    Think I will just go back to Clay

    I havent used clay in quite some time since ive been using my Speedy Prep Fine Grade DX Pad. I added the hand strap option to it and it works wonders. I clayed a Silverado this weekend and it took me 45 minutes tops, would have taken way more than a hour with traditional clay.

    Optimum Car Wash - Correct Ratio???

    Chris, I also just picked up a gallon this after going through my 32oz bottle. How many oz should I add to my foam cannon? Ive been using 2oz mixed with .5oz of ONR and filled the rest of the cannon with distilled water. Am I using too much car wash solution?

    The pics look like the same general area to me, albeit one is at a different angle. And as far as the difference I see a clear one, not sure what your looking at.

    Question about Condensation

    It does for me. Ive even tried to test it out with only sealing half of my roof and I ended up with water spots on the half that wasn't protected. Yes they will be there and will collect bits of dust on the car in the morning but its better than no protection at all :)

    The most over-rated products?

    Diablo gel strip wheel sealant ?

    In my experience with diablo gel it will not remove any sealants on the wheels. I have tried a few different sealants/waxes and I can tell you for sure it won't remove menzerna power lock, black fire crystal seal or optimum car wax. I also use it at 5:1 with no problems for anything but the...

    My electric power washer.. wat u think about them

    I recently purchased a greenworks 1700psi electric from lowes. Had it for two weeks now and I like it, also works good with my newly acquired foam cannon as well. I'm a weekend warrior so it suits me just fine but if you run a shop I'd say just get a good gas powered unit and have the electric...

    THE best paint sealant?

    Menzerna Power Lock is my go to for customers cars and my own on occasion. For dead simple application and speed id go for Blackfire Crystal Seal, can do a whole car in 10-20 minutes tops.
