    Detailing with Diabetes

    Derrick, I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis. I have heard that the M105/m205 purple wool pad "kevin brown" method really speeds up the process and in general m105 seems to be a quality polish.

    What would you have done different?

    I ordered the flex, menzerna products ccs pads,,but havent used them as of yet. I'm not sure if you're referring to just paint correction but if you have alloy/aluminum/chrome wheels I suggest you get a good wheel brush/safe wheel cleaner (ie the much hyped p21s gel) and after cleaning and...

    tire dressing

    I use Poorboy's World Bold N Bright Tire Dressing, its a cleaner and tire shine product in one. I usually clean the tires with tire foam and just apply the poorboys to clean tires for shine, its waterbased and leaves a satin-like shine. For a less messy application I use a microfiber towel and...

    Sealer choices??

    Im sorry to revive an old thread but I thought that other may have the same question at some point. Waxman (or anyone that has used both) how would you compare wolfgang dgps 3.0 to gloss-it gloss finish? which gives more of a wet look to the paint? I am after the maximum wet look sealant.

    I thought I knew something-but I know nothing

    I agree, dont even waste your time or money with 90% of car care products from kmart/walmart/autozone/etc.. I saw a difference of night and day between the crap at the local stores and the quaility products i purchased after doing some research on proper car care. I no longer use the crap i...

    Car Bra/Bumper Cover

    I am considering the clear flim for the front and rear bumpers. venturesheild is one brand that ive looked into. Ideally it should be installed by a professional but ive read that you can find kits on ebay and do the install yourself. I guess you can first look into the clear plastic film...

    Can swirl marks be polish out by hand?

    Hey Buffguy, welcome! I'm not a pro, but I believe that adding some pics of the swirls to this post will allow the pros on here to give you great advice. In order to correct your paint and decide what products to purchase, you will have to do some research to understand the car...

    Why Did I buy a black car!

    Of course thats a hot car, i didnt test drive but sat in it when i was car shopping. I personally think you should get rid of the front plate. I know its law in nj/ny but in my opinion it kills the look of the car. Im in nyc,, have been driving with the back plate only for almost 5 months...

    AJ Auto Detail: CL550 Full Detail

    Great job,, I like your attention to detail! great pics and write up too. From the before pictures,, it looks like the swirls were moderate. Can you explain what pad you used with M105? In your opinion is the SIP strong enough to take any swirls out of the hard ceramic clear coat?
