    Facebook Detailing group?

    After seeing this thread I joined the FB group a couple of days ago. Unfortunately, pretty much finding it useless and will likely drop from it.

    Xpel and light correcting polish

    My installer said a light polish/AIO would be ok, but definitely move quickly (don't work to break it down) the heat generated would melt the XPEL. I've just avoided polishing it all together.

    What did Santa Bring your for Detailing.

    A $100 gift card, told wifey to wait until I saw them go at 20% off (she was getting impatient since I hadn't given her many other ideas).

    Help me talk a friend out of selling cars

    I read a pretty long article on Edmunds some time back about this guy that sold cars then wrote the article about it and people were saying it's pretty accurate. Maybe refer your friend to that, and see if it's up his alley.

    What was your very first car you owned?

    Re: What was your very frist car you owned? LOL, quite a coincidence. Mine was super reliable too, sold it at 100K miles to a co-worker and they pretty much treated it they way you treated yours :rolleyes: That thing was SO underpowered, slowed down a few mph every time I turned the a/c on...

    What can be done about a fake yelp review?

    Brondon: I would suggest if you have the opportunity to edit your reply to clean up the verbiage, do so. The message is good and you kept it very professional, but the misspellings and typos leave a little to be desired (IMO).

    What to use after clear bra is applied

    I use a sealant on mine. Was told by the installer that carnubas "can" yellow the film. Don't know the truth to that, but I use sealant on the paint anyway, so it just carries over to the film (either Klasse or Duragloss).

    Looking some advice on what to do after Pinnacle advanced swirl remover

    I first was introduced to/used the Pinnacle twins at one of the training classes at AG. Was very impressed and purchased for my own use, have only used them together with great success so that's the Finishing Polish is all I would recommend after the swirl remover.

    Does Poorboy's Black Hole stain trim?

    I used it (actually Pockets applied it) one the year at a detailfest on my silver Mazda6, and it definitely added a depth and pop to the paint without muting the metallic flake. I ended up buying a bottle, but in reality never used it since I didn't want to compromise the adherence of my...

    ISC Helicopter Tape/Racer's Tape - good temp surface protection ?

    I used this on my mountainbike to protect the pain from the cable housing (brake and shift). This stuff is pretty durable, but I don't know that I'd feel comfortable putting it on my car paint since I'd be afraid of it taking the paint off with it during removal. With that being said: I...
