it is acidified by airborn pollutants.

I think even naked clearcoat can self-heal from bird bombs to some extent. Last summer i got at least 4 bombs that left dull patches on the paint. Now recently, after trying ONR i inspected my paint thoroughly and tried to find the old etchings but all i could find was the first new one from...

Indeed $3000 is really not worth it just for clear, i was curious though so i asked. I only have a daily driver, not a collector's car, but i think its good info to hold on to. And besides, failing clearcoat might be an excuse to get a really special color if you wish to repaint lol. I keep...

Thanks Avi! I was thinking of applying it to my step-father's new Rav4. I love this forum, the experts who actually work on creating the products are right here to help us!

I know cost probably varies a lot depending on where you are, but what kind of bill can be expected to add extra clear on paint in excellent condition?

Depending on your wife's paint condition you might want to get some WG Total Swirl Remover and a couple orange pads as well. This will remove medium swirling that might be present after a couple of years on the road. And welcome to Autogeek!

Good question, i'd like to know the answer to this as well. And welcome to Autogeek!

I wrote reviews for these 5 products. I purchased UTTG and ONR in Canada but i figure they work just as well in the USA :dblthumb2: Ultima Tire & Trim Guard Plus, tire & trim protectant, tire dressing, rubber protectant Optimum No Rinse Wash & Shine: clay lubricant, optimum rinseless wash, no...

That sucks. Now i kinda feel bad for using Millipore products in the lab i work at... Did you do the math to try to do conservative revenu predictions from a full-time detailing job?

Is this open to international customers? Shipping this small jar to Canada could be more expensive than the jar itself lol :poke:

I see, so i guess it would be better suited for white since darker colors will lose depth from internal reflection and/or light scattering at the interface between CC layers? What kind of prep would be needed? Sanding to help the new layer bond?

As we all know some cars have very very soft paint that no number of sealant or wax coats can adequately protect from daily scratches. The easiest way to aleviate the problem right now is to apply a semi-permanent coating such as CQuartz or OptiCoat, but even that will provide only partial...

Having a fixed focal length with no extra lenses can be a challenge when you are used to always having a zoom. You could set your zoom to 50 and do a test. If you can manage to take all the pictures you want without changing the focal length, go ahead and upgrade to a fast 50. They are very...

I don't think i have any phobias. I hate spiders though, they creep me out. If i know there's a spider in my bedroom i won't be able to sleep until i kill/move it. If i try to stomp it and miss and it falls/skitters behind some furniture i will shift the whole room to reach the intruder, no...
