    Out of Simple Green - what to use now?

    I would go with Meguiars APC & Meguiars Super Degreaser. If you are looking for just one, go with the APC, you can dilute 10:1, and I've even heard of 12:1. Very economical and effective! I haven't found much it doesn't take care of at the right dilution ratio. It will even take care of 95%...

    Interior Detailing Questions

    pdqgp is correct, an extractor is "best". However as long as you don't over saturate you can soak up with a towel, followed up with a good vacuuming.

    DA mistake??

    If it is what is circled (poorly) in blue, then this looks like 'haze' that can be fixed with a fine polish. If it is what is in green those appear to be deeper scratches that could potentially be removed with compound. Having never used Chemical Guys products, I can't offer much help in...

    beware of iron-x

    Out of curiosity, how many of those that have had "issues" were rinsing with a pressure washer? I use a PW and love it, but have found myself going back to hose & nozzle for rinsing. It seems the PW doesn't rinse out all the "nooks and crannies" as well. I suspects the water is coming out so...

    anything I need to know about cleaning interior with steam cleaner?

    I second this. I purchased a steamer and found that I spent more time with no noticeable benefit in results. I had to scrub/wipe/extract just as much with the steamer as I did my APC + Brushes and MF Towels. But as GSKR stated, everyone has their preference. The only consideration I...

    Driver side door not working after detailing

    Impressed to see how many Professionals on here's first concern was taking care of the customer and making it right! You all make the industry great! The shop I worked at (18-19 years ago) always did a very thorough inspection before starting work on a car. We tested all knobs, buttons, lights...

    Help With Deciding on a Polish

    Haven't used as many different polishes as most on here, but I've never found a reason to step away from M205 + M21 or Ultimate Wax. Forgot to add Meguiar's M80 is terrific for darks if you can find some.

    Help with cloth seats

    Yikes this is a tricky one. My wife has a '12 Cruze, and the fabric is tough to clean. The tight low/no nap weave traps everything. I have heard of Steam or even ironing as in theory you could "melt" away the coating. Never tried it myself. You could try an APC, but I would make sure to...

    Help with cloth seats

    From the best I can tell it looks almost "water stained". Is there a 'dirty' ring surrounding the discoloration? Perhaps the "protectant" darkened the fabric. You could try using the product again on a inconspicuous area, if you get the same discoloration.

    Help with cloth seats

    Hmmmm..... I've heard of the scotch guard cleaner just plain not working, but, never streaking. Would be interested in seeing pictures. My best suggestion would be rent an extractor.

    Exterior Trim Cleaning & Dressing - So confused

    Nice! That is encouraging. I worry about the road salt in the winter almost as much if not more than the sun here in Utah.

    Ultimate compound/polish vs color x

    M205 + Ultimate Wax has rarely failed me. I believe (I'm sure someone else Knows) Ultimate polish is the retail equivalent of 205, but breaks down easier under hand or random orbital application.

    Exterior Trim Cleaning & Dressing - So confused

    That looks incredible! Nice work! How long have you maintained the ReNu by applying the WETS on top of it?

    Exterior Trim Cleaning & Dressing - So confused

    Thanks for all the replies! It sounds like the consensus is "WETS" provides what I am looking for, at least for the trim. Is the Blackfire trim sealant pretty close to the wolfgangs? Looks like they are both mfg by Autogeek/PBMG.
