    Um...Yes please

    When I think about Bead Maker, I touch myself(‘s paint).

    Um...Yes please

    I have it on my car and Megs HCW on my wife’s. (There’s a thread that I posted on here somewhere that shows both) At the end of the day, the HCW is better at beading and more durable for sure, but.... I keep ordering and using BM on my car because of the feel and gloss. I’m a sucker for the...

    Best Cheap Microfiber Towels

    I love these towels for the money. Why do you suggest washing before use? Is that *really* necessary? Honest question because I'm just lazy and have a bag of new ones in my garage right now. lol

    Best Cheap Microfiber Towels

    I’m fine with the Kirkland towels. And for the price, easily replaced.

    The Post a Picture of Your Ride as it Sits Thread

    Oh. I was unaware of that thread. That explains why you said it’s nice to see something positive about it. I wondered because all I see our positive things.

    Yes. Its durability isn’t the best but it’s so easy to apply, that it’s an acceptable trade off for me.

    The Post a Picture of Your Ride as it Sits Thread

    My car was rained on the day before. This pic is of a car with Bead Maker on it, the day after being rained on. When I walked up to it, I was surprised at how 'clean' it looked. Up close, you'd see that it was perfectly clean, but Bead Maker sure helped it stay cleaner after rain. Washed it...

    New Guy here from well, my name gives that away :)

    I'm highly considering that. Do we work on our own cars or body panels?

    Never Seen This ... Touch Up paint ran down out of original spot

    Hmm. Not sure why. One thread was regarding my overall first time to full detail with my DA on this car. I mentioned the paint in there, but it wasn't a focus? Maybe that's the confusion. Sorry.

    Newbie: tons of reading and hours of watching videos, finally used my DA and did a two step on wife's 2018 MB

    It took me some time to get over the 'fear' of using the DA after years of doing things by hand or paying someone to do it. Weather this weekend in Houston sucks, but I got a window with no rain to give it a good wash, then pull into the garage for the rest. Tools and supplies: Purple Power...

    Never Seen This ... Touch Up paint ran down out of original spot

    Re: Has anyone had this issue? Touch up paint running down the panel more than a week later... Thanks. I did a full detail on the car for the first time. I'm going to post another thread about it, but clay basically took it off. I'm going to try Dr. Color Chip next.

    Never Seen This ... Touch Up paint ran down out of original spot

    Re: Has anyone had this issue? Touch up paint running down the panel more than a week later... Good idea in testing it. I will do that before using it again. In the mean time, any idea on how to remove it from my original paint? When the weather is right, I'm going to fully wash, clay, and...

    Never Seen This ... Touch Up paint ran down out of original spot

    Re: Has anyone had this issue? Touch up paint running down the panel more than a week later... No solvent but I did alcohol. I did shake plenty. It didn’t run until more than a week later.

    Never Seen This ... Touch Up paint ran down out of original spot

    Has anyone had this issue? Touch up paint running down the panel more than a week later... My wife has a Mercedes (2018 model). On the front bumper, she got a large rock chip that I filled in with Mercedes touch up paint from the dealer. I let it dry and it seemed to be fine, but more than 2...

    Never Seen This ... Touch Up paint ran down out of original spot

    So, my wife's Mercedes had a rock chip. I put touch up in it, and allowed it to dry. It was there for more than a couple of weeks, but shortly after, I noticed the spot/chip was back, and below it... the paint has run down! Is this normal?? Wow. It was Mercedes OEM touch up that I bought from...
