    2012 Honda Fit

    I think the official color is, "Blue Raspberry". Here are a couple of pictures. Best thing about it for me, the paint is exceptionally slick. Wife is now ready for school to start. The paint process: ONR, Iron-X, Clay w/Pinnacle clay bar, Pinnacle Paintwork Cleansing, Pinnacle Black Label...

    Mini Cooper

    Thanks for the suggestions, I'll give them a try. I didn't include a thorough cleaning of the wheels because the paint was in worse condition that he thought. It's interesting when people say, "The paint's basically in good condition." Given the time restraints, which I agreed to, the priorities...

    Mini Cooper

    A customer dropped off a blue body with white trim Mini Cooper w/turbo. There was a time limit on getting the job done and I explained what I could do given the time limit and everything was cool. Basically my job was to clean the paint up and make it shine. I ran across a couple of issues that...

    Best wax for White car

    From what I have learned over the years, what makes a car "pop" is the preparation before the wax: properly washed, Iron-X, clayed, and appropriately polished. I don't know that any one wax has been scientifically designed specifically for white paint, it comes down to personal preference. To...

    3 miles on the odometer and the paint is contaminated

    I've detailed quite a few new cars straight from the lot with virtually no miles on them. How badly the iron returns depends on too many variables. I did my annual detail on a 2006 Accord, 84,000 miles and there was no iron denomination. Around the same time I did a 2014 Corolla, can't remember...

    Unbelievable!! Pollen Hell !!

    It's been insane in San Antonio. Instead of driving through fog I've been driving through waves of pollen that looks like a fog- no exaggeration. I just keep a bucket of ONR ready.

    Micrfiber towels color code system help.

    This is a fair question and I know you're serious but I'm laughing reading this because some of the folks on this forum are uber obsessive. The answers should be entertaining and instructive. I have always gotten my microfiber from AutoGeek. My non-obsessive answer is: Guzzler Waffle weave...

    Paint Decontamination Question

    Hey Guys, thanks for the information and for correcting my misunderstandings. I'll continue to use Iron-X and a claying process.

    Paint Decontamination Question

    To decontaminate paint I currently use ONR as a wash, Iron-X, and Pinnacle clay with ONR at lube strength. I am also experimenting with Optimum's "Eraser". As I understand it, I can use Nanoskin's Autoscrub System to replace both Iron-X and any claying process or Optimum's eraser. Is that...
